Fall 2026 Registration & Pricing Overview for Families
Hamilton Skating Club is a non-profit organization that offers high-quality skating programs for skaters of all levels. As our membership and club needs grow and evolve, this skating season we’re continuing to grow our commitment to flexibility, transparency. Our fee model breaks out the costs of club-coached vs private-coached sessions and is pro-rated for weeks with holiday Mondays.
This year, we are bringing back our very successful Team Thursdays - continuing to provide added value to families who skate more. We are also continuing to offer volume discounting for families with multiple skaters.
New This Season!
Group Star is Now Introduction to Figure Skating!
- Intro to Figure Skating is intended to serve as a bridge between learn to skate and figure skating.
- This program is open to skaters enrolled in Canskate stage 3 or higher, and skaters must wear figure skates
- This program introduces skaters to the fundamentals of figure skating in a skill-based environment, with a strong emphasis on long-term technical development.
