for kids

First steps on the ice through play — safely, in a small group or one-on-one, with an instructor. From the basics to skating backwards, and for keen kids: figure skating.

How we teach children

Technique that grows with your child

Children learn fastest when they are having fun — so we mix technical drills with games and challenges on the ice. At the same time, from the very first class we work on a correct stance and falling safely, because that is the foundation for everything that follows.

The youngest children usually start at around 4. Not sure if your child is ready? Call us — we will advise whether to begin with a private lesson or join a group straight away.

What your child will learn

Standing on skates, “penguin walking” and the first glide.
Falling safely and getting up from the ice on their own.
Skating forwards without holding the boards, stopping and turning.
Skating backwards and crossovers — and for keen kids, first figure-skating elements.

The instructor sets the pace — every child develops differently and we never rush anyone.

Where we skate

Ice rinks in Warsaw

The 2026/2027 ice season starts in December. We confirm the rink and class times individually when you sign up.

What sets us apart

Kids on ice — safe and smiling

Learning through play

Games, obstacle courses and challenges on the ice — drills kids enjoy that build real technique.

Safety

Mandatory helmets, learning to fall from day one and drills matched to age.

Small steps

Every stage has a clear goal: standing, gliding, stopping, turning, skating backwards. Kids see their progress.

Patient instructors

Instructors experienced in working with children — they know how to tame the fear of ice.

A path to figure skating

Kids who catch the bug can move on to the figure-skating group: spins, spirals, first jumps.

Winter activity

Moving in the fresh frosty air instead of staring at a screen — and a great base for skiing and inline skating.

FAQ

Parents’ questions

From what age can a child start ice skating?

Usually at around 4 — by then a child stands steadily, follows simple instructions and enjoys playing on the ice. For younger kids we suggest a short private lesson to get used to the ice.

Is a helmet necessary?

Yes — at Zone4Skating classes children skate in a helmet. A ski or bike helmet works; what matters most is a good fit.

Does a parent need to be on the ice?

No — during the class the instructor looks after your child. A parent is needed on site before and after the class (children up to 13 may be at the rink only under adult supervision). In a lesson for 2–3 people a parent can also skate together with the child.

My child is afraid of the ice. What then?

That is common and completely normal. We start calmly at the boards, with play and learning to fall — the fear goes away once a child feels that falling is no big deal.
