Tried it last year at a Learn to Curl Program for FREE. I loved it and would suggest it to others. Ice time can get a bit expenisve though. But it really is a blast. Watching it on TV during the Olympics can get you interested but there is nothing like getting out there and doing it.

BTW, it's not nearly as easy as it looks on TV.
