Friday Coffee Club Moved to Mondays!

The weekly adult drop in coffee club at my home rink moved to Mondays at 10:00 am.

We were a small but fun group.  Everyone just did their own thing during the hour and coach Kim gave us individual mini-lessons based on whatever we were working on.

Video #1 is practice before my lesson


Video #2 is my lesson


Video #3 was practice the next day skating “patch” with figure blades 


Video #5 is the rest of my practicing my Adult Juvenille Free Dance
