Figure Skating Spring School

Keep your skills sharp and stay ice-ready after the winter season!

Our Spring School is a flexible, drop-in style program designed for skaters who want to maintain their technique, power, and flow through the spring months.

• Format: Flexible drop-in / "Pick-a-Session" registration.
• Prerequisite: Open to current CCA Figure Skating Club registrants who have completed a Level 6 badge or higher.

⛸️ Spring 2027 Details Coming Soon! Check back soon for our full 2027 session schedule, dates, and fee information!

📋 Program Overview & Format

Each 60-minute session is structured as a high-tempo, flexible workshop split into two focused halves to balance technical growth with individual progression:

• First 30 Minutes — Technical Power & Flow: High-energy stroking and field movements designed to deepen edge work, stability, and endurance.
• Final 30 Minutes — Open Free Skate: Skaters work at their own pace on personal goals while our coaches roam the ice to provide on-the-spot technical feedback and individual assistance.

🎖️ Skater Assessments

Because Spring School follows a flexible drop-in format, formal assessment cards are not issued. However, coaches actively monitor progress during sessions and will award badges to skaters who successfully clear all requirements for a new level!

🗓️ Schedule & Registration

Our flexible "Pick-a-Session" model allows families to choose exactly what fits their schedule—register for a single session or as many as you'd like!
