Silver dance lesson ….

Same old same old.

After today’s lesson we are going to work on just the American for a while and get it test ready.  Tackling them 1 dance at a time.  I’m a little disappointed in myself.  I used to get them all done in one session but my progress has slowed immensely and there isn’t enough ice time or practice time.

Hello 2024

 Hi Skating Peeps:

Back from vacation in Hawaii and out of my flip flops and into my skates again.  I really should not be wasting my time and money on lessons without getting any practice in between them.  

I am going to reconsider my ice time in the coming weeks.  I hate to quit taking lessons from either of my coaches but I am literally the only one out there not getting any practice time in.  ðŸ¤¨ 

Lesson today was so unproductive because I was out of sync with skating AND my blades need to be screwed in permanently.  I still am wearing the screws put on when I mounted the blades 1 1/2 years ago.  They finally started slipping.  

I’ll take care of that before I skate again hopefully 🤞 and try and figure out a sensible schedule for practice going forward.
