What parents say
“I enrolled my son here for canskate and I can't be happier with this place. He started canskate at SWSC and I wasn't too pleased with their methods but I was willing to enroll him again in the fall but the schedule didn't work for me. So, I enrolled him at Skate Windsor and I am very impressed with the patience and dedication they have with the kids. They really know how to teach young kids and take the time to give more support and attention with kids that are struggling to keep up like my child who at times get frustrated when he falls but I am very impressed with the trainers here and the way the teach kids is also very helpful. I highly recommend this place to anyone, specially if your kids are young and are learning to Skate.”
