Not sure whether to start with Learn to Skate classes or private lessons?
Many families begin with group classes — but quickly realize that private coaching can dramatically accelerate progress and confidence on the ice.
Many of our skaters combine both and see faster progress with private coaching.

Skating Development Pipeline
Janet believes in developing young skaters the right way—starting with strong basics and growing step by step toward higher-level goals. Skaters begin with Learn to Skate USA, where they build balance, confidence, and foundational skills, then progress into structured programs like Excel and Compete USA competitions that introduce goal-setting and fun competitive experiences. As skaters advance, training becomes more focused on testing, performance, and competition pathways, including the Excel competitive track and ultimately the U.S. Figure Skating National Qualifying Series for those pursuing elite levels. At every stage, Janet emphasizes proper technique, confidence, and a positive experience that supports long-term success in the sport.
