Academy Training (Regular Season)
STAR 1-4 Academy Training
This is a developmental program to enhance skating quality for the STAR 1-4 Series competitions. These sessions are offered every Sunday to the STAR 1-4 skaters as an addition to their regular skating days. Skaters must be registered for a minimum of 2 days (not including the STAR1-4 Academy session) and must be actively competing in Freeskate at these levels to be eligible. This is a coach-led group session taught by various coaches on staff (and sometimes guest coaches). We will also provide performance sessions with feedback from evaluators so that the skaters learn how to compete/skate on clear ice.
The training will include these key components weekly to intensify your skater’s progress and prepare them for the next level:
Jump Development
Spinning to Success
Footwork and Turns
Field Moves and Fun Stuff
Interpretation
Choreography
Performance Ice
Transitions and Linking Steps
Conditioning
Competition Must Knows
plus much more…
Please discuss with your coach to see if this program is right for your skater!
