SKATING SCHOOL CONTINUATION GROUP TEMPPUILLEN TAITAVAKSI 

All children aged 3–7 are welcome to join the Temppuillen Taitavaksi (TT) group. The TT group is a continuation group for children who are enthusiastic about skating. The training focuses on learning the basics of skating and simple tricks through fun and playful exercises. The TT group provides a strong foundation for physical activity and for developing the fundamental skills of figure skating. Our aim is to provide versatile physical training, develop children’s physical abilities and teach different sport-specific skills. In the TT group, children develop their physical skills through play, enjoyment and a positive approach to learning. The group also supports the development of social skills, teamwork, concentration and the ability to follow instructions. The skills learned during childhood, together with versatile training, provide an excellent foundation for school physical education as well as pursuing any sport, even at a competitive level. 

The focus of ice training is on the basics of skating, including skating forwards and backwards, edge work, gliding and stopping. Figure skating elements such as turns, spins and jumps are also introduced. Off-ice training includes basic physical skills, motor skills and figure skating-specific skills. Training other sports is also actively incorporated into the off-ice sessions (e.g. gymnastics, ball games and dance)
