The Best Rates & Exceeding National Standards 

Looking for a supportive, community-focused environment for your child to learn to skate, master advanced figure skating elements, or further develop their skating skills for competitive hockey? You are not alone. For many years, nearly half or more of our total registration has been made up of skaters travelling from Kincardine, just 14 minutes* away. Local families choose our skating club because we prioritize structured skill development, build lasting confidence on the ice, and foster a welcoming atmosphere for every skater from PreCanSkate to Adult. We are also proud to hold Skate Ontario's highest designation for exceeding national standards in our CanSkate programming.


We have become a trusted destination for families in Kincardine and other surrounding communities, whether for a brand-new skater stepping onto the ice for the first time, aspiring figure skaters, or minor hockey players looking for extra skills and conditioning development with our Power Skating programs. With busy schedules and multiple kids in sports, timing is everything. Parents make the short trip to Ripley for exceptional Skate Canada coaching, smaller class sizes, great rates, and sometimes even for programs that may just fit their schedules better. With programs for skaters turning 3 before Dec 31, all the way up to adult lessons. Check out our classes and compare for yourself.

Kincardine skater share: the percentages above are Kincardine residents as a share of the Ripley-Huron Skating Club's total registration for each season. The 2026-2027 figure is a partial season, counted to date, and is not comparable to the completed seasons before it.

How these prices are compared. Pre-CanSkate, CanSkate and StarSkate are offered at Ripley as two-days-per-week classes for the 2026-2027 season. Kincardine offers single-day classes, so both clubs were compared at two classes per week for this chart. The Ripley-Huron figures include the Skate Canada insurance fee and reflect the prorating discount that applies to registrations made partway through the season, so this column is what you would actually pay at checkout today. The Kincardine figures are the amounts you reach at checkout after signing in: they combine their base program fee after a prorating discount, a $70 second-day charge per skater for the additional day, and a $65 insurance fee, none of which are added until you create an account and reach the checkout. Their column reflects prices published on 2026-11-03 and is checked periodically; their program fees, second-day charge or insurance fee may change without notice, so confirm their current total before you compare. Ripley-Huron prices are our own, live from our registration system, and always current. All figures are in Canadian dollars.
