Spring Show EXTRA! EXTRA!, Synchronized Skating Open Practices & Tryouts, Skate the Summit Competition, Summer Skating Camp

Purchase Spring Show Tickets

"Extra, Extra!" Friday, May 5th at 7pm and Saturday, May 6th at 2pm.

We are excited to welcome special guest skaters, Angela Wang and Jordan Moeller.  Private lessons with Angela and Jordan will be available to those FSCPC members participating in the spring show.


The coaches and skaters of Park City Icing would like to invite you to come skate with us! We are opening our practices to you so you can learn all about synchronized skating and why we love it! 

Did you know coaches love to work with skaters who do synchro? Synchro skaters tend to have better rhythm, timing, coordination, they pick up choreography quicker and they work well in a group. Synchro skaters also develop more speed, excellent footwork and their individual skating skills improve! Great skills to acquire if you ever want to skate in shows!

We love the teamwork, camaraderie, friendships and relationships that are built. It builds character and teaches important life lessons.

Come try it and see for yourself!  Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns!
