Learn To Speedskate
Join us for individual lessons or our monthly group Intro to Speedskating sessions at our North Buffalo Rink. We provide the instruction and skates, you provide the desire to learn and have fun.
Short Track Speed Skating is one of the Winter Olympics' most popular sports. Our programs allow anyone to learn in a fun, safe, and supportive environment. This is a unique chance for skaters of all ages and abilities to take to the ice and try for themselves a sport they have only seen on TV.
