Hi, another beginner skater here. Started back in May so I could skate with my boys after my 8 year old went to a skating party & fell in love with it. We've been working our way through the Skate Excellence program, although I stopped my lessons in October & my 5 year old has decided he's not really that keen anymore. My 8 year old has been on Hockey excellence for the last 6 weeks & has been asked to join the under 9s team, so exciting times ahead.
