Torvill & Dean launch British Ice Skating Academy of Dance
BIS announced today the British Ice Skating Academy of Dance - to be based in Sheffield, Torvill and Dean will be the head coaches and mentors. Glad to see this be launced - I've felt for a long time that this is how their legacy should be used! Interested to see how it does, and if it will lead to being government funded again.The BBC aired an interesting documentary the other night about the Olympics and government funding - mostly about how increasing funding has led to more medals. Makes you wish they would fund skating properly! It is a 3 part documentary, with the second airing tomorrow.
