Richmond Arenas Skate Lessons (6-16 years, 17+ years)
Programs are designed in conjunction with the Premier Sports Award Program and aim to provide a fun and safe introduction to ice skating. Evaluations are done at the individual level with movement to the next step when all skills are completed.

The completion of each level helps build confidence while introducing the skills of recreational skating.

Helmets are required to be worn with long pants and gloves recommended. See Helmet Policy and Requirements below.
