Junior / Intermediate / Senior

The Skate Canada STARSkate Program offers skaters an opportunity to take optional assessments in free skating, ice dancing, skating skills, artistic skating and synchronized skating. These tests challenge a skater to learn and develop more advanced figure skating skills. STARSkaters work independently and with group and/or private coaches to attain certificates from STAR 1 to Gold levels. 

The Skate Canada Podium Pathway Program provides opportunities for skaters to compete in a variety of competitions from the regional level to the national and international level. Skaters compete in singles, pairs, dance and synchronized skating events at a variety of levels. 

**Once skaters move to the Junior session, it is up to the skater/parent to select their own private coach/coaching team. Please refer to our coach page for contacts and here for the coach selection process.**
