1 Year Figure Skating Progress | 70 Lessons | Adult Figure Skating Journey

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Having started at 21 years old, here's my one year progress video of figure skating as an adult! Jumps progress @ 2:43 | Spins progress @ 5:54.
Also my hiatuses/breaks from skating amount to about 5-6 months which is why my videos span across more than a year. Boy have I been itching to get this out, had my 70th lesson yesterday! What an awesome journey this has been so far, thank you for supporting me and keeping me inspired!
Looking forward to posting many more progression videos :)

I'm so inspired by your progress. I have always wanted to figure skate but being in Australia and being 23 I feel like everywhere I go someone is telling me that I missed my opportunity. Nope, you can start at any age and you can get good at any age. I'm gonna do it for me and thank you for showing us how dedication and ambition can breed success whenever you put your mind to it.
Thank you or this lovely comment, couldn't agree with you more. People can stick it. Keep following your dreams and aspirations, no one can predict what hard work can achieve. Wishing you all the best
Lol I live in Brisbane and the only ice rinks are an hour away TwT
Now I feel lucky. My ice rink is 20-25 minutes away from my home.
GIRL I live in Australia too!! We have less than 20 rinks in the whole country, tbh we've been robbed. I'm 19 and did my first skate today!! Let's do this!!
OMG I live in Australia to and I've always wanted to ice skate and I'm starting next year and this video process is so helpful!!
ugh i want to learn figure skating so baaad
just shronks same and my ice rink is an hour away and I don’t have a way to get there regularly😞 the struggle!
@@songbird377 omg sameeee. my ice rink is a hour away aswell. rip
Penny LPS rip our skating goals😭 I’m still gonna try find a way someday though!
@@songbird377 same!! i hope when im 16 i will be able to drive myself there. c: for the meantime though i can go ice skating every once in a while so thats cool
same but we don't have ice rinks all year around just when its winter :(
I've been ice skating for 4 months and I can do 4 jumps but not so stable on spins. It is so nice to see what is possible to achieve in 1 year!
Wow that's great! Good luck on the journey ahead! :)
楊宜瑾 that’s amazing! I’ve been skating almost 2 months so I’m right behind you. 🙂 Which jumps can you do?
I have been skating for 3 years. Love it🙌💖 I can do waltz jump,axel, and death drop,camel, and much more!🙌
I skate and YOU CAN DO IT!
@@Moon-sz1uh :0
It's reassuring to see this type of content.
I'm 21 and will be starting mid to late February. I'm always nervous due to my age, but it is good to see another adult's progress.
Glad to be of help, good luck!
Kudos to both of you! I started lessons at age 22, and was hooked-(even ended up teaching it in my 40s-50s.) At age 65, still skating 3-4x weekly. Have lost some jumps along the way, but never the passion. This is a lifetime sport that yields excellent cardiovascular benefits & strong bones going into your senior years. (Keeps your weight down as well.)
im a young figure skater (bronze level) and i saw some adult skaters at the rink learning, so u can start at any age :D
@@pbaker2001 Wow! That’s so inspiring, I’m 16 and I started skating about a year ago, I’m going to a skate camp to learn more jumps and spins (I only have a single waltz) but I want to compete in competitions, even maybe big competitions some day, I know it’s probably not possible because of when I started compared to others, but there’s no reason to not try. I’ve always thought that maybe one day I’ll give up on skating, because I’ll lose my love, but just going to the rink gives me something to do, something I’m legitimately proud of myself for. I’ve been an artist and pianist for as long as I can remember, but they just don’t bring me as much joy as they did unless I’m just doing it when I want to and not when other people want me to, and I don’t want that with figure skating, I want to be going to the rink in my 60s like you, that’s so incredible!
same! im 20 and I'll be starting to learn this october. I'm not even sure if I can take in-person lessons and I'm watching a ton of videos but I'll be doing my best to achieve *anything* comparable to this haha
i wish i could start ice skating (im 15) but there’s no ice rinks anywhere (joys of living in ireland not in dublin)
You could go in Belfast I live in dublin and I'm 11 and I've been doing it since I was 3 so it's never too late too start . Some of the people in my group come from Belfast or go to Belfast everytime so it's fine. If you need anymore tips and advice just reply to this comment
im not going to drive 3/4 hours just to go ice skating once a week 😂😂 i live on the other side of ireland
I live on the Big Island of Hawaii, where there are no ice rinks. The only ice rink in Hawaii is in Oahu, a 200 mile plane flight away. I cross-train by roller blading.
