Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need ice dance experience?
No, you don’t need previous ice dance experience. You should, however, be comfortable with basic skating skills such as forward and backward edges, runs, cross rolls and three-turns.
Our camps focus on the edges, turns and steps that form the foundation of ice dance, while also helping you develop your footwork, speed, edge quality, transitions, timing and control.
I don’t have a dance partner, is that ok?
That’s absolutely fine!
Most of our skaters come without a partner, and all our camp sessions are designed to work for solo skaters.
Come on your own. Leave with new friends.
