    "The skating lessons seem expensive, but are well worth the attention and care to which the teachers give students of all ages. Great job working with my 7-year-old on coordination and confidence."

    "Come on weekdays ; even taking a day off is worth your sanity compared to weekend "combat shoppers". Night & day difference in the size & rudeness of crowds compared to Saturday or Sunday."
