World Figure Sport provides a variety of opportunities for skaters of all ages and levels to learn and improve, both on-ice and off-ice.
Educational Approach
We teach skaters accurate technique with line and elegance, using the technology of the blades to create clean edges, turns, alignment and core stability. This training develops a well rounded person who can execute awesome Figures & Fancy Skating whether gliding on the ice or making a flying Figure in the air with Fancy Skating. Our development system is designed so any age and level can continuously explore, practice, take exams and compete all while keeping a healthy perspective that combines patience, perseverance, mindfulness, curiosity, and athletic pleasure.
- WFS promotes: the glide, grace, and goodness of skating by inspiring all to learn, take World Figure Sport’s skating exams & compete using skating’s enduring structural foundation of profound patterning. These patterns are found in mathematics, writing, drawing, painting, dancing, and music. Skating’s patterns leave a language on the ice that transcend both culture and time.
- WFS avoids: contortion skating, excessive falling, or an exorbitant amount of lessons for skaters (without space for practice) – we know that redundant overuse is not only detrimental to grace, but leads ultimately to the opposite of function in all aspects of body, mind, family, finances, and sport. Have you lost your love of skating? The pure joy of skating lives here.
