Ask us about learning to Ice Skate
Can’t wait to Ice Skate?
Do you live in London? Bored of the gym? Want a new activity? You are in the right place! You’ll love learning to Ice Skate with us!
With decades of experience and a knack for explaining the finer details of learning to Ice Skate, we have enjoyed watching our students progress from beginners through to confident and skilled skaters time and time again.
Learn to Ice Skate and feel the health benefits
There are many perks for our bodies when we Ice Skate. Improved muscle tone, posture and burning calories. You can read all about them here.
Does age matter?
The short answer is no. Olympic competitive Ice Skaters often (though not always) start very young. Around 3 to 5 years old. We may not all be destined to be the next Torvill and Dean or Wayne Gretzky, but that doesn’t stop us from developing Ice Skating skills that work well and feel great, starting at any age. The satisfaction of gaining a new skill is something that most people haven’t felt since they were kids. So every day we skate there’s the opportunity to give your mood a boost (and your ego) by mastering a glide or a turn.
Where do you teach Ice Skating?
We have instructors at 2 London locations, Alexandra Palace Ice Rink and Streatham Ice and Leisure Centre. Both Ice Rinks are indoor competition sized ice surfaces. There are public transport links nearby both rinks.
If you’ve always wanted to learn to Ice Skate, then we’d be so happy to help!

Exceeding expectations
★★★★★
“
I've been having lessons with Marika and Vitaliy for a year now and have enjoyed every moment of their tuition. Their passion and patience with this sport by far exceeds my expectations. Marika and Vitaliy have really reinforced my passion for figure skating and helped me with very difficult goals. I really appreciate their vast knowledge and fine details with every single part in ice skating.”

Excellent Coaching
★★★★★
“
4 years ago, Marika ran a synchronised skating session and I enjoyed the challenge and variety involved so much that I took on individual lessons. As an adult skater, I appreciate her ability to explain moves in different ways and her endless vat of patience (especially with my inability to understand left and right). Vitaliy teaches me Ice Dance and skates everything with me, pushing me to be faster and neater with steps. Both regularly ask about my goals and tailor my lessons around what I want to achieve but also draw upon their own expertise and make suggestions. Thanks to them, I’ve progressed from a beginner to skating at a senior level. Importantly: – They focus on basics and ensure that my technique is correct to avoid falls and injuries. – They coach all levels and have a good knowledge of the NISA test system. I look forward to every lesson for both the theory and practical aspects and would recommend Marika and Vitaliy to anyone looking to improve their skating.”

Quality assured
★★★★★
“
I had one-to-one lessons with Marika and thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them. Marika carries a lot of pride in her work. A caring coach, with a strong attention to detail and technique. Rather than a one size fits all approach, lessons are tailored to skater’s individual’s needs providing a very high-quality coaching. I felt a warm welcome at Lee Valley Ice Centre and have no reservations is recommending the IceSkating.London company.”

The level of detail and quality on their teaching is something else, their understanding of what is that you are doing wrong and how to put it right is very insightful.
