Ice Skater

In February 2006 I started the Skate UK, Learn to Skate courses at Slough Ice Arena. Until then I'd only been on the ice twice, both times during disco nights which were really busy and kind of scary. I'm now (February 2008) working my way through NISA level one, having taken and passed two of the six tests.

I love everything about ice skating, being on the ice makes me feel so alive, it's awesome!

 My coaches are Vikky Wright and Jason Blomfield

Vikky has a website (though it really needs updating Vikky) which you can see here

and you can see Jason in the 1990 World Championships with Anne Hall here

Vikky and Jason are great! They keep me on my toes and help me progress. It's hard work sometimes, but I'm loving every second of it. One day I hope to represent my country in international competitions, so watch this space.

Here are a couple of pics of my early skating days.
