Ooh…only now I realize all the details of this spin. Thanks Julia! Speaking of spins, I am preparing for my first comp in just less than 2 weeks now. My choreo has forward (at the end) and backward (at the beginning) scratches which I barely do from a still position. Yesterday, I finally got a “passable” back scratch in the program which got me a little emotional that I messed up every other element. 😂
Oh my goodness, so relatable honestly. Congratulations on getting the passable back scratch. Hopefully that becomes consistent for you so that your competition goes smoothly.
Greetings from Tokyo, Coach Julia!! 🙂 Thank you very much for your awesome videos!! Looking forward to another life stream! Being able to catch your life stream that Sunday was lots of fun!!
Oh wow, I needed this tutorial so much! Thank you!!!! I always fall forward, and I think its because I'm not getting those hips correct! This will help so much!
Me too!! I get the legs together, but getting low is SO hard. I'm 50 yrs old, so my leg strength isn't what it used to be! 🤣🤣😂😂 I'm about to become a wall sit expert!!!
I wish I had access to ice all year. I'm a bit confused about training on a spinner (I have the jerrys spinner) but I'm slowly improving 😅 Looking forward to learning the Christmas choreo ❤
My sit spin has been a journey. It took me a long time to get it low enough to count. And I'm never as low as I think either. lol Can you cover the variations like broken leg, pancake, flying sit, etc?
I can absolutely cover variations. I've done the pancake, you can find it under the 'spin tutorials' playlist. But I will work on videos for the others!
@@CoachJulia that's right, I remember your pancake spin tutorial now. I'm trying to get the forward sit cannonball position to then pull into a pancake.
Honestly going slow with sit spin and gradually getting lower helps build the correct muscles properly and helps you get up easier. Better to do that than get your spin get called null because you touched down trying to get up. I know skaters like that and their spins aren’t pretty
I can do teapots forwards and backwards, i can do one foot spins but only from a moving lunge, as soon as i try a proper entry i cant hook😢, i can do the crossovers, the windup, the forward outside edge i can hold it i just cant get it to tighten up and hook. Any tips? Im so sure i could do this if i can just figure out the hook 😞 my coach currently makes me do spirals into teapots back up and into lunges because my single leg squat is so strong i would love this exercise ifni could just figure out that damn hook.
Deepen your outside edge at the end of entry. Don't go around your left shoulder, think about nailing it to one point or even dropping it a bit, not much. Just shoulders must be free. And turn at one point, just turn 180 degrees and even more. I was struggling with this hook too but this is what helped me. Now I can do the hook, center my spin and enjoy. You'll get it too. I know how you feel, i felt so helpless too, watching my groupmates spinning and feeling that I will never learn it. But I did and so will you :)
hello! i wanted to ask something, yesterday i went to rink with my mom and skated for 4 hours, after that/today my body feels so sore and hurts so much, why is that?
When I was training as a younger athlete, I took Sunday and Monday off from training. As an older skater I generally skate T/Th/F, and also workout at the gym M/W/F/S with low impact workouts on T/Th.
YAY I've been waiting for this!!! Thank you!!😁
Awesome! I hope you enjoy it!

Oh my gosh this is what I'm working on perfect timing!
Oh that is perfect timing! I hope my tips help.
Perfect timing because I recently started attempting one!!
Congrats on the sponsor! ❤ I’ve been struggling to get low enough and my legs close enough for sit spin lol
Thank you! Yes, those are the two big problems for the sit!

Perfect timing Coach! Thank You!!!
You're so welcome!
Beautiful....thank you!
Sometime, will you please teach us the Cantilever move as well?
The Cantilever is on my list for December!
Thank You for the Video. Greatings from Austria❤
Hello! I am glad you enjoyed the video!
thanks!😁😁😁
Would squats be better than wall sits?
Ha! I must have had a premonition the other day when working on my sit spins! 🤣
lol. Perhaps!
the thing is i can't bend i'm not strong enough .
Random but love your hair band!
Thank you! I got it last fall from J.Crew.
You look like lana del rey
Awe, thank you so much.

I hope to learn the sit spin. 🙏
particularly inspired by @#hanyuyuzuru2624 's sit spin variations

That is a great suggestion!

Just was at the skating gala
Awesome

Probably because you're using muscles you aren't used to
Skating is a lot of exercise, you probably used muscles that usually don't have to work as hard.
I really want to thank you for your excellent video🎉💌🌎📚🙂🍀Kind Regards from México city
Awe, I am glad you liked it!
do you take rest days from skating or find other sports help or inhibit skating?
When I was training as a younger athlete, I took Sunday and Monday off from training. As an older skater I generally skate T/Th/F, and also workout at the gym M/W/F/S with low impact workouts on T/Th.
@@CoachJulia I am in my fifties and it is the only thing that makes me happy lately and not sore.
Uhm I am a level C figure skater but I cant sit properly in sit spin actually I can but not too much like 90°
Getting down to 90 requires both strength and ankle mobility. Very tough.
Okay thanks!
