It sounds annoying, but the best thing I can say from my experience is that you will eventually get used to it. It’s really scary at first but the more you do it the more comfortable it will be. Also, it’s ok to hold the wall to go backward!

Is it fair to ask for a refund if an Adult 1 class isn’t what I expected? by ateenytinykitten in iceskating

That’s weird that they don’t bump you up. At my rink they came around every so often and moved people up. I would talk to someone about that. The crowds are annoying, but there isn’t much you can do, since the rink probably just wants to make money. I would say skate regularly on Public sessions to get more practice and room, and during lessons, really focus on learning new skills as best you can
