Our Coaches

The Acton Skating Club contracts In-Training, Trained and Certified coaches who are all Skate Canada Registered Coaches in Good Standing. Our Coaches promote athlete development on CanSkate, StarSkate and PowerSkate sessions by focusing on quality coaching, training and development using Group lessons, supervised practice, individual time (STARSkate Only) Circuits, stations and rotations at all levels. The Coaches work together as a Team for the Club and Skaters. Coaches will update the Families when a Session Change or Individual coaching is required for their skater.
