Figure Skating Classes
Welcome to the figure skating division for FMC Ice Sports. Our figure skating progression begins with Learn to Skate and then continues in the FMC Skating Club Group class. From there, we introduce specialized figure skating classes. Available in select locations, these programs supplement a skater's learning in a variety of ways and are intended to be taken in addition to a class or private instruction. As skaters continue through the progression, figure skating classes focus on specific aspects of skating to help skaters to develop them.