A A Q they need a rink on every island already! I’m on Oahu and my mom won’t drive me to the Ice Palace because it’s on the other side of the island 🙄
@@songbird377 - I agree! Or at least an indoor roller rink!
the little green boy in the background watching her at 11:20 and then falling is me
HAHAHAHA
Dosn't look like you..🤔

@@Anonymous-uw4sr They meant that they do the same thing when ice skating.
Thank you so much for this. I had a frustrating 2 hour session last night trying to do backwards crossovers (unsuccessfully) Watching your video reminded me to think back to three months ago when I could barely skate forwards or stand upright 😂I’m 52, took up skating in August this year and I am loving it!!! I need to accept it’ll be slow progress sometimes x
My gosh I should be the one inspired by you! I'm sure you'll nail those backward crossovers in no time, each frustrating session is one closer to the one where you complete the skill. Wishing you the very best! xx
I'm 54 and just signed up for lessons! wish me luck! I used to skate a lot when I was younger, but mainly just forward stroking, fwd crossovers (badly), and some backward strokes - you know, rink stuff. But it had been 20 yrs since I'd last touched the ice and I've lost all of it! I'm determined to learn the all the basic stuff the right way! I'm sure some of my friends think I'm crazy but I don't care. People always saying "Oh I'm 20 I'm soooo old...." Haha - NO they're NOT! I'm so inspired by your comment - thank you!! :D
Jacqueline Campbell omg i practiced backwards crossovers last night too! wow and it was hard but i got it in about 30 minutes
Keep going once you get past that you unlock so many things
Omg Jacqueline Campbell sameee I was learning backward crossovers pre pandemic still can’t get them 😭😭😭
I’m 30 and just starting. I’ve always loved skating and I’m looking forward to my progress - I already see it! This video got me more excited :)
This is so exciting! I hope you're enjoying it! xx
Hii I also started when I was 30.. and stressed out at times with my slow progress.. how has your experience been so far??
@@hyojinchapin7671 Funny story, I hurt my toe from my new skate. So I went back to the man who chose the fit for me to help fix it. I’ve been recovering since. I am planning to register again when the group classes start a new semester! :)
I'm 24 and just started lessons last week. This video makes me more motivated than ever! Thanks!!
I'm about to turn 24! Is it hard on your body? I really want to start but I feel so old lol.
I wanna learn to figure skate but I’m 17, and I feel like it’s too late
I feel the same way (i'm 19) but im starting skating lessons tomorrow. I keep thinking of what others are going to think of me trying to skate at such a late age but you know what, I've been wanting to do it for such a long time, I feel like I might as well while I'm still young! We got this!
@@coba4207 I'm almost 20 and in college right now. I've wanted to skate since I was 4, but my parents couldn't afford it. But I've decided I'm gonna take the plunge and start saving for skating lessons. It's NEVER too late. You've got this; we've got this!
Thank you all! I think I’m going to start trying to learn! We all got this!
I’m 28 and started yesterday. There’s people older and younger than me. The longer you wait to start, the older you’ll be.
17 years old is still early. Every age feels like 'too late'. I started when I was 11 years old and even I felt like I started late since there were all these 6 year olds around me. Believe me, feeling like it's 'too late' will only make you regret not having started now later.
Heyyyy fellow Aussie! I used to skate recreationally when I was 15. I'm 36 now and have realised that the ice truly is my happy place so I'm going to start going again, maybe even get some lessons.
I’m in a similar place! Stopped at 14 after a few years of lessons and 34 now and itching to begin again. Once I’m finished having babies I’ll be back!
I’ve been skating for almost 6 years now and just started axels. I was a little kid and was kinda forced into the sport but now I love this sport and am working very hard on it now. You have done so well in just about a year!
Congratulations! I'm so happy to hear that you love it now. Thank you!! x
Kiwi Boba omg same!!
