Learn to Skate offers participants a 3-session introduction to ice skating. No previous experience is required.
Instructional lessons are provided during the first 35 minutes and are followed by 25 minutes of free skate. Lessons focus on developing the following skills:
All participants are required to wear a helmet (bicycle helmet is appropriate). Warm clothes, gloves, and water bottles are highly encouraged. Skate rentals available, please notify jackie.fotino@unh.edu to confirm size and availability prior to registration.
Lessons are held at the Whittemore Center Arena, 128 Main St. Durham, NH. Additional information regarding program drop off and pick up will be sent via email the day before lessons begin by program staff.
Campus Recreation does not provide refunds for skating lessons, including for missed sessions.

Online Registration Instructions: Review before enrolling for the best outcome. Family Accounts are recommended for enrolling multiple children from one family in any UNH Youth Program. If you already have an account in our system, you will be asked to log into either a Family or Student Account after adding the program to your shopping cart. Be sure to use the username and password for the type of account you wish to log into. We recommend attempting to log into the Student or Family account before enrollment opens as this will minimize difficulty and time while enrolling. Email youth.programs@unh.edu if you require assistance recovering your account information. Do not create a new account if you have one already.
If you don't have an account already, you can set up an account at any time, even before you begin the registration process. If creating a new student/individual account, the account must be in the name of the child, but the email address provided in the profile should be that of a parent/legal guardian.
CampDoc: UNH has partnered with CampDoc to quicken the enrollment process. Enrollments and payments will still be done here through our current enrollment system, but no registration questions will be required at that time. Within a few days of enrolling, the email provided in the Student or Family Account will receive an email prompting completion of the registration questions.
Due to very brief timelines between enrollment and the program start date, it is important that a parent/guardian respond to the CampDoc email and complete the registration questions promptly. A parent/guardian must log into the student’s account to review/update information, complete any necessary questions for this program and re-sign some waivers. A participant’s CampDoc profile must be 100% complete before they can attend the program.
For more information, including the CampDoc Support Line, review our “CampDoc” page.
