YOUR FIRST CLASS:
Make sure that your skater is dressed warmly. Don’t forget to bring gloves or mittens. All protective gear (i.e. helmets, knee pads, etc.) is optional . Please arrive early. Lane assignments will be posted at the entrances to the ice and at the Box Office. These charts will let you know where you need to go and also who your instructor will be. Skates should be snugly fit and be tied tightly. If you have any questions about fitting skates, please feel free to ask for assistance. Beginner classes will meet off the ice first on the first day of class.
PRACTICE SESSIONS:
A free public session is included on the day of your class. Skating school students are required to check in at the Box Office to receive a wristband prior to getting on the ice. The public session is held before class on Wednesdays and Fridays, and after class on Saturdays. Skaters can utilize these sessions to practice their skills from class, take private lessons, or skate with friends and family. Anyone not enrolled in skating school is welcome to skate on public sessions for $20 admission plus $5 skate rental fee.
MAKE-UP CLASSES:
If you miss a class, you can email to schedule a make-up class. All make ups expire within 30 days of the missed class.
Skaters can only take a make-up class in another class of the same level. Make up classes are non-transferable from skater to skater.
To qualify for a make-up class, you must email our Skating School Administrator, Emma, at emma@avicepalace.com and get your make up class APPROVED before coming to your make up class.
All make up classes must be scheduled 48 hours in advance. Make up classes can only be used while currently enrolled in LFIP Skating School and missed make up classes cannot be rescheduled. Cancellation of your enrollment will lead to forfeiture of unused make up classes.
SKATING SCHOOL CANCELLATION POLICY:
We understand that cancellation is sometimes necessary. If you would like to change your class enrollment day or discuss other arrangements please contact Emma, emma@avicepalace.com.
A cancellation form can be filled out online under the "Skating School" tab. Please submit a cancellation form within 30 days before the skater’s last lesson. Cancellation of your enrollment will lead to forfeiture of unused make up classes.
