About Us

Founded in 1945 as the Portage Figure Skating Club and incorporated in 1973, the Portage Skating Club has proudly served our community for over 80 years. As a not-for-profit organization, we are led by a volunteer Board of Directors and partner with NCCP-certified coaches to deliver high-quality Skate Canada programs.

Based out of Stride Place in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, we are proud to welcome skaters from Portage and surrounding communities. Our goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and fun environment where skaters can learn, grow, and discover a lifelong love of skating.
