Private lessons are available to all skaters, regardless of age or skill level. Private lessons are an opportunity for one-on-one learning with a Skating Professional specific to a skater’s individual needs. Skaters of all ages and levels benefit from private lessons, which will help them learn and progress at an accelerated pace. Once a skater begins private lessons, they can choose to participate in skating competitions and advanced testing. All of these things will help foster a sense of dedication, accomplishment, good sportsmanship, and many other life lessons.
If you would like assistance in selecting an instructor based upon availability, goals, and skill level, please contact the Skating Lead, Shari Jude. She can be reached at 714-692-8776 ext. 4 or via email at sjude@therinks.com.
