"This program is designed to be a “bridge” between Learn to Skate classes and Private Lessons. Skaters will receive a 30 minute on-ice semi-private lesson in which they will rotate between two instructors. The curriculum includes components such as stroking and edges, power skating, introductory moves-inthe- field, spins, jumps and introductory dance. The class is open to Basic 6 through Preliminary Freestyle levels. Based on the number of students who sign up for the classes, the skaters will be broken up into similar levels. The maximum ratio for students to instructor is 5:1. During the year, a parent’s seminar will be held during class time where parents can learn and ask questions about topics such as figure skating testing structure, transitioning into private lessons and selecting a coach" (Gale Force Sports & Entertainment, 2).
