3. Blades should be sharp to the touch, if in doubt ask the skate hire staff.
4. Clothing should be warm, preferably layers. Gloves are a good idea but no hats or scarves please.
Your lesson
1. We take 1-15 skaters to 1 coach depending on government guidelines. If classes exceed this which is not often, we add an assistant to compensate.
2. 5 minutes before your class starts please wait off the ice at the designated entry point. Week day courses use a third of the ice, Saturday and adults use the whole ice.
3. If the skater is reluctant to go on the ice please do not force them on, let them watch a while. They may want to join in a little later.
4. Some teaching at beginner level may take place off ice in skates, preparing skaters before going onto the ice rink
5. Any accompanying parents/guardians are able to wait in the Ice CafÚ area, or seating stands. Please do not stand at the barrier during the lesson. If you have any questions or queries during the lesson please do speak with our reception team.
