One September afternoon four years ago, my mother made a decision that I will live with for the rest of my life. She had enrolled me into a skate club. There, at this cold indoor rink of a home, I would soon be indulged in this art and sport. Since I was in grade-school, I loved dance, and I also loved gymnastics. The idea of being able to move freely across the ice as the wind rubbed against my skin drove my passion. Skating combines artistic and physical requirements in a way that no other sport does. It has the athleticism of gymnastics and the artistry of dance.
What makes this sport have the ability to make me lose track of all time? Skating is truly breathtaking in the magnitude of the skills one has to grasp, remarkable in the extent of detail it can be pursued, unbelievable in its capacity to free ones self. As soon as I start to glide, the wind pushes against me and it is like Im flying. It is such a unique feeling that I have never felt any other time. The moment I step on the ice, it is like I can feel and hear every beat of my heart. The cold calming breeze that calms my nerves, it allows me to let loose, get caught up in the moment and forget everything off the ice.
Every winter, I sit down on the couch, kick back and watch the Grand Prix of figure skating. I just love watching how the music is interpreted by each skater, I can see the different ways people express themselves on the ice. Each skater has their own way of drawing you into their performance with that special spark. I find it captivating how I am able to have a hold of a skaters character only from a single performance. Skating allows athletes to truly express themselves in any way they want. The moment my blade touches the ice, I am free to be whoever I want; a rockstar, a cowboy, whatever it may be, its possible.
And the possibility of learning something new is astonishing. You gain the ability to set goals for yourselves and work towards them. You gain the ability to achieve them and reset them higher than they were before. Before you even get out there, it teaches you a lot about life. The same way life is like a rollercoaster, skating is too. There will undoubtedly be people who want to see you rise, but there will also be the people who want to see you fall. In skating, although you literally fall, you have to pick yourself up and keep going. You cannot look back, or regret that you fell, all you can do is get up and carry on. You face this problem everyday whether it be in your life or in skating. How you handle these mistakes is how you succeed.
While I am on the ice, I am constantly motivated. It pushes me to the limit, scares me, and motivates all at the same time. There is no perfect in figure skating. I can always spin faster, jump higher, there is always something to work on. I constantly have to learn to make adjustments in order to move forward whether that be the angle of my turn or the take off of my jump. Skating finds a new way to teach something new. Although I make these adjustments, I have learned that I cannot control everything that happens no matter how hard I work. Maybe I step on a loose ice chip on the ice. The only thing I can do is make the most of it.
For more information on figure skating, I usually turn to any one of my coaches. They teach me new skills and show me what skating has to offer. How fascinating is it that this one sport can make your body go wild and make you feel like you could do anything? There is always something to learn with the freedom of being in your own bubble. Youre an artist creating a skating canvas for people to interpret in their own way, its unlike any other. It is a passion I have that I will one day want to share with everyone around me.
