  • Synchronized Skating in Canada: Historical and Ethnographic Perspectives1
    Synchronized Skating in Canada: Historical and Ethnographic Perspectives1 LESLIE HALL Abstract: Figure skating is an interdisciplinary activity, going beyond athletics and involving choreography, music, creativity, spectacle and interpretation. This ethnographic study focuses on a transnational figure skating genre called synchronized skating, performed mainly by girls and young women on teams consisting of ten to twenty skaters. Drawing on historical and ethno- graphic perspectives, the author examines local and national practices with an emphasis on how synchronized skating embodies musical, social and political synergies. or many people born in Canada, skating is part of childhood. Whether Fdone in a rural or urban setting, outdoors or indoors, skating is often a family activity. The Canadian cities of Ottawa and Winnipeg boast the long- est outdoor skating rinks in the world. In February 2006 the “Great Skate,” a fund-raising event for underprivileged children, took place across Canada in 230 locations, including ponds, rivers and skating rinks. More than sev- enty thousand participants skated to raise money to support children whose families could not afford recreational activities. Canada has achieved inter- national figure skating recognition, producing Kurt Browning, four-time Men’s World Champion, and Olympic Gold medallists Jamie Salé, David Pelletier, Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, among others. Figure skating is interdisciplinary and “falls between the cracks” of scholarly research. It goes beyond athletics because it involves music, chore- ography, creativity, spectacle and interpretation. Some recent ethnographic studies have focussed on the “athletics versus aesthetics” debate that sepa- rates “pure sports” from sports that have a performing arts component (see Grindstaff and West 2006, and Picart 2006).
