Aspire

Aspire offers skaters an affordable, comprehensive package program in a safe and supportive group training environment. Skaters will learn proper skill development and training techniques while sampling different skating opportunities and fine-tuning their fundamental skating skills.

About Aspire

Programming differs depending on location, but all should be designed to introduce beginning skaters to a training program and welcome new figure skaters to the sport.

The three main components that are included in Aspire programming are:

1.  Off-ice training

2.  On-ice classes

3.  Specialized skater and parent resources

Check with your local rink, Learn to Skate USA program or figure skating club to find the Aspire Program in your area.
