Advance Learn To Skate
  • Youth


Advance Learn To Skate

Advance LTS program is a program designed to help introduce, convey and inspire kids to the art and sport of Figure Skating.  But how do we move on and actually get to know Figure Skating as a competitive sport? That is where we would like to introduce our advanced program. Our professional team of coaches, including the head of the program, Olympic coach Slava Rozanski,
validates the program with 20 years of experience in advancing athletes to the national level. As a result, the progress leading towards jumps and spins becomes a real possibility for those students who outshine and move on as a candidate for the advanced program, through LTS. Proven as a successful program in the past, we strongly believe we can do it again!

Each group will have 6-8 students that will consist of:
•    30 minutes off ice
•    Basic Warm up
•    Stretching/Balance
•    Basic Core Development

Followed by 50 minutes on ice:
•    25 minutes Developing Basic Skating Skills
•    25 minutes of Jumps and Spins

Acceptence to the program upon evaluation.

Classes held on weekdays after school hours.

For the dates, times and more info call 718-758-7514.
