We love to skate!!

Our 53rd season is about to begin on Thursday, September 4, 2025. We are looking forward to meeting up again with our members, some have been part of Ladies Silver Blades for more than forty years! We are always looking for new members to join us. You can attend any one of our sessions as a guest to check us out.

From 2 ice shows a year, to our always fun Halloween skate, group events and best of all, our connections with fellow skaters, it’s a great organization to be a part of.

We honor all the women that started this group back in 1973 and the 100’s of women who have skated since then. Bonded by a common passion, we all enjoy the time together to learn skills, develop friendships and participate in many social opportunities throughout the year. And we get some exercise! Women from their 20’s to 80’s take to the ice each week.

WILX Studio 10

So excited to be featured on WILX Studio 10 as we head into the 2026 Olympics. It was a fun day as we always love to share our story with the Lansing Community. https://youtu.be/_Ahw7VCVjOA?si=3E_UucCexzKj5X6P

IN 2023 we were featured on WILX Studio 10:   https://www.wilx.com/2023/01/19/ladies-silver-blades-looking-new-members-their-50th-year/

Our Missionchannel6

To provide a safe learning environment for adult women to pursue their enjoyment for figure skating with a professional coach leading the way.

We skate every Thursday morning, September through mid June, at The Biggby Coffee Ice Cube East Lansing – East Lansing, MI from 9:30 am to 11:20 am.

  • 2 skating sessions
    • Level 1 to learn or work on basic skills
    • Level 2 for advanced skills and new techniques
  • Freestyle
  • Team skating

Participate as much or as little as you like. No one is ever pressured to join in the lessons. Some of us take on the challenge of trying new moves; some of us come just to skate with friends. And all of us enjoy the snack table!

  1. I have just now learned of this and am intrigued! Sounds like it would NOT be a good idea to join now though, but in September 2023. Assume I would not HAVE to be in the Show, right?? That would just terrify me. I love to skate, am not very good but would love to do it more regularly AND possibly learn to skate backwards?! A lifelong dream of mine and I’m 72 🙂

    • Hello Kathleen, You are certainly welcome to join the second half of the season which runs from January to early June. Dues would be $39 or you can wait until September 2023. You certainly do not have to be in the show! We welcome you to come and try it, if you like, a couple of times prior to joining. Just pay the rink fee of $5 per skate. Hope to see you there.
