Learn to Skate

WELCOME TO THE VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS SKATING ACADEMY'S LEARN TO SKATE PROGRAM!

 

Our classes are designed for skaters age 3+.  We use the Learn to Skate USA program that serves recreational and competitive skaters in both figure skating and hockey.

-Classes are 30 minutes in length and taught in a group format led by a certified professional instructor.

-Classes stay active through the use of teaching aids and a wide variety of activities that create a fun environment to promote learning.

See below for information about session dates, class days and times.

Skaters who have been in the program at City National Arena or Hylo Park Arena and/or have taken a session or two off from classes are still considered "returning skaters".
