StarSkate Program

StarSkate Intermediate I

Intermediate StarSkate

In the Halifax Skating Club, Intermediate Skaters are skaters who have passed a part of any Preliminary Free Skate test but have not yet passed any part of the Senior Bronze Free Skate. Lessons are either private or semi/private. The HSC head coach coordinates coaching assignments for HSC skaters. Intermediate skaters usually skate three or more sessions each week. Skaters may test their progress by taking Skate Canada tests at specially arranged test days throughout the year.

Session fees includes ice costs, and stroking lessons. Coaching fees and test fees are extra.

About StarSkate

The STARSkate program offers the opportunity for skaters of all ages to develop figure skating skills in four areas: Skating Skills, Ice Dance, Free Style, and Interpretive. Skaters develop their skills and abilities in each level progressively and sequentially and may test and be recognized for their skills through the Skate Canada nationally standardized testing system. Information about the testing levels is available on the StarSkate page of the Skate Canada website. StarSkaters may choose to compete in local inter-club competitions and provincial StarSkate competitions. The most successful competitors can advance to the national StarSkate competition.
