Whether you’re a skater who became an adult, or an adult who became a skater, the Washington Ice Emeralds have a team for you.
We have three adult teams covering a range of skill and commitment levels, and we would encourage all skaters considering joining to consult which team might be a great fit for you! Financial assistance may be available.
| Team Name | Ages | Season Length | Practice Commitment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adult Intro | > 18 | Rolling 6-8 week series | 1.5 hours/week (1 hour on ice) |
| Open Masters | > 25 | June, August-March | 2.5 hours/week (1 hour on ice) |
| Open Adult / Masters | > 18 / 25 | June, August-January | 2 hours/week (1 hour on ice) |
Adult Intro
This team is a great option for adult skaters (Basic 5+) who are building confidence on ice and want to try synchronized skating, are not yet comfortable competing in qualifying competitions, or are unable to tackle the time commitment of the other adult teams. Check back this summer for information on our next series!
New to synchro? We also offer adult Learn to Synchro classes! Our next series will start up in the Fall. Check back this summer for registration information.
Open Masters
This team is about building our synchro skills towards our greater aspirations and sharing camaraderie. The team during seasons not affected by a pandemic competes in Sectionals, qualifies for Nationals every year, and performs in local exhibitions. They have historically competed at the Masters and Adult III (Canada) levels.
Open Adult/Masters
This team is made up of skaters from various skating backgrounds, some who had life take them off the ice as they relocated, families grew, or work became a focus. We love providing a welcoming community back onto the ice in the Seattle area! The team typically competes in two competitions a season and performs in local exhibitions. They have historically competed at the Adult, Open Adult, and Adult II (Canada) levels and this upcoming season are planning to compete at Masters. The team’s average USFS Moves in the Field test passed is Novice.
