It is the announcement I am sure you have all been eagerly waiting for- our ice for our Fall 2022 season is ready for sign up!
Some of you may be thinking: “It snowed this week in Cleveland, we still have to get to Spring, and then Summer, and Fall after that sure seems a long way off.” However, a few things to keep in mind:
1. Our ice attendance has steadily increased over the past year, and we now have many sessions a week that are running at or close to capacity. Good to be early to reserve your spot.
2. There are great discounts for signing up early (described below) with ice as low as $11 per hour. And with our make up credits, even if your schedule changes, you can swap your ice as you need so you still have some flexibility for schedule changes. Good to get a big discount but still have flexibility.
3. Back to school chores is just like summer reading- in the Spring, there always seems to be plenty of time to get it done, but invariably the first day back sneaks up on all of us and while we are running around trying to buy new sneakers and loose leaf paper, while reading the summer reading in the car, we always promise to be more proactive next year. Good to sign up for your ice early to get one thing off your “Back to School” list before school is even over.
Details:
THE ICE- nearly identical to our Spring season running from 8/22 to 12/16

All on-ice sessions are available in 30 minute increments. Some ice sessions are restricted by level but any skater can skate on any ice session provided that they are in a one-on-one private lesson with a club coach for the entire 30 minutes. There are some days / times where we do not have our ice due to other programming at Thornton. See Ice+ for details.
All packages are for the same day and time every week.
We are excited to offer a new off-ice clinic- Pilates with Amber Kruse on Monday evening. The clinic is designed to be a full body workout building both upper and lower body strength and endurance. It will also help to improve a skater’s balance and core stability. Amber is certified through the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a personal trainer and is also a certified Pilates Instructor. Participating skaters will need to bring a yoga mat and water, and wear tennis shoes.
