Private Skating Lessons

Choosing a coach

  • Observe the coaches at work.  Watch them teach and take note of the qualities and teaching techniques you like.  This is a good way to determine which coach will work best with you/your child.
  • Speak with each coach directly.  Learn thier views on teaching, training, and competing. Discuss possible goals with them and ask how they would help you accomplish them.
  • You may want to set up a lesson for your child with more than one coach to determine who is more compatible with your child.

Things to remember

  • Skaters of all ages and abilities can begin private lessons at any time.
  • The County Ice Center does not schedule private lessons. This is done directly with the coach.
  • All lessons are paid directly to the coach.
  • Ice time is paid for separatly from private lesson fees and is paid to the County Ice Center.
  • Private lessons require a 24 hours advance notice of cancellation, otherwise you will be charged for a lesson not attended.
  • Ask coaches about individual policies and prices.
