the perfect tutorials for skaters that can't get lessons - thank you so much!
Thanks so much for the positive feedback!

@Hayes Westin NO ONE DO THIS ITS SCAM
8:03 girl in the back is an absolute mood lol.
Amazing right?!? 😁
@@CoachJulia definitely!
I was determined to learn some lessons and marched to the rink only to find me.... being a chicken lol
Oh no! you’ve got to try it again and be brave!
For me, I honestly just needed someone to force me out there. Getting out of the comfort zone is hard, I understand 😅
Tell yourself I am going to go around the rink at least once.
How is it now? Any progress?
For any new sport I tried, I'd tell myself to "accept the fact that you WILL fall". Basically getting rid of the fear that you MAY fall, and just basically make yourself fall and practice falling first 😉 once that fear is out of the way, it won't hold you back!
I'm 20 years old and I'm just learning how to skate and now I'm addicted to these videos 😂
Welcome to the sport and to my channel! I am so glad you are enjoying my videos!
39 years old started ice skating again 4 months ago (ice skated twice around 13 years old) roller skated about 100 times as a kid...I'm getting much more comfy on ice with K2 ice skates...my forward crossovers are pretty decent backwards I can crossover in 1 direction the opposite is a total no go...I get my ice skate off the ice now quite a bit on crossovers which I couldn't do at all 3-4 sessions ago
So do I!
I'm 20 and this gives me hope I'm a good skater but I skate like a freaking hockey player and want to be poise and learn new skills. Gonna try try go the rink alone a few times a week for peace of mind and maybe try new things! Thanks for this!
6:22 LMAOOO ARE THEY OK?
XD
Hah! She is fine, just making a dramatic entrance. 😆
LMaO i came because I’m skating tommorrow and it’s been years and I’m just dying lol , thank u
Yesterday I managed to do wiggles for the first time, and I was so happy about it because the previous time that I tried it I was stuck on the same spot and couldn't even get myself moving. Can't thank you enough for your videos coach!
Wonderful! Keep up the good work!
I have the same Problem 😒
You're a great coach. I've recently started ice skating again after 26 years and your videos have really helped improve my form and confidence on the ice. Thank you.x
Actually the girl at 6:17 is the actual mood 😂
She is amazing right?!
Thank you so much for your videos, I'm taking lessons but your videos help me refresh my memory when I'm practising on my own and give me extra exercises to try and improve my technique. You explain things so clearly.
I absolutely fell in love with your videos. You explain everything so clearly and show each technique in different angles. I'm about to turn 30 in a few months and I found out how fun ice skating can be. I used to surf every weekend back home in Puerto Rico, so moving to a cold state where surfing is not pleasant anymore, I was worried I wouldn't find a sport that brought me the same joy. Turns out skating gives me a similar feeling like flying over the water! I've already looked up classes in a nearby rink, and have been watching your videos every day!
Again, thank you so much for your effort and time to make these amazing tutorials for us!
i did learn how to skate classes but could never get backwards wiggles down. your video definitely explained what i was doing wrong and i hope i can get it down the next time i get to be on the ice!
Glad I could help!
Some of the best skating tutorials on youtube. Ive been rewatching this video everytime i go out for a session, im hoping to at least begin doing backwards crossovers before the end of this season.
so helpful and detailed instruction. I would definitely try those new tricks on the ice rink next time😍
Thank you so much! I've only been a casual skater in my life, but now have a rink right by me and have been loving using your videos to progress skills. I appreciate the progression each skills is shown in. Thank you for making me a better/more comfortable skater!
Happy to help!
Thanks coach Julia. Just started group lessons this year. I'm in my 40s. Your teaching is so very helpful 😊.
Thank you so much for the simpler break down!!! Those bounces really clarify for me the mechanics of backward motion!
Happy to help!
I'm 18 and started learning to figure skate towards the end of last year, this video was super helpful as I am stuck in level one and have been worried about how to progress further when I'm struggling with basic lemons but this helped me understand better, thank you!
