Coaching Staff

SkateSaskatoon has five full-time professional coaches and one alternate professional coach who work full time with the club. These coaches are available to give private lessons to skaters enrolled in the StarSkate or Competitive Programs as well as the Advanced CanSkate and CanSkate programs.

Any skater is welcome to choose any of these coaches for lessons and indicate on your registration form the number of lessons per week you wish to take. It is strongly recommended that you contact the professional coach in advance for guidance as to the type and number of lessons as well as the skating schedule. Lessons run approximately 15 minutes, with rates as shown.

Please remember, the coaches charge for all lessons booked unless alternate plans are made. Lessons will be given on group or option times in which the skater is registered. Small group lessons may be arranged with you coach.

SFSC Club coaches can be contacted directly for lessons. The Club also has one alternate coach. Referrals to the alternate coach must be made through one of the SFSC Club coaches.
