Learn to Skate Classes

Dear Learn to Skate Customers,

As we get closer to opening the rink, we are working hard to make sure we can offer all our new skaters an exceptional experience.

Inevitably, with the opening of such a large and exciting new facility, there can sometimes be unexpected delays. I’m sorry to let you know that the start of our Learn to Skate classes has been delayed by one week.

Our new class start dates are:

Thursday classes – October 1
Saturday classes – October 3

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding. Our team is working incredibly hard to get the rink open and make sure everything is ready for you.

Please keep checking www.deepsouthice.com for the latest updates.

We can’t wait to welcome you onto the ice — just hang in there with us a little longer!

Best regards,
Mark Poole
Skating Director
Deep South Ice & Sports Complex

Basic Skills Program

Beginners - ages 6-15 yrs

Learn to Skate Registration Open

Whether your child dreams of becoming a figure skater, playing hockey, or simply wants to feel confident skating with family and friends, Learn to Skate Basic 1–6 is the perfect place to start. Designed for skaters ages 6–15, the program teaches the fundamental skills that every skater needs, regardless of which direction they may choose to take in the future.

Beginning with Basic 1, skaters develop balance, forward movement, gliding and stopping before progressing through six levels that introduce backward skating, edges, crossovers, turns and greater speed and control. Our goal is simple: keep skaters moving, learning and having fun! As their skills develop, they’ll gain the confidence and strong skating foundation they need to continue into figure skating, hockey, advanced skating programs—or simply enjoy a lifetime of skating.
