Take your skating to the next level!

WIA Skating Academy

Build on what you’ve learned in the Basic Skills program and make the transition to figure skating. Our coaches focus on skill mastery, teaching you progressive skating skills, spins, jumps and artistry on ice. This program is for graduates of Pre-Free Skate.

Each class consists of 50 minutes of instruction followed by a 30-minute freestyle session to practice what you’ve learned. Classes are held on Sundays.

Junior Academy

An introduction to figure skating for Basic 5-6 students. Classes are 50 minutes of instruction, followed by a 30-minute freestyle session to practice what you’ve learned. Classes are held on Sundays.
