Does anybody have recommendations from a perspective where group skate lessons didn't work for their kids whereas one-on-one made some improvements?

Alternatively, what are good ways to teach concepts like "bubbles", "cross-overs", "transitions", and "hockey stops" to kids?
Have to agree with you. We haven't been overly thrilled with the group lessons our daughter has been in. The good part is that it commits me to get her on the ice once a week. But overall, the level of instruction hasn't been there. I have heard of some kids in the CanSkate who seem to be enjoying it and like the program. We will probably try that next.
