Figure Skating Sessions

Freestyle sessions are offered daily and designed for figure skaters of all ages and abilities working on individual skills, advanced skating skills, choreography, jump and spin technique, etc. All skaters who are Basic 6 and under OR are working on hockey skills must be with a coach. Monthly Freestyle Registration will take place on the 25th of each month at 12:00 a.m. (CT).

Registration Options
  • Individual session registration ($7/30 minutes)
  • Freestyle Unlimited Membership ($250 for access to all freestyles within a calendar month)
Freestyle Rules & Etiquette
  • ALL skaters must check in with front desk upon arrival. Please make sure skaters are signing in when they get on the ice, not when they get off.

  • Skaters should only be on the ice during their allotted times. If a skater is on a session they did not pay for, front desk will charge them for that freestyle time.

  • If there are three or more skaters on the ice, skaters who are performing a program to music must wear one of the yellow or pink vests. No exceptions. This goes for all programs that require music: free skates, showcase, ice dance, etc. Only three skaters may skate to music at a time and all three must be in vests. More than three skaters performing at once is dangerous and not allowed.

  • If you or a skater plays music when no one is running programs, please make sure it is appropriate for all ages. Please leave your phone near the blue tooth area so any coach/skater can shut it off if they need to run a program.

  • On busier sessions, staff will create a music list to help get skaters through their programs more efficiently. There will be a “skater” side and a “coach” side on the list. Coaches are able to bump the skater side and cut in line, meaning the order in which programs run would be the following: 1) coach, 2) coach, 3) skater, 4) coach, 5) coach, 6) skater, and so on.

  • Please be prepared to disconnect your phone right after you/your skater finishes a program so they next skater can connect and go. Skaters who are up next should be getting a vest on and be prepared to go when it is their turn. Skaters might be skipped if they are not prepared for their turn, meaning they will go after whoever was behind them in line.

  • We ask that skaters don’t run their program more than twice per session unless they are in a lesson with a coach.

  • Right of way is as follows:

    • Skaters running a program with music

    • Skaters in a lesson

    • Hockey skaters in a lesson

    • All other skaters on the ice

  • Freestyle ice is for private lessons and practice time for figure skaters.

  • Hockey students must be with a coach at all times and may not wear helmets with cages. No sticks or pucks allowed.

  • You may have up to three skaters in one lesson if necessary, but no more. 

  • Only academy classes are allowed to function on freestyle ice. No outside entity may run group classes on freestyles, no exceptions.

  • Skaters who are Basic 6 and below should not be on the ice without a coach, unless they have coach permission after showing understanding of ice etiquette and how to keep themselves safe on freestyle sessions.

  • Be respectful of all skaters and coaches on the ice.
