Learn to Curl

For those who are interested in curling, but have little to no experience, the Cincinnati Curling Club offers educational programs to meet your needs. Learn to Curl classes are 2-hour sessions led by our certified curling instructors intended to provide those new to curling with the essential skills needed to get started in the sport. 
 
The class will start with safety and then move through the skills and techniques of getting a stone down the ice. The second half of the class will cover scoring and strategy and include a small game. The whole program is built upon hands-on-learning and curling traditions, so you don't just hear about it. You experience it.
  
If you'd like to be notified when new classes are open for registration, you may add your name to our Learn to Curl Notification List.
  

Registration & Fees

Individuals or groups of friends may register and submit payment through our online portal. The cost is $50 per participant for a two-hour session led by certified curling instructors.

Please see the Group and Corporate section for information and scheduling of Private Group Outings.

What to Expect

  • All equipment is provided by Cincinnati Curling Club
  • The class is 2 hours in length.
  • Students will learn on-ice safety, etiquette, basic skills development
    (delivering a stone, sweeping, etc), as well as scoring and strategy.
  • A short match against other first-time curlers.
  • Broomstacking (socializing) afterward in the bar with your fellow curlers.

What to Wear

Participants should wear non-restrictive clothing. You will be doing lunges. Make sure you can move in your outfit without tripping over it. 
Please bring clean shoes. Leaving a trail of dirt and debris on the ice will reduce everyone's ability to have fun.
We advise you to dress in layers. You will be on ice, so expect it to be cold. However, once you start moving around, you'll warm up a little. So plan ahead.
