Ice Skating class was good last night. It's only me and this one other person in the alpha level. The instructor is already teaching us beta skills now. The main alpha skills are forward stroking, snowplow stops, 1 foot stops on each side, and right and left cross-overs. It feels good to actually feel like I'm learning ahead of the normal pace. Lately, with ice skating because I'm so much newer to it than everyone else, I've felt like I'm really bad. But, this class gave a different perspective.
So, the Beta skills that we were learning were backwards half-swizzle (on each side) in a straight line. And, then backwards half-swizzle (on each side) in a circle. These are pre-cursors to backwards stroking and backwards cross-overs.
