Registration Updates
Registration for the August 2025 Summer Session is available to current Skate Canada members.
2025/26 Season Registration opens in August 2025.
A YEAR-END CELEBRATION
The Yellowknife Skating Club hosts a year-end celebration every season to highlight our skaters' progress and share their achievements with the community.
We alternate between a full-scale Ice Show and a simpler Showcase each year:
- Ice Show (held every 2 years): A professionally styled performance with themes, choreography, costumes, props, and lighting.
- Showcase (held in alternate years): A fun, low-key event with group routines based on a theme, but without costumes or lighting.
These events offer skaters of all levels the opportunity to perform in a team setting and experience the excitement of a show environment.
