Pre-Learn to Skate — Session 2

PRE-LEARN TO SKATE — FALL 2026, SESSION 2

Ages 2–5

Give your child a fun and positive introduction to skating!

Our Pre-Learn to Skate program is designed specifically for young children with little to no skating experience. Skaters will be introduced to important fundamentals, including standing, walking on the ice, balance and gliding.

Games, music, toys and creative teaching aids are incorporated into every class to keep children engaged, comfortable and excited to come back each week.

Led by Head Instructor Thalia Stybak, the Cutting Edge Learn to Skate program provides a patient, friendly and encouraging environment where every child can learn at their own pace. The program is based on the nationally recognized CanSkate curriculum, which helps children develop strong fundamental skating skills through a progressive learning system.

Whether your child is stepping onto the ice for the first time or already has some skating experience, this program will help improve their balance, edge control, agility and confidence. It also provides an excellent foundation for children who may eventually want to transition into hockey or figure skating.

Cutting Edge is proud to offer one of the best-value Learn to Skate programs in Halton.
