Glad you have started lessons.! i had them at school back in the 70's and loved it but the rink was far to far to go so never went again until a few yrs ago, bought a pair of boots thinking id go more often but as its almost an hrs drive away i was to far. Was also looking at lessons but again distance was to far for a short lesson that was expensive plus the petrol there and back!
However i have found off-ice skates - see the thread and now having lessons. Like most people because i could put ice skates on and move round the rink thought i could skate, but by having lessons you learn what and how you move
I had not had a lesson for 2 weeks due to easter break and didnt realise how much i missed it until last week when i had another lesson.
I agree with you there as itsthe 1 thing ive stuck with for more than a few weeks. tarted oing to gym to get fit - gave that up lol! Skating is much mor fun AND you learn a new skill as well as get fit
