Other skating experience/specialties:
Coaching philosophy: My coaching philosophy is based on my belief that strong communication is the key to successful relationships. I want to have open communication with the parents of my skaters. I want to know and understand my skaters as people. I believe my role as a coach places me in a unique and privileged position to impart to my students not only technical training but also guide my skaters on their path to developing other skills they will carry to every part of their life: determination, discipline and understanding the value of hard work- the parts of skating that develop your confidence and self-esteem. Skating offers a real opportunity to do this while engaging in a sport that is a joyful experience. |
