The Need
Learn to Skate USA® (LTS) is a program governed by USFS to facilitate opportunities for kids to learn the basic skills of Ice Skating. LTS members gain access to a curriculum that offers classes from basic fundamentals to advanced techniques, across multiple disciplines ranging from figure skating to hockey. Our client realized that they could leverage their extensive learning library to an intuitive and convenient mobile solution, making the LTS program more accessible, especially to kids and young adults.
The Solution
In collaboration with LTS stakeholders, we discovered a strong need for a more engaging and user-friendly experience for skaters. Participants wanted quicker access to essential learning content and a more streamlined way to monitor their progress. By focusing on usability and motivation, we set out to create a mobile solution that not only brings the curriculum to life but also inspires young skaters to stay committed and track their development with ease.
