Thank you, Julia, for these artistic moves that even relative beginning skaters can practice! I know you've done the Waltz 8 video, and I would love to see you do more of the basic figures, like the Figure 8s, Serpentines, etc. I find the control that comes with doing figures to be very helpful, but I struggle with which arm in front, when to turn my head, and how to do the initial push.

Could you do a fixing forward crossovers video?

I learn so much from you! Thank you always for this content.

I recently just went from a size 6.5 Ridell emeralds to a side 4 edea chorus. I'm struggling sm to break in my skates and I'm having to relearn basically all my skills so this definitely will help.

You did it very nicely!

Wow. God gave you talent for skating. I love skating also.

Lovely teaching!

What are signs that a coach isnt good for u? My boyfriend has a Russian coach who was on the National Team a few years ago. He has been coaching him for the past couple of months but from time to time, he would be a no show at their free style sessions and would alert him after the fact. To me, its a sign that he might not be the best fit as this is becoming increasingly frequent. He is also quite younger than us. I believe he is 21. What should we do?

Thank you so much!

Omg hi do you remember me im milana you were testing me on Saturday with coach Sarah ❤

You use this same skill on inline skates when going over rough terrain, like grass or dirt.

isnt that a phase of needle?? ☹️☹️

Thank you so much! I have been wanting to work on my hockey glides since you mentioned them in the two-foot spin video. This is great timing!

Great timing! I just watched another of your videos where this was mentioned and was hoping for a more detailed breakdown, thank you!

What a wonderful teacher!!

your videos really help, thank you❤️

I have found the information about pointing the standing foot towards the opposite shoulder 4:35 helpful, when practicing off-ice for spirals and the Biellmann, as a beginner. ⛸️🙏

Thank you for the tutorial. Definitely going to try it in the coming days. As for today…I had a competition and it was nothing short of a disastrous nightmare. The competition venue was away from home, and the ice there had a completely different feel. Plus my blades were worn out dull and my knees were swollen and stiff from way too much practice lately. I know what you’re thinking: Excuses… Anyways, I must’ve looked like a first time skater while just skating towards my starting point. Once the music started playing, I literally failed every single element. Even the waltz jump. I was so embarrassed that I just ran off the ice (no curtsy or bow) as soon as the music stopped. I’d say today was my absolute low. Felt so sorry to my coach, but what else can I do other than get myself back together and learn whatever this day gives.

This is great! Julia. I will practice today!!

Awesome video ! Would love to see a video on forward and backward power circles if you were interested ? Thank you so much for your hard work 💕

Great tutorial ❤ thank you very much, Julia!

I'm prone to injury these days, but you've given me skills I'm adding to my imaginary program. ❤❤❤

Thank you very much! This really helps. 😊 Could you maybe do a tutorial on the cantilever?

This is happening to me in July I’m a almost a gold medalist after just 1 yr of skating and I’m scared I won’t be able to skate again 😢😢

It’s easy to say “don’t touch the ice or your skates when you fall”, but I’d definitely do that.

Very graceful on the ice.

Why do they call it a mohawk?

Just checking in on your channel. Wanted to let you know that I had a real blast at today’s lesson and was thinking of your channel and contents. First, I brought my DIY stoned outfit for this weekend comp and coach was amazed at the work quality. It was my third stoning work with the only reference material being your videos. So a big thank you here. As for the design, it has a “steampunk” theme with strings around the arms which I used my worn out edea color laces. Kind of like saying I’m bringing all my ice time to the comp. (Then why is it that I still suck at spins…that’s another story) After an hour of practicing my program, we did axels. It’s been about a year since we first started working on axels. I am glad to say that I am finally at a stage where I can get “under-rotated (coach says I’m about 60 degrees short)” axels with decent consistency. Next step is going for borderline passable rotations (45 degrees short)… But really, skating has been so much fun lately and I’m just happy that I’m doing whatever I happen to be doing on the ice. Been making some skate buddies and sometimes even giving tips (credit goes to Coach Julia) to new skaters who say those tips really work. Also making peace with the speed skaters. Speed skaters and their coaches used to hate me but now we greet each other and one coach even joked today that I should switch over to speed; that with my heart and their expert coaching, that I should be in the olympics pretty soon. Thanks but no thanks. I like the bruises and scratches on my forearms.

4th day elevating and icing my ankle after spraining it last weekend. Do you recommend seeing a podiatrist first or a physical therapist before going back on the ice? Thanks coach, hope you see this comment!

The inside spread eagle seems easier since you don't need 180 degree turnout. But going to the outside requires more than 180 as you've shown here.

I CANNOT stay on my pick. Whenever I try the pivot, I can't push myself around enough and then fall off my pick. Does anyone have a tip? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Can you give us a tutorial on the beautiful forward and backward hockey glides?

Thank you for this. My goal is to finally pass FS3 by next year. This & the change foot spin are my 2 biggest roadblocks to this goal.

With the height he's getting I'm convinced that he has springs in his feet... Great demonstration though...will try it.

Thank you, Julia! That is so helpful! 💙🩵🤍⛸️

Oh if only I could get rid of the fear of falling… 😢 I started in january and after 8 hours I’m still shaking …

I’ve been wearing nothing but Harlicks for 40 years and I wouldn’t consider wearing anything else. Ever. Seeing the fitting room again brought a tear to my eye. It looks exactly the same as the first time I walked in there in 1984. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for this, I know it was a while ago! I have been working all my edges on the circle, but this is a good nudge for me to try again thinking about how it is for the curves on the actual test. I'll definitely hop back over and watch the forward edges, too!

Hi Coach Julia! I have trouble getting onto the rocker, I spin too far on the toepick. I’m still able to spin but I can feel the toepick slowing my spins down and I’m not able to spin more than 7 revs. I’m going to try out all of these exercises when I can and hopefully I can come back to this comment with an update! (June 12, 2024)

Thank you Coach Julia!!

why are backspins so much harder? gahhhh thanks for the video! I've learned a lot from your channel.

Thanks for the amazing axel warmup!

I've been using these for inline too and they're so helpful! Thank you!

what is this

What's the song to this? Btw new subscribe please 📌 pin😊

You are my hero I was just wishing you had a video on these!

COACH-JULIA-so-Beautiful-TOO-Distracting!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Coach Julia, you are amazing. I can't wait to show this tutorial to my little skater! 🥰
