2009-04-01Alise10101010YesHi!Thank you very much for your answer(I'll probably have some more questions later).Actually-your answer really encouraged me to never give up!Now I have more confidence.Thank you!
2009-02-12Sue10101010NoThanks so much Dianne. I really appreciate the advice. I like the idea of adding a private lesson but also continuing with the group lessons. I didn't think she would get serious so soon. Her older sister is a gymnast but didn't get serious about it until she was a lot older than Lucy. Thanks again. Sue

2008-09-18Vicky10101010YesHi! Thanx for your answer, it does seem like one has to gain a life time experience before you can consider a carreer in skating, will check with PSA and will keep skating till my body wants no more.

Expertise

I can answer questions about figure skating, choreography, ISI or USFSA. Also questions about competing (my Olympic experience or your own competition). I`m a National referre for ISI. Recently I also have been appointed a National Technical Specialist for US Figure Skating. But remember I am not your substitute for a coach! They can see what you are doing! To correct or instruct you on manuevers is really not what I want to do.

Publications: Recreational Ice Skater, The Edge

Awards: 1976 Olympic Silver Medalist, 1975 World Champion, 1976 European Champion, 6 time National Champion, US and Canadian Double Gold Medalist, 1999 ISI Great Skate Award, 2002 Woman of the Year
