Fine Lines Dance Company is proud to be the home of the Off Ice Edge training program. It is a program designed to train ice skaters off the ice. The program consists of gymnastics, focusing on flexibility and strength, trampoline, working on jump technique and air sense, circuit training, improving endurance, stamina, and dance to embellish style and grace, and better prepare a skater for on the ice.
