ABOUT THE SERIES<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"The 2026 Season was our twenty-third season as a “Series”! Learn to Skate USA is endorsed by US Figure Skating, USA Hockey, and US Speed Skating.<\/h4>\n

We started the “Series” concept here in South Florida, and it has been extremely beneficial for U.S. Figure Skating across the nation. Series competitions have started in many states all over the country!<\/h4>\n

The 2026 Season included many exciting events for all levels from Snowplow Sam (Tots) to Preliminary levels. There were Aspire, Excel, and Well-Balanced Categories for the higher-level competitors and events for adults as well.<\/h4>\n
