Alright, so I started skating about 2 weeks ago. I took some lessons when I was about 14, but had to quit because our family lived too far from the rink and my mom was not willing to drive me to lessons anymore. I am now 19 and live literally 5 mins from the rink, so I decided to start up again. I remembered a lot of what I learned when I was younger and am able to do forward crossovers, a two-foot spins (its shaky though), and an outside three turn fairly well. I however cannot seem to hold my edges. My couch is having me hold my outside and inside edges as I glide around a circle, and I cannot for the life of me seem to hold them for very long. I practiced them yesterday on my own and realized that they weren't seeming to get much better.
Suggestions would be appreciated!
