Coaching
is critical to advancement in figure skating. Group
and/or private coaching are available to all skaters at the
Ft. Myers Skatium. Coaches are affiliated with the
Club, but operate as independent contractors, therefore all
contact should be made directly with the individual coaches.
A list of authorized coaches is provided below. If you
are interested in participating in shows or competitions you
will want to consult with a private coach. Questions
regarding proper skates, music, program elements,
competition rules and regulations, and skating technique can
all be answered by your coach.
Coaches' fees are determined by the
individual coach and payment is made directly to the coach.
Private lessons can be conducted on either a public session
or freestyle session, but the ice fee is separate from the
coaching fee. Ice fees are paid directly to the
skating facility. Multiple session packets can be
purchased at a reduced fee. This information is
available at the front desk or at the Ft. Myers Skatium
website: fmskatium.com.
Coaches reserve your lesson time, therefore
if you are unable to make your lesson time you must contact
your coach in advance. If inadequate notice is given
your coach may charge fore the missed time. This
policy varies among coaches and you should discuss your
coach's policy with them. Charging for missed lessons
is standard business procedure stipulated by the
Professional Skaters Association.
