The Nepean Skating Club was founded in 1965 and first operated out of the Merivale and Bell Arenas. We are a Skate Canada sanctioned club and operate as part of the Eastern Ontario Section (EOS) of Skate Ontario. We offer skating lessons for all ages and skills, whether you want to learn to skate, improve your hockey or ringette skating skills or take figure skating lessons. We offer the following
programs: PreCanSkate (3 years old and up), CanSkate (4 years old and up), CanPowerSkate (hockey and ringette skating skills), STARSkate and Competitive Skate (figure skating, ice dance). We also have a number of synchronized skating teams under SYNCHROSkate. For the serious Competitive Figure Skater we offer a program called Learn to Compete Plus. Our figure skating programs run out of the Nepean Sportsplex, while we offer our other programs at various locations in Nepean at the Sportsplex, Merivale Arena, Bell Arena, and Walter Baker Centre and Mintro Recreation Centre in Barrhaven. Our professional coaches are all NCCP certified. Registration is available through our website at www.nepeanskatingclub.com
Want to know more about CanSkate? It's Canada's only nationally recognized learn-to-skate program designed by skating professionals at Skate Canada. It's fun and encourages skaters to always be moving with music, circuits and games. The program teaches participants the fundamental skating skills that are the basis for all ice sports including hockey, ringette, speed skating and figure skating.
