The Ancaster Skating Club (ASC) is proud to be a sanctioned member of Skate Canada! During the Fall, Winter and Spring seasons (September – May), we operate out of Morgan Firestone Arena in Ancaster, Ontario, and typically offer CanSkate (including PreCanSkate, Advanced CanSkate, Parent & Tots, and Teen/Young Adults), as well as PowerSkate and StarSkate. For the past few years, we have also offered StarSkate, Advanced CanSkate and Teen/Adult programs during Late Spring (May-June) and Summer (July-August) at the Liuna 4 Ice Centre (formerly Mohawk 4 Ice Centre) in Hamilton.
CanSkate is Skate Canada’s flagship learn to skate program for all ages, which focuses on the fundamental skating skills necessary for success in ALL ice sports – hockey, figure skating, ringette, speed skating, synchronized skating and recreational skating. The CanSkate program uses a nationally-tested and proven curriculum to support skater success in developing stronger skating skills in a fun and friendly environment.
BE THE BEST BY LEARNING FROM THE BEST! All our programs are taught by professional coaches who are trained, certified and recertified through Skate Canada and the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) to teach proper mechanics and skating technique. For added skater safety and to maximize learning, we also maintain a skater to coach ratio of 8 to 1 or less on our learn-to-skate sessions.
We look forward to seeing you on the ice!
