Off Ice Practice!
November 2026
*Make sure to get a yellow sheet from Melissa to help keep track of how things are going for you.
*Make sure to ask Melissa questions if you need help with something. DO NOT practice something wrong!
*Feel Free to do Things in Parts throughout the Week. Aim to do the exercises 3 or more times per week!
Journal Activity
Put some blank paper in your skating binders.
After each time you skate, write down 2 things you did well and 1 thing you want to do better the next time you skate!
Share with Melissa your journal entries!
Music Activity
Find a song that you think could be a good skating program for you someday.
Interpret to it on the floor. Focus on adding in arms, hands and head movements. Be as creative as you’d like.
Let Melissa know what your song is. We will interpret to it on the ice so you can put lower body movements into your interpretation. Then we will work to add lower and upper body movements into the song!
