Learn-To-Skate Ice Show rehearsals begin this weekend!

ss13

This is just a reminder that rehearsals for the Learn-To-Skate routine for the 2017 Ice Show begin THIS SATURDAY March 25!

You can find everything you need to know about the show on our website HERE.

*You might notice that there is only one Learn-To-Skate routine for this year’s show, instead of 2-3 as in years past. Due to budget cuts, the city made the decision to close the rink on Sundays and as a result, our rehearsal time for the show was significantly reduced. For this reason, we also had to reduce the number of ice show group routines that we had planned. That said, just because all of our skaters are in the same routine, they will not all be learning the same elements/choreography – so there’s no need to worry if your skater is just starting out, or if they have been skating for years, they will receive level-appropriate skills and choreography for this routine!

We look forward to seeing all of you on Saturday!

Don’t let the Ice Show deadline ‘spiral’ away!

Don’t forget! The deadline for Brooklyn Figure Skating Club members to register for the 2017 Ice Show ‘Rise Up’ is Saturday March 4! (That’s in 4 days!)

If you are a member of the Brooklyn Blades on Ice Learn-To-Skate Program, you have until Saturday March 18 to register!

Show assignments/costuming info will be released later this week, so check your email for updates coming soon!

Spring LTS starts tomorrow!
