Got this idea for a thread on another forum - I hope it ok to use it here. The concept is simple, comments on your skating are put into two categories - good or bad. New thread for a new month, to save it getting unwieldy.
Good day:
Sunday is my skating classes day, whoopee. I assist with the level 1 and 2 first, then sit in at level 10. The instructor had us doing basic elements today, outside three turns, step forwards, mohawks and cross rolls. The final objective to link them all together, not easy, and excellent for showing poor posture. Just because I can do a 3 turn, does not mean that I exit it perfectly balanced, ready for another element. I love this stuff.
Bad day:
The public session afterwards was very crowded, no doubt fuelled by the television programme - Dancing on ice. Couldn't even find a small patch of ice at the far end to practice moves. I did manage one spin of 4 turns, but gave up with people passing too close on either side ... I skated until the session ended and came home. There is always tomorrow afternoon ...
