Ice dance is dancing on ice! There’s a few different types: Free Dance, Rhythm Dance, Pattern Dance.
These FREE tutorials teach you about one of these: Pattern dance. Pattern dances are closely based on ballroom and Latin dancing.
You can improve your basic skating and make your skating look so much better than ever with dance. Enjoy movement of gliding edges and all the character of each dance as you step in time with the music!
My Story.
I was a Senior level free skater. I had all the jumps, spins and steps and thought I could skate really well! Then I transitioned to ice dance. Something about the movement to music was calling me.
Dancing seemed so much more appealing than the pressure of landing big tricks. I wanted to enjoy my skating, especially in competition.
Little did I know Ice Dance would teach me more about basics and the fine art of ice skating than I’d ever learnt so far! Filling full size ice rinks with ease, watching myself back on video like: “I look good!” and really actually enjoying myself in the process!
Ice dance gave me the ability to enjoy my skating without pressure or risk, just skating and smiling!
I’ve seen in 35 years of skating and over 20 years of coaching this transition. Even after a short while skaters turn to dance and re-discover their love of being on the ice.
That’s why I created something special to help you become an Ice Dancer – with real real training. Let’s get you started with some free teaching!
