Hosted by the ISCC Skating Club.

Join us weekly in the ISCC Fitness Center before Club Ice sessions for a special Ballet for Figure Skaters class led by ISCC's Meghan McDermott.

This class focuses on flexibility, balance, and core strength-key elements in figure skating. Ballet improves body alignment, enhances grace, and boosts overall strength, helping you glide with more precision and power on the ice. Perfect for all levels, this class will support your skating goals while offering a fun, off-ice training experience.

This class will run weekly.