I sadly got forced out if this sport but wanna do it for myself now. Learning the first few jumps now but can't do a one foot spin at all. It's so sad to think that I was on a point where I could have done it in competitive sports but got forced out because of my parents. Hope I'll learn thing this winter again🙏

Well done Imone, I've really enjoyed following your journey! I'm 39 and I started the Skate UK programme in April after seeing your progression vids. Am loving my group lessons, thanks for the inspiration 😘
Thank you!!! So happy to hear you've started skating too :D all the very best
Snap! I’m 39 and getting into skating. It’s never too late to do what you love!
Sian Howells how did it go?
Im in Skate Uk too 😲 and i oop sksksk
At 36, you are giving me inspiration. I tried it twice, and thought maybe one cannot learn as an adult. Definitely going back now
Your progression is fantastic. Hope I can do all this in 1 year.
Thank you!!! I'm sure you will! x
I'm 13 and just started figure skating and I'm so happy the rink is 5 minutes drive away
Ahaha lucky! The closest rink to me is 4 hours away 😅
I’m a year younger and really want to start but I have to ask my parents first🥲
@@junghoseok1162 do it!!! i’m currently on Lts3 and it’s so worth it
I thought I was too late to figure skating (I was 12 back then) but this is making me realize that I’m actually pretty early skating because sometimes I wished that I knew there was figure skating lessons because I always was obsessed with ice skating ⛸
i got my skates today and im planning on starting casual lessons soon, thank you for making me feel like less of a hag at 25 😭 it’s so comforting seeing others start in their twenties
Hahaha not at all! Hope you're enjoying your journey! x
Okay your reactions to doing your first crossovers & spins made me tear up a little! I totally remember that feeling. I started skating 2 years ago and I remember just wanting to know how to do crossovers & the day I finally did one...it was just pure joy. Just like I saw on your face!
You rock. We're just going to get better & better. 👍😊
Awww this comment is so sweet :O It's such an amazing feeling isn't it? We tend to forget just how far we've come, even today, my first crossovers will always feel like one of my greatest achievements. And heck yeah we're gonna get better! Wishing you all the best :D xx
@@ImoneOnIce thank you so much ! I've really enjoyed watching your journey! 😊
I loved figure skating since I was 4, I have been skating on my own for 14 years and just practicing because my parents couldn't afford it. Now I am almost 18 and I bought my first pair of expensive good figure skates and I am gonna start lessons soon. I feel like its never to late to start lessons and you just need to follow your dreams. Thank you for being a insparation to all those people who feel like they are to old to learn, because its never to old to learn as long as you put your mind in to it
Thank you so much for this comment! I'm proud of how far you've come and the dedication you've shown for the sport. It really never is too late to start something. Wishing you all the best! xx
That's so inspiring! I'm about to get my first skates in twenty years!
That's so awesome! :D :D :D
For me it’s back after nearly that long. 😊
congratulations! ive been doing ice skating for around a month so far and ive improved tremendously with my frontwards and backwards swizzle, 2-foot glide, 1-foot glide, crossovers etc. it's pretty amazing to see what you've done in 1 year :))
Thank you! So glad to hear of your progress, keep up the great work! I can still remember how amazing it felt to skate backwards for the first time :D xx
When you jump, try bringing your arms in. It helps 😁 beautiful progress
Noted :) Thank you!!
Wow you're a great jumper! In my group we only learn waltz, sal and toe, I've been skating for almost a year now and we don't get taught quite as many elements as you know 😅 Private lessons must make a great difference!
Thank you! Private lessons definitely helped me a lot :)
The same with me! 😅
I've been figure skating for 8 years now, and I think it's really impressive how much you learned in one year. I've always been better at spins than jumps. Good job, keep working!
Thank you so much! 💕
This is so reassuring because it makes me think that when backward crossovers were my basics, soon it could be axels
Absolutely agree!! It's all a process and getting stronger and more confident comes with practice and time :)
This popped up in my recommended feed randomly and I think it’s a sign that I should continue to try to learn how to skate
I was going to start classes this year but they had to cancel this season’s adult classes due to covid, here’s to hoping they’re open again mid August 😔
Go for it! Hoping you can skate soon :) x
Waw! Im 28 and started regular skating last week. Still working on my balance while gliding, but i think i will start taking lessons. This is so inspiring
That's awesome to hear Noor, keep up the great work! Thank you for this comment xx
That rink is where I first started figure skating too! I can't wait for it to reopen after the renovations.
