The Ice Skating Institute (ISI) is a complete graded program of lessons. The ISI Testing Program makes every effort for skaters to earn badges. We will test those skaters only ready to pass, creating a positive environment for learning. It is not uncommon for a student to repeat a level before mastering all the skills at that level. Skaters must be current members of ISI to register tests passed.  Registration forms available at the Skating School office. ISI Badge Board display is in MASC Rink.
