  • Skate Levels

    Skate Levels

    Skate Levels Tot 1 Pre School Beginner Who Has Never Skated Proper Way To Fall In a standing position, stretch hands and arms higher than eye- level so you can see them. (Not so high that the pupil would tent to fall backwards.) Tuck chin to keep head forward. Bend knees and continue the falling down action as you would sit on a chair. Continue gently until skater falls on one cheek (bottom, that is), keeping the hands in position and off the ice. Proper Way to Get Up Facing the instructor, get in the position of a puppy dog on hands and knees. Put one foot between hands, and then bring second foot between hands, keeping weight balanced on center of both feet. Rise, slowly, looking at the instructor, until skater is in proper standing position. Remain still for five seconds. Repeat falling and getting up two more times. Marching in Standing Position With arms in front as in holding handlebars of a bicycle, lift alternate feet three times, remain still in proper position for five seconds. Repeat for a total of three times. Marching While Moving March, counting 1, 2, 3; and then glide on two feet (feet parallel and comfortably apart but no farther out than hips). Repeat five times. Tot 2 Two-Foot Jump In Place While standing still with hands in handlebar position, bend knees, jump up, land, bend knees to almost teapot position, then stand up straight again. Repeat for a total of three times. Forward Swizzle Standing Still Standing in proper position, put heels together forming a wide "V" position, then move toes together until touching.
