Hello. Firstly i want to say sorry for my bad english. I am a girl from sweden that doesnt know english that well.
I am 13 years old and soon 14. I cannot start figuring skating until december next year for personal reasons so i will be around 15 when i start.
I have money for private lessons but in sweden it is not possible to have private lessons because they are strictly for elite skaters, swedens population is pretty small and not enough coaches are here to coach pupils. I will start with group lessons as recommended by people online. I have 2 ice rinks near me so i think i will pratice often. Im thinking maybe 3-5 times a week. Is it possible for me to land an axel before i turn 17? i am very passionate about this sport and will try hard and even train everyday if needed. i do not want to be good to compete or anything like that. I want to be good for myself only. Is it realistic? i am very flexible if that is relevant.
