Coaching
Philosophy:
I believe my passion
for skating comes
through on the ice as I strive to bring out the best in each skater.
The use of good technique along with hard work, made easier by the
love of skating, allows us to achieve our individual goals. Many
lessons learned on the ice also help us in our journey through life.
I am dedicated, conscientious, and take seriously the privilege of
sharing my love and knowledge of skating with others.