I’m not sure why this showed up on my timeline. I’ve figured skated for 22 years. But this is great content and I’ll watch even if I don’t need the instruction lol
Took some classes for beginners but the backward skating was always the hardest for me! This is really helpful :)
Hi there, I am a newbie skater as well - skating on and off for a year but only recently started classes- and I have to say, backwards one-foot glides are hell hahaha
I really love your videos! The way you break down every step and remind us of what we need to avoid doing…..so helpful! Thank you coach Julia!❤
Just started lessons and your videos are incredibly helpful! Thanks 😁
Perfect... been looking for off ice skating...but your techniques make more sense. I just wanna perfect backward crossovers... so will focus on my 1 leg ups and lemon strengths so I can gain the confidence... wootwoot.. happy skating
Thank you. Ice skating is super gnar. It's really hard. This video is a real help.
Oh you only posted this two days ago! I love that you make content for us online skaters consistently!! Sending love from the Australian ice rinks xx
Thank you! You too! I hope to visit an Australian rink one day! 😁
Thank you so much for this video!!! I've been struggling with backward wiggles for 5 weeks now!!! My current instructors are college students at a college rink and I'm in a basic one group (mostly small children haha) everything has been very easy for me, but the backward wiggles are my enemy. One of the instructors told me I should slightly lean forward while moving back in forth to do them, and obviously, my toe pick got the best of me. I did actually end up learning how to do backward wiggles.. forward? Although I'm sure it has an actual name, that's what we'll call it for now. Thank you so much for this video!
Im so glad I found your channel!! I started skating back in July at age 32 and haven't fully mastered some of these basic skills yet. Looking forward to getting in some practice and using your tips!! Thank you!!
Hey! Welcome to the ice! I am glad you found me. You will find a lot of info here!
You are a wonderful teacher! Thanks Julia.
Thank you! 😃
I'm so glad I found you! :DDD You are the best coach I found on youtube so far! I'm currently training my forward crossovers, and you have taught me so much! Thank you!!!
Awe, thank you so much for the positive feedback! I am so glad you are enjoying my instruction.
All of your videos are very helpful! Thank you so much
Glad you like them!
THANK YOU!
I've gotten so confidant with recreational skating that I can keep up with those tiny hockey kids that zoom around the ice... but every time I watch a backwards lesson, I'd get totally stuck.
The detail you made about form, and skating on the front curve of your blades? THAT was my issue! Good teachers don't make assumptions that beginners know those implicit/subconscious things.
You're a great teacher! I'm glad I discovered your channel and will be back for more! I'm 52 and always skated since being a kid, but never had any proper lessons (self taught). Every year my husband builds me a backyard skating rink, so I'm going to watch a daily video of yours to help me practice. Yay! Thanks so much lovely lady! ⛸🤍⛸
Your 52?!?!
53 now! @@gcgreatcontent8698
Thanks coach for this helpful work teaching many of us. As a father of two following into my steps, I find your tutorials such a strong tool in guiding me to guide my little ones. Be blessed ❤
You are welcome! I am just glad I can help others develop a love of skating.
First time going backwards today.. I did backward swizzles, I was a little scared at first, but I improved really quickly! Thank you so much for all of these videos.. its a big help.. you're my coach! Greetings from The Netherlands :D
Thank you so much! You are a great teacher! I have wanted to skate so much since a was around 11 years, but never had the opportunity. I am now a pensioner and since watching your video. And ven if I still can't, just watching your videos are beautiful. I can skate with you. Thank you!!.
Awe. Thank you co much for your kind words and for watching!
I roller skate (quad skates), and i watched a lot of videos about backward skating, and i just cant get it; but i tried all the things you teach in this video and it works, thank you so much! ❤
That's awesome!
Ice quad skated backwards for years and ice skated backwards for 40-45 minutes total it's way way harder to learn
Thank you coach Julia! These beginning drills have proven to be very helpful. I've been living in MN for a few years and am now determined to learn how to Ice skate to help me to commune with the great outdoors during Winter. Loved watching you do the backward wiggles (very cute) which might be slightly feminine but proved useful. I hv subscribed and will be watching you on a regular basis. Thanks again!
Awe, that's awesome to hear! I am glad I can help you get around more easily. And thanks for the subscribe.
