Session Criteria
Kitsilano FSC has only a limited amount of ice and needs to serve skaters with a wide variety of skills. In order to maximize the enjoyment of the ice for skaters at different skill levels we have divided our ice sessions into classifications. You may only skate on ice for which your classification fits. These classifications are:
Has Pre-preliminary Program (has all single jumps, including Lutz) Preparing for Preliminary Freeskate Test.
Intermediate
Preliminary Freeskate Test Passed or above
Senior
Full Senior Bronze Freeskate Test Passed or above Juvenile Competitive or above
Adults without tests are allowed on Elementary, Junior or Adult ice only and may skate unsupervised. Must be able to follow the Skater's Code of Conduct. Adults with recent test levels may skate in the appropriate category.
Skaters who do not (yet) hold a CanSkate Level 6 Report card are called 'Beginners'. Due to the large number of different classes of users, and limited ice, there are no sessions for Beginners wishing private learn-to-skate lessons. If you would like more time on the ice, please consider enrolling in all 3 weekly CanSkate sessions.