So inspiring. I want to get back into figure skating again. I bought a pair of skates in 2016 and had 6 private lessons and stopped after forward crossovers.
Hope! I’m 21. This has further inspired me to really get out there and start lessons!
So happy to hear that! Wishing you all the best!
Love your enthusiasm!! Hope you're still skating!
Thank you! I am :D
Thank you for this! I’m 21 and I really wanna start skating. I loved watched people do it as a kid but never tried. Unfortunately my country’s in lockdown so my local rink is closed until atleast February. I’m roller skating at the moment to help improve my balance and leg strength before I start but it’s so motivating to see you start at the same age as me and have come so far ❤️
Thank you for this comment! My opinion is go for it! Roller skating will definitely help you down the track :) x
Just wanted to say that 4 years on, your video is still really encouraging 😊 I just started learning and am already 40 and not very fit after 3 children but I hope I can progress at least half as fast as you did!
Thank you so much 😍 So happy to hear you've started skating and to be honest I have a lot of respect for you, here's wishing you all the best! x
I’m about to be 16 and my parents finally got me the lessons I’ve been wanting for 4 years for my birthday. I’ve already been to a few and I just want to keep learning and practicing! I’ve never been so in love with a sport. The rink I take lessons at is 45 mins away tho, so I can’t practice as much as I would like to...
Glad to hear you've been able to make a start!!! x
Imone!OnIce apparently I made a really good start! The coaches are already thinking of moving me 5 levels up
This was so inspiring I’m 20 and am booking a lesson for next week 😽 can’t wait
I'm so glad to hear that! Wishing you all the best! x
Your progress is fantastic and I can already tell you have the mindset of a skater (aka crazy, but in a good way 🤣)! I didn’t start skating until I was 27 and now I’m a coach! And you seem much younger than I am so sky’s the limit for you! Congrats on your accomplishments and here’s to your continued success!
Thank you hahaha that makes sense! A coach? That's so amazing! Oh man, I have a lot to do before I get to your level hahaha thank you for your kind words!! xx
Thank you so much for this, I'm 22 and have been considering taking figure skating lessons (I had them for a year when I was 13 but wasnt as ready and passionate as I am now about it) and I really needed this
Sorry for the late reply! I'm so happy this helped :) Hope that you've been able to make a start? Good luck! xx
I’ve been skating for years and this makes me wish I documented my progress in the early stages. It’s so easy to get caught up and think you’ve made little to no progress at all
I feel ya! On the days where I'm feeling unhappy with my progress, I always go back to where I started and remind myself to keep some faith. It's never too late to start tracking it though :)
For everyone that says that they feel they are too old to skate, i started skating when i was 17 and about 4 months from when i started, landed my axel. Its really all about mental strength and thinking positively, no one is too old to skate ❤️
Couldn't agree more!
This is an awesome video to encourage those who began "later" or haven't yet begun. Needless ta say, start as soon as possible...the younger you begin the easier it will be probably! Smile. I began at age 66 and skated from 2006 'til 2010.
Thank you and thanks for sharing your experience! That's so inspiring :) x
@@ImoneOnIce Hugs to you! I appreciate your kind reply! May God bless you and your family today and always!!
:00 wow you are doing so well! i wish my coach would let me start doing jumps but she is very adamant about having me get all my spins down first
Thank you :) That is very interesting, I suppose every coach works differently!
im 19 and have been wanting to get better at ice skating (just bought a pair!) and this is sooo inspiring
So happy to hear that! x
Thank you for sharing this! I’m 22 and want to begin ice skating! But I gotta wait for quarantine to stop...
No worries at all! That's super exciting 😃 Here's hoping quarantine ends quickly for ya!
I really wish there wish there were ice rinks near me in the uk.. id love to learn figure skating but the closest experience i can get to it without having to take hour long car rides is roller blading 😔😔
Sorry to hear than :( Perhaps rollerblading is worth the try ?
hello there!!! im turning 45 this January 2022 and even though you are way way younger than I am, you still inspired me to probably ice skate do some of the moves you learned.. good for you!!
I'm so happy to hear I could be of help :) And also that's awesome! Keep up the great work! :D
Amazing! I'm starting my journey now. I'm 28, almost 29 years old. Thank you for the video! :)
Thank you for watching! Wishing you all the best on your journey!
