All sessions will be conducted via zoom. Skaters are strongly encouraged to have their cameras turned on for all sessions so that instructors can provide feedback and ensure participants are moving safely. Classes are best taken in a room that provides enough space for participants to move freely. Running shoes are required and yoga mats are strongly recommended.

Participants are asked to log-on to all classes at least 5-10min in advance. Zoom links will be emailed out on Monday, May 31st.
