Tessa Progress

Congrats to Tessa on passing her Pre-Preliminary Skating Skills test! It would be great if she could have the second test passed by the end of summer!

Tessa did a great job at Braemar Competition~ All of her elements were very correct, and she was definitely the youngest one in Aspire 1. She had great composure during practice ice and during the event. It was great to see how eager she was to get on the ice for her event, and she skated so fast!! She is ready for more content in her program! I am also developing the program so she can use it for the next year to fit her at any other Aspire levels, at Excel Pre-Pre and also at the Championship Pre-Pre level. This character and music fits her so well, and the costume is so perfect, it’ll be great to make this program last for at least a year!

Tessa had really great sit spins this morning! They will help her star spin get better, and it’s important to know a backwards sit spin to help with leg strength for landing the axel (backwards sit is on the right leg, and you land your axel on the right leg).

Tessa did a great job in Aspire class getting her right arm and shoulder to help her spin faster on her axel, and she was even able to do it on her waltz jump-backspin on the ice!

Here elements for her next program are becoming stronger~ she will be a strong Aspire 1 by summer!
