Figure Skating Instructors | The Chiller Ice Rinks

Figure skating teaching professionals would be happy to assist you with private lessons. Please feel free to contact them directly, as they are the stewards of their private lesson schedules and lesson rates.

Skaters will need to pay the appropriate admission fees for ice time and skate rental at the front desk and pay the professional directly for their private lessons. Rates will vary by instructor.

Guest Coaching Policy

All guest coaches must be pre-approved by the Figure Skating Director prior to teaching on Chiller sessions. Guest coaches must submit: Proof of liability insurance, PSA Membership & USFS registration. Intended teaching schedule must be emailed to the director prior to the session. Guest coaches will pre-purchase ice time online and check in at the front desk before taking the ice. Chiller Ice Rinks reserves the right to deny teaching privileges at their discretion.
