LESSONS AND PROGRAMS

ICE SKATING PROGRAMS

We offer a variety of programs for skaters who are interested in figure skating, hockey, or both! No matter which pathway interests you, a skater’s journey begins with the Learn to Skate program. Classes are grouped based on age and ability level (we even have teen/adult classes for beginners).

After a student graduates from Learn to Skate, those interested in the figure skating pathway will begin our Aspire program, a bridge program designed to help skaters progress into becoming full members of U.S. Figure Skating! We are currently the only U.S. Figure Skating program in the area and the home skating rink for the Knoxville Figure Skating Club (KFSC). Those interested in the hockey pathway can check our large variety of hockey programs.

We can’t wait to watch you begin your skating career. For further information or for assistance with deciding the best skating path for you, contact Lucie Krausova, at [email protected].

ASPIRE

Aspire is specifically for those skaters who are in Pre-Free Skate to Free Skate levels 1-6! It’s also open to Adult Skaters!

The Aspire program teaches athletes the skills they need to make the most out of their figure skating journey.

Skaters in Pre-Free Skate through FS 6 practice two days per week for the duration of the 8-week session.

ADVANCED

After Aspire, Cool Sports figure skaters bridge into the U.S. Figure Skating testing structure. Skaters at this level often take private lessons with a dedicated coach and practice during freestyle sessions.

Guest skaters and coaches are welcomed to skate at Cool Sports. Skaters will need to have a copy of their USFS, ISI or USA Hockey membership card, which can be kept on file.

COMPETITIONS

ALL skaters at Cool Sports can compete, whether you are a beginner or advanced! Skaters may choose to compete in a solo program to music, with a friend in a duet, or even in a small group. If you are interested in competing, a coach can help you guide you along the way, from creating a program to registering to compete.

Once you decide to compete, there are many options and locations available to you. We briefly go over some of the more popular series pathways for Cool Sports skaters below, and you can read more in-depth about these pathways at USFS Online.
