Children and adults on ice

In our 4 and 5 day ice skating course at Riverside Leisure Centre, children will have fun learning to glide around the ice while improving their balance, agility and co-ordination!  

These 30 minute sessions are for complete beginners. Children will learn elements from Grades 1 to 3 of the Skate UK programme, including how to glide, how to turn and how to stop.

These courses are suitable for children aged from 5 to 17 years old.
