What Is The Difference Between The Figure Skating Turns?

Hello Skaters! Today I am going to try and explain the difference between 4 of the figure skating turns... Three Turns, Brackets, Counters and Rockers. They can be pretty confusing to understand, so I hope my this video helps you understand, as you learn the 32 different versions of these turns!

Yay! Rockers and counters have arrived on Coach Julia! Sometimes when i do a bracket, i get a countrr by accident! 😅 I hope it still looks nice.

[@sabrinabaraldi2812]

Thanks to the useful tutorial, I can still do the turns after 30 years but forgot the names 😂😂

[@chiutwan]

Of all the explanations about these turns and how to tell them apart, yours is the easiest for me to understand and remember. Thank you!

[@alliauyeung3004]

Love these videos! You’re so good at explaining stuff. Would love to see a video about the “finesse” of posture and lines? I can do most of the MITF and jump all the singles but my choppy and robotic looking back crossovers still give me away as someone who started skating recently as an adult.

Julia the zooming in... featuring bullet explaination of each element and video graphing clarity is much appreciated by me, an adult skater . I cannot thank you enough how I have evolved thanks to you! ⛸xx

[@heatherchoate6968]

This was so helpful! Thanks for the drawings on the ice and the bulleted differences at the end!

[@briansmith1218]

You're really amazing with explaining all this. Skating for my second time in a week after a 20 year hiatus, I think I was able to figure out the Mohawk turn!

Thanks Julia. This is very helpful. I have so much to practice and learn!! I've been rehabbing a knee but hoping to be back on the ice this week:)

[@SaccoBelmonte]

Thank you do much! I have so much fun ahead of me. So far I'm fluent with inside and outside forward to backwards 3 turns. I feel I'm gonna have a blast with counters and rockers.

[@teddysbusybook9594]

Thanks. Was practicing the turns on weekend. ❤

[@yazgamy3783]

Thank you Julia! ❤ Your explanation has helped me a lot, it is very difficult for me to change direction with only one foot, I appreciate if you have more tips

[@jennhott-leitsch7918]

Thanks for sharing! I was wondering about this.

[@ruth3082]

This has been crystal clear. Thank you so much.

[@Escape2Eclipse]

This was so helpful! Seeing the shapes drawn out was great as well! Thanks for another great video :)

[@naturelover1284]

I am enjoying any drills, skills, and modifications you can give. Group lessons seem to go through a required progression bypassing that. I may be at 4-6 level forever, but hopefully I can still increase skills. Thanks!

[@noorallawati5390]

Very interesting! Im on 3 turns now .. at the wall still haha

[@user-rq9rg9hv1c]

You explained very well. Thank you!

[@joeybaker1030]

This is the best explanation I’ve found! Can’t wait to get on the ice now 😉

[@lilianmatheson3664]

Very helpful. Thank you

[@metalheadlass9868]

Wow great explanation! I don’t gate these turns anymore 🤣 they’re actually fun
