Introduction To Synchronized Skating
This class is for skaters involved in the Basic Skills Program who would like try Synchronized Skating. The discipline of synchronized skating is where 8–20 (the number of skaters on a team depends on the level) skaters skate on ice as a team, moving as one flowing unit. This would be the first step towards possibly joining our in-house synchro team the Fox Valley Ice Stars.
