Professional ice skating instruction at Lee Valley Ice Centre's two Olympic-sized rinks, for ages 3 and up. Coaches include Winter Olympians. Offers solo lessons, group classes, and online sessions.
The new Lee Valley Ice Centre is a beautiful facility with two Olympic size ice rinks. This makes training much easier as there are many patch ice sessions that run concurrently with public sessions on the separate rinks. I've taken both group and private lessons with Marika and Vitaliy, and would highly recommend them! They're both very patient and cater their lessons towards skaters of all different ages and skill levels.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with children aged 3 and up who want structured skating development rather than casual rink sessions. Coach Marika is specifically praised for diagnosing technical flaws and building skills in the correct order.

“Marika came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Extremely skilled at diagnosing technical flaws, very willing to listen to what I was trying to achieve, patient, gave clear instructions and progressions as to how to work on the flaws. Friendly and enthusiastic. Will definitely be going back for more input once I have worked on what I took away from the lesson for a while.”

“I had my lesson with Marika and it was fantastic! I’d been struggling with the intro to change of edge for a while, and just after her tip about opening the hip — it finally clicked. That was amazing! She has a real gift for building your skillset in the right order, making sure every foundation is solid before layering on the next challenge. If you're looking to work on footwork or enhance any other aspect of your skating, she's someone you definitely want to learn from.”
