Coaching Philosophy 

"I love teaching all ages and levels of skating and believe that skating should be fun and a positive experience. I want to teach my students how to work hard and persevere through the ups and downs of skating. Additionally, I hope to prepare them not only to be great skaters, but also to build the skills they need to be successful in other areas of their lives. My focus is on good technique and working hard while making the practices FUN. If I can pass on my love and passion for the sport along the way, then I feel as though I have succeeded." - Karen
