Today's Ice Time:
Oh, I showed my coach the announcement for Adult Canadians and she was floored that it was all the way in BC. ROTFLOL
She has me teaching two different groups in Learn to Skate and
CanSkate tomorrow morning. She asked me at today's Learn to Skate where I warmed up all the kids on the ice before they went to their groups.
I later was teaching this one girl during her freeskate time about
spirals and doing demos. She was so cute just trying to stroke
forward and then do a two foot guild to left her foot behind her
barely but it gave her purpose to want to try to do what we were
trying to get her to do in her Learn to Skate group. She totally
forgot about the stroking and just did it and totally forgot about
the gliding and did it just to try to do a spiral like me. Not even
close to mine but it was a good attempt for her.
Today while learning my footwork section for my When You Believe Interpretive FS, I did a little Pair Skating with my choreographer. Everything was in unison except for when I got to the dumb LI Op Mo. I don't know why I can do back double 3 in any direction outside and inside but can't do a forward CW 3 or a LI Op Mo. What gives? Why won't my head let me skate it? Yeah, I'm a CCW skater. Anyway, I ran through what I have choreographed so far into a forward spin not really trying getting 5 revs (Tuesday's forward spin had 9 fast revs I was told by my friend) and then exited and got myself to the corner in a pose that says, "Hey Judges, look at me. I'm going to do a diagonal footwork section." This is where I placed the footwork we
worked on today. It was working great until that dumb back LI Op Mo! Frustration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got a decent RFO to RFI spiral with my foot extend above my head and then into my cheated flip/toe combo. It's the flip that is still landed on 2 feet.
