Coaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy is to inspire in all my skaters a passion and enthusiasm for figure skating. Through a fun, consistent, positive, and encouraging approach, I strive to provide my services to the best of my ability, at all times, in an order that my students can experience and reach their personal best.
My success is measured by the success of my students as they progress through the sport, and more importantly by the joy and satisfaction they discover through figure skating.
