Figure Skating PROGRAMS & LESSONS
Figure Skating cAMPS
Oka Figure Skating camps allow for more time on the ice, more intention behind the work, and more connection along the way. These focused experiences create space to refine technique, try new skills, and truly understand their skating, not just rush through it. Skaters train alongside teammates and friends who share the same passion for the sport, creating an environment that feels motivating, supportive, and energizing. Our camps are designed to challenge skaters while meeting them where they are — balancing high expectations with encouragement, laughter, and trust.

LED BY YOUR OKA COACHING TEAM
Purpose & Development Focused
Our team brings a wide range of experience across Learn to Skate and competitive figure skating, with a shared focus on athlete-centered coaching and long-term development.
Athlete-Centered
We believe how you teach matters just as much as what you teach. Our team creates environments where skaters feel supported, challenged, and encouraged to ask questions, take risks, and continue learning.
Lived Experience on the Ice
With firsthand experience as competitive skaters and program leaders across skills, dance, freestyle, and performance, we understand what each athlete needs to grow.
Sample camp sessions
Each Oka Figure Skating camp is thoughtfully structured to support well-rounded development. While the exact schedule may vary by camp, location, and group, sessions are intentionally designed to balance technical training, performance, and off-ice learning.
Foundational Skating & Movement Quality
Focused work on edge quality, power, turns, and control to develop stronger fundamentals, refine skating technique, and create efficient, confident movement across the ice.
On-Ice Power & Projection Training
Drills and guided exercises designed to build speed, strength, and ice coverage that carry directly into jumps, step sequences, and overall skating impact.
Interpretation & Artistry (On & Off-Ice)
Skaters develop musicality, expression, and movement quality while learning how strong technique supports confident skating and authentic presence.
Freestyle Training Sessions
Select camps may include freestyle sessions where skaters focus on learning, refining, and practicing jumps and spins, with guided feedback to support technical development and confident execution.
Off-Ice Athletic Development, Training & Recovery
Structured warm-ups, strength and jump training, and recovery-focused sessions—such as yoga or stretching—designed to support safe training, mobility, balance, and long-term athletic health.
Classroom & Learning Sessions
Interactive sessions may cover skating theory, goal-setting, mindset, or guest presentations, giving skaters tools they can apply beyond camp.

OKA Skating Academy has the MOST friendly faces, encouraging atmosphere and I LOVE the focus OKA has on mastery in each level and the FUN they have... and the relationships they are building with one another and their coaches! You can literally FEEL the genuineness of the girls within this program. I have been involved in many other programs and there are almost NONE that match the level that OKA provides when it comes to the JOY these kids have when they are on the ice with eachother!

CAMP Opportunities
Whether hosted in Williston, Devils Lake, or in partnership with another club, Oka camps are designed to be purposeful, high-energy training experiences. Skaters leave excited and inspired with clearer direction and tools they can immediately apply to their everyday training. Check back often to see upcoming opportunities to learn, grow, and stay engaged in your training.
Figure skating is a uniquely beautiful sport. Not only does it require the strength and power of an explosive athlete, but also the artistry and grace of a true performer.
That balance is developed over time. Skills are earned through consistent work, discipline, and perseverance—through showing up, pushing through challenges, and learning from each step along the way. This process builds more than technical ability; it builds confidence, resilience, and a strong foundation that supports growth both on and off the ice.
At Oka, we believe in training with purpose, care, and intention—meeting skaters where they are while helping them move forward with confidence.
Let’s build that foundation together.

Open Ice Time
While working with a coach to learn proper skating skills is extremely important… so is the time spent practicing those skills outside of our lessons. Your June season registration grants your athlete access to 4+ hours of open ice each week to further practice and develop their skills.
