- See how an adult skater warms up for a practice session for jumps. Learn how to progress your advance figure skating jump technique with Coach Ashleigh. We'll start with a 5-minute warm up routine to work on our knee bend, posture, speed & balance. Then, we'll launch into all of our single jumps from a waltz jump to a lutz jump.

Suggestions: on Forward stroking: try keeping your arms steady (pretend you've got weights on them), plus bend your skating leg while pushing off from your free leg, turn that free leg out. You're kicking your free leg back when stroking forwards. Forward Cross Rolls: Bend your knees a little more (literally sink into your boots) and really swing your free leg out. Good speed and positioning on your spins otherwise.
I love Cross Rolls- 😄 forward & backwards-- for warm ups! So good for getting a quality knee bend on your take offs & landings for jumps.
You need to do your cross rolls and really hold your edges more. You only hold your edges for a few seconds, hold them for longer to really feel the edge. Your single jumps are nice and smooth, good speed as well. I'm sure you could do an axel. You know you can do it, just let yourself go through with it. I'm an adult skater and half the problem is the confidence and letting your head know that you can do the jumps. If you've done them before, like me, it's getting your brain to tell you that you can do them. It's very hard, but just try it. Do an axel next time you go. Be positive and do one. You'll surprise yourself 😊😊
As a long time skater & coach I can agree that getting over those mental blocks is one of the hardest things for figure skaters at any level. 80% mindset, 20% physical 👍🏾
Hey Steve, I'm a visual learner. Since you've been doing this for so long could you post a video of what you are talking about? Also, throw in an axel too, that would be great!
@@akcstyle That's half the battle, your brain, but when you let go and land your jumps you feel great.
@@tylerdodge4809 Tbh I've not been on the ice for 23 years but have just bought some trousers specifically to get back on the ice again. I shall indeed get back into it and do some practice. You never know, a video clip may come along too 😉
your jumps are gorgeous! love the flow, your waltz loop is effortless
TY!! Waltz loop if one of my favorite warm-up jumps 😊
The loop looks SO good so does your salchow your edge jumps and just fantastic, they look effortless (although im sure you put tons of work into them)
Thank you so much! 🤗 The Loop jump has always been my favorite & the Salchow was the first single jump I could execute as a kid.
For swizzles, bend your knees and only then move your legs out.
Like… bend them a lot.
Love swizzles for jump warm-ups 🤗 Hopefully this video helps inspire you to keep skating!!
Those hedgehog mittens are so cute!!! Where did you get them from? Thank you!
Beautiful skating! :)
Thank you so much! 🤗 They were a gift from another coach at my rink a few years ago.
@@akcstyle found them online, thanks! :)
Whoa I think this is framingham massachusetts ?thr ceiling wooden arches looks familiar. Your video popped up randomly . From 0:05 - 0:12 forward inside ?
I'm curious what element executing here
Lol, yes! I always love starting my warm-up with forward stroking ⛸️
I also like to rotate both ways. Would have better mastery over it if one of my learn to skate coaches didn't say "not in my class" 🙄🙄🙄. Have had some muscle imbalances too I think from one way jumping.
So true, it's difficult to re-train your brain to jump & spin in both directions after years of going one way. I like to think about it the same way dancers do, training both sides 🤗
