So I’ve been skating for a little over 2 years now and where I skate, routines are a big focus for majority of the people that come to the rink. While, yes this is helpful and while I’ve learned a few routines, I’ve noticed that because I skipped a lot of fundamentals, I struggle sometimes teaching other people and with learning new moves. Also, that I shy away from trying different moves because it requires fundamentals that I either don’t have or that I’m not strong in. I’m really going to try to focus on putting myself in a vulnerable position to strengthen my fundamentals so that I can learn some moves that I really want to learn like Heel Flares for example.
