They don't look very intimidating.
The first thing they teach the kids is how to raise their sticks up and not hit people.
Once all the kids are on the ice they lay down and learn how to stand up. There are a ton of kids, but there are also 10-12 coaches. After practicing standing up they told everyone to skate to one side. This is how they divided up the class. Those that could skate went to one side. Those that couldn't make it were in the other group. Very effective.
Sweet Son made it into the "able to skate" group. Sweet Daughter who can skate pretended she couldn't so she could stay with the female coach. She only made that choice once, haha.

Sweet Daughter scoring a goal. This group spent most of their time learning how to stand up.
After class they were so happy. We knew they were hooked. This is the first sport they have both really loved.
