This standardized progressive curriculum is designed to help skaters of all ages and abilities master the fundamentals of ice skating, while having fun in a safe, supportive, and encouraging environment that values hard work and dedication. GPFSC’s program ensures that EVERYONE from preschoolers to adults, beginners to competitors, and skaters with disabilities can learn how to skate. Whether skaters want to achieve Olympic fame or simply enjoy the recreational benefits of skating, THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE IS ALL BEGINS! GPFSC offers group classes and private coaching for both figure and hockey skaters as well as practice ice for their members. Each session generally runs 6-8 weeks. All coaches are LTSUSA certified instructors who have successfully completed background checks and National SafeSport certification. The Club’s endorsement by USA Hockey paved the way for their partnership with the Pensacola Junior Ice Flyers (PJIF). GPFSC runs LTSUSA programming for aspiring hockey skaters looking to learn the fundamentals of skating first to then move into the Pensacola Junior Ice Flyers, Learn to Play program! Many skaters who are already in PJIF’s Learn to Play program take full advantage of our ice time and sign up for Power Skating Skills class to get an extra edge up on other players!
