Jr. Star Academy is used to focus on the final stages of CanSkate including stages 5 and 6. This program teaches skaters the building blocks and basis of the sport of figure skating in a fun group atmosphere. Skaters will have the opportunity to work on their own ice as well as along side our StarSkaters in their own group. This is a great way to transition into a more independent atmosphere.
