Hello
STARSkate is Skate Canada’s figure skating development program for skaters who have completed CanSkate and/or the RisingSTAR program and are ready to pursue more advanced training in Skills, Ice Dance, Artistic, Synchro and Freeskate disciplines.
​
Each session ranges from 1-2hours and include a 15 minute club provided lesson (dependent on level). Skaters work through STAR 1 to Gold and beyond, developing strong technical foundations while exploring performance, choreography, and goal setting.
​
Coaching is delivered through a combination of group instruction and one-on-one lessons (arranged directly with your coach), with time built in for independent practice. Skaters have opportunities to participate in assessments, performance days, and competitions as they progress.
​
STARSkate encourages discipline, creativity, and personal growth - whether your skater is pursuing recreational goals or dreaming of higher-level competition.
​
Figure skates are required; helmets are not required. Coaching must be arranged directly with a coach of your choosing.
