CanSkate
CanSkate is Skate Canada's dynamic learn to skate program for all ages. This program is designed for young skaters 3+ years of age who are already able to stand up, skate forward, and skate backward comfortably on their own. It is a 45 minute on-ice program taught by ASFSC professional coaches and assistants in groups of 10 skaters or less. Skaters will learn and practice basic skating skills across three categories - Balance, Control, and Agility! CanSkaters move through 6 stages of these skill, acquiring ribbons and badges for their progress. Mastering these fundamental skills will allow skaters to move on to participate in any ice sport or to skate as a recreational activity.

- Skates - lace-up Hockey or Figure Skates are highly recommended
- CSA approved helmet mandatory (no bike or ski helmets allowed) - until Stage 5 skills are passed