QUEEEEEN omg you are doing so well, absolutely inspirational. Many people believe they can't learn something new once they are in their 20's, or even teens. But you proved that wrong! Also your development was pretty quick! If that were me, I would still have trouble with swizzles hahahaa
Awww this is such a lovely comment thank you so much!
@@ImoneOnIce :D seriously, so much potential and talent!
I did 3-4 hours a week private practice over 18 months , i am 61 , just learning waltz jump and one foot spins now. watch out for the way you fall ! Not hitting the ice its self . Had my worst fall twisting my torso on a fig 8 turn 7 weeks recovery. Then along came covid and lockdown . Did a simple program summer 2019 . Go for it !!!
You're amazing! I'm definitely an awkward faller... but I'm working on it haha. Sorry to hear about your injury! 🤭
I'm starting lessons next week! I'm going to buy my first pair of skates tomorrow and I'm so excited! 😄⛸️
Wishing you all the best!!! :D x
@@ImoneOnIce Thank you! And I wish you the best on your skating journey too! 😄
My plan is, when I’m around 15 or 16 ( I’m currently 13 ) and I can drive, I’m going to drive myself to an ice rink nearby and try learning it. I can’t right now, since my parents think I don’t need to ice skate, so they won’t let me do it. 😞 But when I’m old enough to make my own decisions, I’m going to actually try learning it. Ice skating just seems so beautiful and elegant. I really want to learn it!
Edit: I’ve been going ice skating for about 2 months now!!! My older brother got his driver’s license and it’s a 30 minute drive to the ice rink, but it’s worth it. I’m picking up my new skates in 2 days too!
You sound determined and like you have a plan which is awesome! Hoping you can skate very soon! 💕
I want to start figure skating. I've been wanting to do it for about a year but have been too scared to try. This year I have decided I'm definitely going to try and start. I don't know if you're gonna reply but do you need to take lessons to learn or can you just teach yourself? And also do I need to buy skates?
Ok thankyou 💗
I want to thank you for this video, it's giving me all reasons to just do it, and start ice skating as I dreamt of it as a little girl... This year is the good one, this is it, I'm gonna do it, thanks to you
You are so welcome! I'm so chuffed to have been able to help you begin your journey, it's going to be amazing and you'll do awesome things. I'm wishing you all the very best and I'm really looking forward to your comment in the future!!!
Hahaha, I recognise my home ice at the O'Brien Arena! I'm guessing the other arena is the Olympic Ice Skating Arena. So fantastic to watch your progress, super inspiring :)
Yes it is! I also skate at the new Reservoir one :) Thank you for your encouragement! :D
omg i skate there too
try keeping your blade/boot off the ice when your doing a broken leg it will make you spin a lot faster. If it is hard for you to keep your foot off the ice try holding the leg up with your hands just by grabing it then once you get that down then you can start spinning without grabbing your leg
I've been considering getting into figure skating for a long while now, but as soon as i was ready to go and give it a try, we got put into another lockdown :( absolutely gutted but i guess I'll just have to research and get fitter for now :(
Hang in there, hoping you'll be able to start soon x
Good for you !!! Coaches matter....also, ice dancing and learning figures will really help with your balance and edges.
Thank you! I agree, I feel like my basics have a long long way to go.
I've just started ice skating lessons at 26 years old. Only week 3 but I'm falling in LOVE with it! So exciting to see your incredible progression
So happy to hear this, thank you for your lovely comment!!! Wishing you all the best xx
Girl I am jumping up and down for you, congrats!! You are awesome!
Aww thank you!!! x
It’s been my dream to figure skate for years and I’ve never pursued it. I’m 21 at the moment and I’m so inspired and excited to start practicing consistently and see this kind of progress some day!!!
So happy to hear this!!! Wishing you all the very best on your journey ahead
This is so inspirational - thank you! I completed a few items as a teen but had to choose activities in high school and chose other things. I’ve always missed it. Even the smell of the ice makes me cry - it’s in our bones! Congratulations on all you’ve accomplished and thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much, this is a lovely comment! I couldn't agree more! Hoping you're looking at getting back into it? x
So cool! As a Dutchie I've learned to ice skate as a kid, but only on Dutch long distance skates. I've always marveled at figure skating! I'm now 22 and 2 years back I decided I want to learn figure skating too once I can afford classes!
