What we offer, an overall view!

For information on our individual programs, please visit the "programs" page.

The Preston Figure Skating Club has a unique structure that has been part of the organization since the start, "The Team Approach". Skaters and coaches work together to achieve the common goal. We use the strength of the team approach to support each other at competitions and on daily sessions. Our club offers all disciplines - freeskate, dance and pairs. We have programs designed for all levels, including competitive, test, and learn to skate. Our club refers to the competitive stream as Sectional Group Program and the test stream as Regional Group Program.

Our Sectional Group Skaters practice on a daily basis (Monday - Friday) from 6:30am - 8:30am and in the afternoon from 2:30pm - 6:00pm. This program includes on ice sessions, plus an hour of fitness class each day. We also offer evening and weekened sessions for out of town skaters. These sessions are held at the Hespeler Arena, located just north of the 401. The direction of the off ice fitness classes is designed and conducted by Mrs. Josie Jamieson. Mrs Josie Jamieson, being a Junior World Figure Skating Champion, understands what is needed for an athlete to be ready to compete.

Our Sectional Group offers two different disciplines; single and pairs. The single competitors have approximately four general sessions to choose from each day. The pairs have separate training sessions, but also has pair on regular general sessions. Mr Kevin Wheeler, the director of the Pairs Program works with the skaters a minimum of two times a week in an off ice lift class. These classes are used to increase the skater's strength as well as create new and exciting lifts!!

Our Regional Group skaters have the option to skate up to six days a week. These sessions are available in the morning as well as in the evening from 4:00pm - 8:00pm and on Saturdays from 4:30pm - 8:00pm. These skaters train at the Preston Auditorium and the Karl Homuth Arena.
