THE CURRICULUM

Skating is an individual lifetime sport, which develops coordination better than any sport and improves poise, grace, rhythm and good posture.  Each individual skater’s progress depends on how much time and effort he or she desires to spend.  The Sport-O-Rama Skating Program offers each skater an opportunity to accomplish his or her skating objectives. 

The Sport-O-Rama Skating School will be utilizing the Ice Skating Institutes Recreational skating program for all of our group classes. The ISI program is a Nationally accepted instructional program  with a logical progression of skill development designed to increase interest and participation in ice skating.
