Coach Contact List

Private lessons are not arranged by the Crystal Ice Figure Skating Club.  All of our coaches arrange their own private lessons.  A list of coaches is available on this page.  Choosing a private coach is a personal choice.  The Club recommends that you talk to a number of different coaches.  You are employing them and need to make sure that they are compatible with you and /or your skater. 

 

        

     Discuss:

  • goals
  • what you expect to gain from the lessons
  • what you expect of them
  • what competitions
  • who chooses competitions
  • who selects the music for your routine
  • who choreographs routine
  • questions regarding skate selection