That's great! Good luck! :)
this is so encouraging thank you!
You're so welcome :) thank you for watching!
I've been skating twice a week for a year and three weeks with no "hiatuses" and I can't do half the stuff you do...mostly the spin half. Your spins after 2 months were better than mine are after over a year. :'( But! Anyway! Very impressive progress, keep having fun, wearing kneepads (No Bruised Knees Club!) and unleashing your fury at small children who dare to impede your skating.
Everyone progresses so differently and that's the frustrating and beautiful part of skating I suppose. You probably have skills that I don't! Don't be so hard on yourself! There are so many things I wish I'd achieved by this video but it's less about the time and more about the quality :)
Hell Yass to the No Bruised Knees Club my friend
You're giving me so much hope that I could do figure skating again one day. I started when I was 13 years old and had to stop after one year due to moving in another town. Now I'm 17 years old soon and I've been so afraid that I'll never be able to do figure skating again because of my age. Thank you for your videos!
Thank you for watching, wishing you all the best, I'm sure you'll surprise and impress yourself! x
@@ImoneOnIce Thank you so much!
wowwowowowowowowowowowowwww im so glad I sat and watched all ur vids till this bc u really gave me hope in getting better (:
Aw this is so sweet! Good luck x
Fantastic video and thanks. The addition of which months you were where helps a lot. Inspiring video. Also an adult skater ( am 67 been skating for 3 months). Shows what things I can expect to do in a few months.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful, good luck on your journey!
im such a sap, this video makes me want to cry!
Aw this is so sweet! xx
A tip from a fellow skater: you should fix the placement of your non skating leg while in the air, it will help rotate faster and it will make the jump look better. BTW you did great!
Thank you for that! Will try to improve this :)
I’ve been skating for about 8 months and this has really motivated me to continue! (not that I even wanted to stop haha) I should be starting my axel soon and I have a competition in March. This was an awesome video I wish I would’ve done the same thing!!!!
So happy to hear that, thank you! Wishing you all the best! xx
I started skating at age 50 to fulfill a lifelong dream. I had a fabulous skating experience, except for a broken back and two hip fractures. Oops! I am going back to skating in the next few weeks at age 72. Your video was a great reminder of what an extraordinary journey skating is. You have made terrific progress and are a lovely skater! Would love to see a program you've skated if you decide to post one. I hope you are VERY proud of yourself.
Thank you so much for your kind words and sharing your experience which is so inspiring to me!!! Here's wishing you the very best on your skating xx
I started figure skating at age of 53. I haven't picked it up as quickly as you but I have learned up to Flip jump and I have taught myself so much in the way of fancy footwork which I love. I am rubbish at spinning through. Well done you learning all that in a year.
Thank you :) I wish my footwork was way better! Good on you for getting it solid :D
it so good to hear you say how much time practice and private coaching had taken you where you are at success you reached. I was about to give up, thinking something wrong had gone with me, that fell to improve.
thanks to you that I learned it takes much longer time, to get what my mind thinks I am capable to skate the levels I want.
Absolutely agree with you, that's one of the toughest things about skating: feeling stagnant. But I'm glad you are feeling motivated to keep at it! I hope you get to where you want to go! x
This is awesome! I recently became inspired to take up ice skating and started my first class yesterday. It’s reassuring to see the progress that is possible to achieve. Thanks for keeping me determined and motivated to someday reach this point.
I'm so happy to hear that, thank you for your comment! Hoping your skating is going well? All the best! xx
Watching your progression was amazing. From figure skater to Figure skater, you are inspiring
Thank you so so much, this is such a lovely comment! x
I'm 17 years old laying-on-a-coach master :D
While all peers I know want to try dancing, yoga or fitness, I've got interested with ice skating. Hopefully will start my lessons in the next month! That's going to be _haaaaard..._
Thank you for the motivation!))
Hahaha good on you for wanting to start something new! Happy to help :)
I love your account name!! And this progress is so impressive, I want to become as good as you!
