Specialty Swimming Lessons "We approached West Shore Parks & Recreation for the first time a few years ago when my daughter needed a specially designed private aquatic program. The instructors and aquatic programmer were very willing to take on this unique opportunity to assist even though it was new to them too. The program has given her confidence and muscle strength as well as enjoyment while working on her recovery. I would like to thank all the staff for their kind assistance, understanding and support for my daughter. They have helped her turn a potentially rough experience into lots of fun.”

SKATING LESSONS Described as an early specialization sport, learning to skate is the first step in developing the next hockey player or figure skater. Our NCCP trained instructors develop engaging lesson plans that help your child develop the necessary skills of skating. These skills will improve your child’s physical literacy and help to develop other sport specific and fundamental movement skills.

The Greater Victoria Active Communities Learn to Skate Program is a regional initiative of seven municipalities of Greater Victoria. This program is streamlined and designed so that any pre-school or school age child can have their accomplishments transferred from one center to another.

This is a badge incentive program that emphasizes the importance of comprehensive feedback through a report card. Our Skate Team Leader is on the ice during all lesson times and can answer questions regarding lessons and your child’s skating progress.
