Finished your first three Learn to Skate badges? Great! You can keep on going in Learn to Skate for as long as you want, with many more skills to learn.  But, if you see that figure skating is your passion (or want to see if it is), consider our Aspire class that immediately follows our Thursday evening Learn to Skate class.   

Aspire is a smaller class, focused solely on figure skating skills, designed to act as a bridge program between learn to skate and figure skating.  The classes are designed to introduce multiple elements across a variety of levels, aiming to equip the skater with the skills necessary to excel in private lessons.   Aspire members will be able to be part of a group performance in our holiday and spring shows. More information is available here: https://www.hersheyfigureskating.org/freeskate
 

*HFSC Classes will take a spring break (mid-April through June) and return in July!
