Calalta’s Ice Dance program’s vision is to be a leading Canadian training ground for young, competitive Ice Dancers in the Calgary area, regardless of club and coach affiliation.

The mission of the program is to identify young athletes who have potential in dance and provide them with an opportunity for ice dance training.

Our in-depth training program includes:
  • skills training
  • sports-specific skills
  • suppleness
  • stamina
  • strength training through:
    • on and off-ice sessions
    • ballet
    • ballroom
    • nutrition
    • sports psychology

These skaters will be well suited to consistently advance and demonstrate the core skills required to be competitive throughout various levels of competition in all disciplines.


The program currently features athletes ranging from Pre-Juvenile to Senior level competitors, with each division requiring a variation of set pattern dances and free dances. These athletes train year-round primarily in the morning, while maintaining their individual skating and off ice programming in the evenings and on weekends.

Athletes come from around Alberta and across the country to be a part of Calalta’s ice dance program. Led by Kim Weeks, Ben Westenberger, and Donna Hallatt along with their team of talented supplementary coaches who help make Calalta’s ice dance program the success that it is!
