Northwest Ice Rink offers Group Ice Skating Lessons for individuals, families and   groups. Whether you have a school group, church group, boy or girl scout troop, or any other organization, we can accommodate you. We also have separate classes for adults only and separate classes for parent/tot and home schoolers. Group lessons are fun, and encourage participation. Our experienced instructors are skilled in working with individuals and with groups, so everyone is sure to learn a lot!  Skaters in each 4, 5 or 6 week series of lessons receive free rental skates for the lessons and they also receive 4, 5 or 6 free passes to Public Sessions for practice.

  Performing Teams

 

    For many years Northwest has been acclaimed for its Performing Teams.

 As soon as skaters see the teams perform in our annual spring show they know that someday they want to be on our Senior Team.  In fact, our Senior Teams have been so good that they won 1st place in the 2003 & 2005 ISI World Championships.  Those students are now in college but we have new groups of Synchronized & Production Teams working their way up the skating ladder.

 

   This year the entry level team - Synchronized Workshop,  will meet on Mondays 5:30 - 6:00 PM, right after the 4:30 - 5:30 PM Group Lessons.  Tryouts begin Monday, September 17th, 5:30 - 6:00 PM.

 

   Jr. Synchronized & Production Teams will meet Thursdays 4:30 - 5:30 PM.

   Jr. Production Team will meet Thursdays 5:45 - 6:45 PM.

   Tryouts for Jr. Teams begin Thursday, September 20th, 4:30 - 6:45 PM.

 

   Sr. Synchronized & Production Teams will meet Mondays 5:30 - 6:45 PM.

   Tryouts begin Monday, September 17th 5:30 - 6:45 PM.

 

   Skaters joining any of these teams are expected to make an annual commitment to the team to attend practices and to participate in competitions and exhibitions.  Fun and Friendships develop while skaters are learning some very important life skills.
