The Parent & Tot program is designed for skaters ages 2-4 who have never skated before and who are not ready to be independent on the ice. The goal of the Parent & Tot program is to allow skaters the opportunity to gain confidence with parental support. Both the Parents and the Tots must wear a CSA approved hockey helmet and skates. We recommend dressing in light layers and wearing water resistant type pants and mittens or gloves.
PLEASE NOTE: The Parent registering to be on the ice must be 18 years of age or older and a fairly proficient skater themselves. All parents must wear skates and a CSA approved hockey helmet to accompany their tot on the ice. They must also be registered with Skate Canada in order to participate on the ice. The use of "skating aid trainers" is prohibited.
These sessions are taught in a group lesson format both on and off the ice by NCCP Nationally Certified Professional Coaches.