My 8 year old grand daughter really likes your videos. They are easy to understand and unlike when her lesson is over, she can watch them at any time. Thanks for keeping it simple yet informative for a young skater. You are great at what you do. Keep up the good work. Thank-you.
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate the positive feedback!
Thank you for your lessons, hugely helpful and appreciated
Glad it was helpful!
I was planning going to the rink today since I got brand new edea skates butttt the rinks were full because of corona so I’m kinda sad lol
Awe. That must have been a disappointment. Hopefully you can skate soon.
Julia! I followed 3 other TY videos and it didn't work. Your lesson made sense and it worked. Thanks!
She made it so easy!!!
You are the best explaining everything! Now I want to go try. Thank you.
You can do it!
Thank you so much for your explanation clear🙏🥰
Thank you so much for posting! 🥰 I can’t wait to try these methods for learning backwards skating. I’ve just started skating as of less than a week ago (YIKES!) and I feel like when I do backwards swizzles my skates drag and get stuck and it’s difficult to bring my legs back together…? Weird, but hopefully I’ll figure them out soon! ❤️
Your vids are so helpful! U totally deserve more subscribers than u have
Glad you think so!
Excellent tutorial, thanks Coach Julia!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for making these videos! your instruction is so clear!
I am so glad to hear that!
Thank you very much! Your tutorials are perfect!
Glad you think so!
YOURE AMAZINGGGG coach ! thank you so so so much youre literally saving my life, thank you so much. keep doing this ! this was such a great tut, explanation was perfect
Awe, that is so kind of you to say!
I’m teaching Learn to Skate classes and needed some ideas to help the older beginners who would benefit from more technical explanations. Thanks for the video!
You are welcome! I am glad I could help you out!
ive just started skating but im really good with going forward but its like HELL ON ICE going backwards, at least i have your videos to keep me on the right track and help me get better lol
Thank you for this. I’ve got some raw talent but no coach and I’m older than most people start but I’m picking up on things so quickly.
You got this!
Hard not to fall in love with coach and learn ah she’s so graceful
Today I went ice skating for the first time in nearly 20 years and really, really enjoyed it! I would definitely like to get back into the habit of skating on a semi-regular basis (even though the closest rink is over an hours drive away 😭), and your videos are super helpful!
Thank you so much 😊
You are so welcome!!
super cool its all about the basics ! you are a wonderful detailed teacher , Thank you!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I'm very glad to see this video.
Thank you so much for your detailed lesson ! I will be practicing like mad …thank you thank you 😍👏👏👏👏
You can do it!
I am new to your channel and love your tutorials. I learned to skate years ago and the teacher we had never explained things like this. I haven't been on the ice for a while but would love to go again.
I hope you get to skate again!
I can't get lessons but I will be getting inline figure skates this summer so I think your videos will be helpful
I am getting much more confident skating forwards I'm ready to try backwards I think I'll watch this video just before I go on the ice again .thank you!!
You can do it!!
*Julia: Does the wiggle*
*Also her: proceeds to insert badass music to accompany her wiggles*
you're an awesome coach. thank you
I appreciate that!
Thank you 🙏 Julia, you are 👍 you are great
Thank you! 😃
Great video! Wish I'd watched this a few days ago. Next time at the rink I'll give this a try. Thank you!
You can do it!
I'm trying it this morning
Thanks, very nic step by step showing what, how and when, exactly what i needed 🙂
Glad it was helpful!
thanks julia❤
Thank you so much for your great tutorials. I’m starting to learn figure skating with your voice in my head. That’s really funny 😋🤣
I am so happy to help!
Just found your channel and I’m sure it’ll help me a lot! Thanks for your work cause I can’t afford lessons!
You are welcome!
Another great video!
Thanks again!
I love you! You're a great communicator.. THANK YOU!
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate that!
Thank you for helpful video.
You are welcome!
Wonderful teacher!😊
Thank you! 😃
Those backwards wiggles are awesome. It's like you're dancing on ice 😅😄
And 7:35 looks so funny 🤭😆🤣
Great tutorial, cheers.
I've started yesterday my first ice skating experience, it was awesome! I do inline skating for 2 months now but ice is something else 😃 thank you for valuable lesson i'll try it tomorrow. Keep on your good work 🙏 and i'm 53 yo 😁🛼
Oh yay, Welcome to the ice! I am glad you found my channel, I have just about everything you need to learn here!
