Learn To Do The Stork Spin in Figure Skates!

Hello Skaters! Today I am going to teach you the Stork Spin! This is a fun step-up from a one foot spin that will challenge you to hold your spin longer, and keep a strong torso throughout. You will want a solid one-foot spin first, here is a tutorial for that...

i can't even skate properly but i'm here watching her do stuff since 2019 because it's so satisfying watch her do what she enjoys and is passionate about with such ease, ahhhh🤍

[@CoachJulia]

Awe, you are so kind.

[@katesmith8005]

Same here. I am a begginer skater at best of times. But I love skating and Julia is the best coach to explain how not to kill oneself while doing cool stuff on ice.

[@dori2513]

@@katesmith8005 omg couldn't agree more ! skating brings me so much fun and joy, it's so beautiful. Miss Julia really is the best coach, explaining and demonstrating wise, she's amazing.

[@amberbante8605]

Never heard of the stork spin, but I learned how to do an attitude spin and a layback spin when I took lessons.

[@CoachJulia]

Those are both very pretty spins!

[@unloyalengene5977]

I just learned this spin lol also could you maybe do a broken leg spin tutorial?

[@CoachJulia]

Great suggestion!

[@starfirebird3099]

One of the coaches where I skate likes to use this spin in group choreography, but I had no idea it has a name!

[@CoachJulia]

Yes! It is an odd name, but it does have one!

[@gs_skates]

It's far beyond my skills 😅 but I will try it anyway 😄

[@CoachJulia]

Go for it!

[@yevan2534]

I will go and try it !😁It Looks Really Gorgeous !

[@CoachJulia]

Hope you like it!

[@michellenguyen6941]

Hi Julia! I was wondering if it's possible to repair my skate if the boot is separating from the sole and blade? :( Thanks!

[@CoachJulia]

I am not really sure. Perhaps you can take it to a shoe repair shop?

[@michellenguyen6941]

@@CoachJulia Thank you I will try that!
