- Hello Skaters! Today we are getting started on learning Choctaws (also known as S-Steps). We are going to begin with the Forward Outside step as this is the one I have found my students can usually grasp first. I hope you find this helpful!

I think it would be nice if you wore two different colored leg warmers or pants. Then its easier to see which leg.
I totally agree
Per usual, I find your tutorials - on just about everything - including the Choctaw - way easier to follow. I love how you always break things down and make it really simple. Thank you! 😊
Thank you so much for the positive feedback!!
I like the look of the closed Choctaw. It looks so elegantly playful.

This is video is literally perfect timing as im learning choctaws for my StSq, could you please do a video next for back outside choctaws? And maybe how we would incorporate choctaws into a StSq
I have back outside already filmed! Coming Soon!
i’d love a run down on ice dance terminology and different styles! like swing, etc.
I find these tutorials pretty easy to follow :D
Also wish me luck, I have a competition today >:D
good luck! and don't forget to have fun!
I hope your competition went well!
@@CoachJulia it did! I had an elements/skills program and music program! I got 1st in the elements/skills program and 2nd on the music program! I’m pretty sure I would’ve gotten first on my music one if I didn’t stumble 🫠
now i can practise these :)
Good luck with your practice!
Where'd you buy your tan skates? I love them.
Hello I've been watching your videos and i think your a really good coach. I noticed that in you video you side you teach. Where do you teach and how much do you charge for group and private lessons?
I coach at Skatetown in Roseville California!
Chocktaws! Definitely gonna try FO chocktaws tomorrow at the rink. One thing…I just can’t seem to understand the logic behind “open” and “closed.” Not just chocktaws, but mohawks as well. Can you explain what exactly is open or closed? I think that might shed light to some key points…
I had the same question a few months ago encountering the closed Mohawk while learning the foxtrot. My ice dance coach said its whether your hips are open or closed at the end.
@@tammygoecks8995 ah, so it’s how the hips are at the end. Makes sense now. Thank you so much 🙏
I actually go over this in my video. Closed Mohawks or Choctaws you step behind your gliding foot. Open Mohawks or Choctaws you step in front of your gliding foot. The end position is based upon whether you step in front (open) or behind (closed).
Hi Tammy! It is actually more based on whether your second foot is placed on the ice in front or behind of the first foot. If you step in front it is open (and this affects the hip position). If you step behind it is closed.
@@CoachJulia thank you for the clarification!
question! at the moment when you’re about to switch feet, are you supposed to/is it ok to switch to an inside edge on the skating foot? when i was working on adult pre bronze skating skills i had such trouble with the swing roll to mohawk in the crossover sequence and got told more than once that i was accidentally doing a chocktaw 😅
Me practicing ice skating with rental skates:
Are edges and rockers even a thing??
Why are you always aione on the ise? Where are the people?
I try to find the quiet sessions to film on, and angle away from anyone on the ice, so that people can practice without being on camera, and so that those watching on TH-cam have a clear image of what I am teaching.
