PreCanSkate

PreCanSkateis a nationally standardized Learn-to-Skate program founded by Skate Canada for skaters aged 3-5. It is considered an elective prerequisite to CanSkate, building foundational skating skills using CanSkate curriculum geared toward younger children.

PreCan is meant for brand new skaters, or skaters who have not already received their PreCanSkate ribbon. All coaches are trained through the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) and are assisted by volunteer Program Assistants.

The maximum ratio of coaches to skaters is 1:10. For more information, please refer to the CanSkate Handbook.