This is such a beautiful comment!!! Thank you so much
Wow! You are very talented! I may go ice skating lessons too and im a bit scared but still you are doing such a great job! :)
Thank you!! x
I'm so obsessed with the excited face you make when you make a breakthrough on something 😊
Omg this is so sweet xx
Thank you for making this!! I'm on my 4th lesson, and it's so great to see what I could achieve in a year! It fills me with quite a bit of determination.
So glad to be of help! You got this!! x
I once skated and was pretty good at it (I could do axel and a couple doubles). But then I stopped for two years, now I'm finally starting again after that long break thanks to videos like these reminding me of how much I loved it.
It's an inspiring sport! Glad to hear you're back :)
So excited for you! Also excited to see how much your backspin has progressed! For me, finally finding that outside edge in the backspin was like a religious experience. My soul ascended, I found peace. Lmao but really you look great and you are making so much progress!! Progress really isn’t always linear and I think a lot of skaters forget that, so we are often hard on ourselves.
Thank you!!! The backspin was a foreign concept to me for a long time hahaha couldn't agree with you more! Definitely, life has its own course sometimes and there are priorities, but that doesn't mean we love skating any less! xx
Im starting skating in 2 months
I used to take lessons when i was like 6 but i stopped because i started karate, I've been in karate for 9 years now, im 16 and want to skate again
It looks so incredibly fun, i love using my body to tell a story and this is another way to do it
That's awesome! It's a difficult but beautiful sport. Good luck! :) x
Wow what incredible progress! One tip is make sure your not doing everthing from your upper half! Like in your loop let you edges do it not your shoulders:) also make sure in your camels you straighten and lock you supporting leg❤️
Thank you! Will definitely take that feedback on board :)
Such a great progress and motivational video! You're inspiring me to go back into figure skating..as an adult now 😂👍🏻
Thanks so much :) Hope you do decide to start it up again :)
You inspired me to also start figure skating, even though I'm 25 years. Love your video's and seeing your progress, it is good to know what is possible with time. I think you are doing really great, it looks great!
I'm so so happy to hear that, thank you!! Good luck :) xx
I'm 24 and just bought my first pair of skates! I've never skated before, super excited to start!!
That's awesome! Good luck :)
I am an adult skater who became a coach. You make a great case for private lessons. IMO, you have made xlt progress in one year.
dude this is awesome you're SUCH a strong skater! inspiration to start learning how even though I'm 14
Aw thank you so much, this is such a lovely comment!! So happy to hear you're thinking of starting! xx
Congrats! You have come so far! 🥰😘

Pretty good actually, thank you for asking! I improved a lot in a very short time. Unfortunately i had to take a break for corona and i was sick ;-; but i’m gonna come back in about two weeks, can’t wait!
This made me smile. You have gotten so far and done so well. I want to start figure skating, but i can only make it to the closest rink in the winter, and im too scared to ask for lessons. It might happen, but i doubt it. And this video gives me so much hope.
Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear that, here's wishing you the best on your journey! xx
This is so good! I’ve been skating for 6 years and now getting all my doubles😁
Good work! Lots of progress.
I started in January, and this is reminding me to make another progress vid.
Thank you! Wishing you good luck!
Awesome progress! I definitely could not do this much after just a year haha. But I just can't help but notice that you don't tuck your arms in while jumping, you just kinda let them fly around. Tucking them in like when doing a spin makes you rotate faster and makes the jump look more put together.
Looking into lessons today can’t wait to start!am 14 and ice skating has been a dream every since I stepped foot on the ice.
That's incredible! Good luck :) x
This is so motivational. I was scared that I couldn't do it because I'm a late starter (age 21). But this gives me hope that I can also achieve spins and jumps 💕 thank you so much...
I'm so glad to hear that
I love this I went to learn just like you!! ❤️❤️
Aww thank you x
I started at the age of 6 then after 2 years I stopped bc I was expected to do good in school and ballet, I'm turning 15 this month and I was so afraid that its too late to start again, you literally just saved me 😭
Thank you for sharing your experience and I hope you're looking to start again, wishing you all the best 💕
Awesome! Another truely inspirative soul!
Thank you for this lovely comment! :) x
Hi. I want to share my experience too. I started this year, on February, and I'm 21. I basically passed my Level 1 for ISIA. And unlike you, I'm not practicing every week since I'm a medical student and I'll do it on my holiday. But we'll be pro ones together, one day!
Good luck!! xx
