PRIVATE LESSONS There are two ways to arrange a private lesson: 1. You can give us the day and time that is best suited to you. We will arrange a private lesson for you or your child with a qualified coach. Please pick up a private lesson request form at the skate counter or e-mail the Skating Academy Office! 2. You are welcome to come and observe the coaches at work and approach them directly to arrange lesson day and time. All Coaches and Instructors are independent contractors who use the Kendall Ice Arena facilities to teach private lessons; therefore they set their own schedule and fees. All fees must be paid at the Skating Academy Office prior to the lesson. These fees are for instruction only and do not include the price of admission or skate rental.

"The Dream Starts Here"! The Kendall Ice Arena Skating Academy offers USFS Testing, competitions, Shows and Recitals for our Figure Skaters.  We are dedicated to helping  you reach your  goals!
