I always go there it’s a great place to learn , and the staff are so fun , and I live skating and playing around with my friends. And I’m GREAT at skating so this place is so so so FUN and I’ve been going here since I was 1/6 (I’m not gonna say my age but it’s a long time) and my dad works there and it’s so fun and the shop is able to help you guys out with anything and it’s run by a really nice guy and sometimes (Monday Thursday and Saturday sometimes Sunday and not at 6:20-7:20 on Thursday 4-5 on Monday Sunday all day and Saturday 10:30-11:30 and 2-3 and 7:45-8:30) there is a little kid that runs the cash register (that might be me)

“My children have been skating here for almost a year now, and they've been receiving very professional coaching and training! Each coach is very patient and attentive! You can tell they love their jobs and are so dedicated to teaching the children! I'm so happy my children are learning professional techniques and skills here! A huge thank you to Sarah, the owner! And to the coaches: Jennifer, Sarena, Michael, and Nicole, as well as some others whose names I don’t know! Thank you so much! I hope this place continues to do well!”

“The skating rink is very good, the rentals are clean and not old, you just need thick long socks to protect you from getting hurt. Cons: The food/drinks are not good. The seating area is very basic. A little pricy if you have multiple kids or if you're renting walkers.”
