Stirling Ice rink

This summer season Stirling ice rink have sessions for 'Proficient skaters' on the following times:

Mondays 18:00-19:30
Tuesdays 18:00 -19:30
Thursdays 16:00 -17:30
Friday 18:00 -19:30
Saturday 10:00-11:30
Sunday 10:00 -11:30

The flyer says: Proficient skaters -unlike the skate for all sessions these sessions are for skaters of all ages who can confidently skate unaided. You will be skating alongside experienced and confident skaters who may be practicing to improve their technique....
Which basically means you can spin and jump at these sessions.

Holly and I are trying out one or two sessions next week. Is anyone else thinking about going?
