Of course the most important aspect of ice skating is having access to quality ice rinks that provide the best environment for the aspiring skater in technique development and practice. The Desert Ice Figure Skating Club is proud to have its home ice with the Santa Ana Star Center , which is also the home ice of the famous New Mexico Scorpions ice hockey team. The skating experience at Santa Anna is superior, rivaling that of some of the nation's best skating facilities.