Thanks, this video really helped me.
Glad it helped!
Another great video, Julia. Thanks. Could you do some intermediate backward skating drills to practice? The gap between the stuff in this video and backward crossovers feels huge.
Great suggestion!
Very talent lessons.
Great coaching, clear, step by step, easy to progress! If I can give people one advice: record yourself (if possible). Seeing yourself skating the way you see other people is the best way to fix your mistakes! 💪
That is a Great suggestion! I record myself all the time and then I can go back and look at what I am doing and analyze it.
Thanks for this V💖 God bless you Ma'am ❤️❤️❤️
You are so welcome
We are write away to be going to forest hil and we are beginners of skating thankyou julia
This is actually really useful thank you :)
Glad it was helpful!
All kinds of tutorials! Really really?? Really really!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Glad you like them!
You make it look so easy!! I can do backward swizzles, but wiggles are really hard for me 🥺🥺
Still, I’ll keep on practicing! Thanks for the lesson!!
Keep practicing and they will get easier!
I really like this tutorial! gonna try these steps next time I hit the ice. it looks so easy but every time I start moving backwards I feel like I'm going to die 😂😂 my sense of balance in general is ABYSMAL... it took me months just to be able to skate forwards without fearing for my life 😆
Thank you so much for making these videos, Coach Julia! I have started getting into nice skating in the last month and a half, and your videos have been helping me so much! I go to the rink every weekend, watch the pros skate around, and try to copy what they're doing, lol. I just learned crossovers last week (it was mostly a mental block issue!), and decided to try and learn backwards skating this week. Thanks!
Also... I want to buy my own pair of figure skates. Any recommendations? So far Riedell skates look good, but I'm new to this.
Thanks a lot for the lesson.
You are welcome!
Thank you! I just learned the back swizzle, but cannot create a chain yet xD But i am suffering with backward 1/2 swizzle on circle with my non-dominant leg
Hey, thanks for the advice! Im starting my skating lessons next Saturday. Although my feet aren't really straight and when I use my right leg to skate, I almost fall .
Than you Coach Julia! My granddaughter QiQi has completed this lesson and she can't help spinning on the ice right now.
Thank you, I've been trying to keep up in class but my instructors have just been showing me and not telling me technical thing like this that my brain needs
Oh it can be so hard in group class. I am glad that you find my video helpful.
I enjoyed this. I’m 28 about to learn to skate for the first time. Thankyou
You can do it!
I hope this tutorial will help me the next time I'm gonna skate. I've tried some backwards wiggles and swizzles before but I never had any momentum and would just not move at all
such a good coach
Thank you!
Young lady, you are an excellent instructor!
Awe, thanks so much!
Ive spent a total of 6 hours in the ice and as a biginner this is very helpful. Thank you
Glad it helped!
A good one that my coach taught me is to do a backward bubble, and half way lift your foot up and place it back beside your other foot. This creates momentum and it’s really useful!
can you explain the term bubble
@@kourtnie1 yup, its where you make a circle/bubble shape in the ice going backwards/forwards. You bend your knees and turn your feet both about 45 degrees away from eachother, like first position in highland dancing if you know what that is. Then you stand up whilst pushing your knees down, that makes you go forwards/backwards. You then point your feet back together, making a semicirle on each foot which makes a circle together :)
A swizzle?
Its been forever since I skated on actual ice. Ive missed it a lot and have always been looking forward to getting back on ice. I used to go skating with my school during winters back in Norway, but now Im living in southeast asia, and its almost always humid here. Recently just found out about a rink being opened, so if I ever manage to go there, Ill be putting my rusty skills to use!
Oh my gosh, how awesome that there is a new rink opening! I hope you can make it out there!
@@CoachJulia Thank you, I will go when all the things with covid is over
Well done
Thank you!
girl, you are the BOMB and your budda shows it. at 63, I just started ice skating and I love it. at 60, i started inline skating seriously having retired from long distance cycling and kickboxing, and you now my favorite teacher. thank you for your insight and expertise in teaching me this very important movement for skating with SOUL on ICE.
