Skating Club of JH
Jr. Learn To Skate Instructor Policy This Teaching Program is designed for our AA skaters who are interested in coaching Learn to Skate (LTS) classes. Our goal is to support and guide you on your journey to becoming an LTS group instructor! Please remember that this is considered a "job," so we ask that you carefully consider your availability before expressing interest. We are looking for skaters who can commit to being there weekly, not just "whenever it works best for you." The other instructors depend on your help for group LTS classes, and we appreciate the contributions many of you have made in the past! Please read through the details and reach out with any questions- |
