Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
How old do I have to be to take
classes?
There are no age restrictions. All
sessions are available for Tots thru Adults. Groups are formed
on the ice by age & level.
What is the makeup & refund
policy?
You may make up a class during the
8-week session on any other Learn to Skate lesson day. No refund
or credits will be given after the session begins.
What should I wear for my skating
lessons?
Socks should be worn under your
skates, and the skates should fit snugly in order to lend the
proper support. Lace the skates all the way to the top,
including hooks, and you’ll be ready to go. You should dress in
warm comfortable clothing, which will not restrict your
movements. Gloves or mittens are necessary and in a very cold
arena, a hat and coat may also be needed. Skate rental is
included but wearing your own skates is BEST! Good skates are
essential to improve. Visit the Pro Shop to be fitted for
skates.
When is my child ready for private
lessons and how much do they cost?
A child can participate in private
lessons at any time. Private lessons are made by appointment
with a staff coach. Lessons are done on Freestyle sessions and
occasionally during Public Skating. A skater, regardless or age
or ability, may want individual help, rather than learning in a
group situation. Whatever the reason, private lessons are the
best way to learn more details and more skating skills. Private
lessons are given in increments 15 to 60 minutes.
In private lessons, you are
responsible for 2 fees:
Ice time: payable
directly to Citrus Figure Skating Club. Lessons occur on
freestyle sessions, which are reserved only for private
instruction and for skaters practicing outside of lesson. Ice
fees for freestyle sessions are $14/one session. Discounted
punch card rates are available through the Citrus FSC. Contact
the Skating Director to help select a coach.
Instructor’s fee: payable directly to the instructor. The
average cost is $15/15 minute lesson. Length of lesson can vary
depending on your needs and/or skating level.
What are booster lessons?
Booster lessons are an excellent
supplement to Learn to Skate group classes. A skater may need
help with certain elements, or just want to progress at a faster
pace. This is a great way for your skater to experience the
benefits of one-on-one training for a reduced cost. Receive 20
minutes PRIVATE Lesson for $20 including ice time on Main Rink
during Freestyle session. Booster lessons are payable to the
Citrus Figure Skating Club.
What else you can expect?
All skaters are able to participate
in the annual Holiday show and in House Competition.
Keep your eyes on the front board for news
about shows, competitions and other events.
