MA Membership & MA Instructional Plans
About
MA Membership and MA Instructional Plans are two of only a handful of requirements that apply to all Membre-Athlètes (MAs) of Roller Louisiane who are specializing in artistic skating.
For a refresher of all requirements, use our ProGuide on Class & Athletics Requirements.
Note for Students
Class students at all three levels—C1, C2, C3—do not need to enroll in our Membership or Plans until the student (Cadet) graduates at the C3 level. When a Cadet graduates, they become an MA-1. Membership and Plans only apply to MAs (athletes) and apply equally to all MAs at all three levels: MA-1, MA-2, and MA-3.

Audiences
The 4x Weekly Instructional Plan (this) is designed for any and all MAs. For anyone who does not have a partner (majority of athletes), this package can be used on any given week to attend 1 group lesson in figures and 1 group lesson in free skating on Saturdays, as well as 1 group lesson in figures and 1 group lesson in free skating on Mondays. For MAs who are pairs skaters, this plan is 1 of 2 options (compare with the 3x Weekly Plan), whereby each MA in the pair still take figures and free skating but have additional group lessons for pairs. Each MA in the pair is required to choose either the 3x or 4x Weekly Plan options.
Private Lessons
MAs who enroll in this plan should consult with the head coach prior to purchasing a private lesson. Like group lessons, private lessons enjoy special pricing ($20/MA). Unlike group lessons, private lessons are subject to availability and generally used, although not limited to, planning free skating programs (choreography and layout).

0x • PAYG
Although it is the least advised of the four Plans, the 0x Weekly Plan option is available and is Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG), making this Plan ideal for anyone who prefers full control of when the MA takes instruction (group lessons). This Plan is priced at $0/month because it does not include any instruction (group lessons) or private lessons.
