Helen Luu figure skating more with jump, spin, dramatic lift while ice dancing is like ballroom dance on ice with all musicality and music interpretation so there's no jump nor lift the partner above head etc.
I get sick and tired of when people hear figure skating they automatically think of the Olympics. These workouts don't just have to be for Olympic skaters, and before you say I know nothing, I am a figure skater and I have been for 10 years now.
She is an ice dancer so she does not jump or do high level spins if any at all so she probably has an even amount of legs and arms I am a figure skater so I work on the muscles for jump and the flexibility and balence for spins but in general my leg get more of a work out than my arms.
Julia Just because she is an ice dancer doesn’t mean she doesn’t spin. She may not jump but spins are actually a required element in programs for ice dancers, as I am an ice dancer myself. Just wanted to clarify :)
well technically i'm an ice dancer and you do need training similar to jumping since some movement based lifts such as stationary lifts sometimes needs a takeoff as well. now, the isu has changed the ice dance elements and they have included the need for "choreographic jumps" embedded in the lifts so we do jump- just not like freestyle skaters.
Alucardjr69 ah thats true. People shouldn't let fear and worries get in the way of something they want to try and achieve. The result can end up to be phenomenal
I like the fact that the reporter is also a fit woman instead of someone who doesn't understand sport at all. We really get to see the difference in strength of everyday 'athlete' with those in olympics
The one mistake every single outlet out there seems to make - Maia and Alex are ice dancers, not pairs skaters, which is completely different from ice dance, imho. But. Lovely video and that's a wonderful insight into what their workout regime is like outside of skating, of which I'd little idea before this.
I’m sharing this comment because I don’t think people are being clear enough about the whole ice dancing thing. Ice dance routines DO INCLUDE spins and lifts. Also I’ve seen some comments implying that a lot of these workouts aren’t good for regular figure skaters and that ice dancing isn’t as hard because it doesn’t include jumps but these are also completely untrue. The balance workouts are great for skaters of all types and ice dancing is just as hard as any other form of skating, it requires so much trust and coordination. And spins and lifts take a lot effort to get wright. Idk I just feel like people aren’t giving Alex and Maya enough credit just because they’re ice dancers. Maybe I’m just over analyzing but it’s just my opinion 🤷♀️
Here's something for the people who think they know about figure skating there are four categories within figure skating men, women, pair, and ice dance. They are figure skaters stop differentiating ice dancing from figure skating.
Badlulu Saddad Ice dancing is a discipline of figure skating, but it's different from pairs skating. I think that's what most of these people are mad about.
... That awkward moment when the video calls the Shib Sibs "A beloved fixture of the pairs event". Nice try insider, the Shibs are ice dancers, not pair skaters, these two things are extremely different.
Scratch spins are hard to keep center. If you tip other the slightest of bit, you fall out of your axis. It happens to me because I also forget to tighten my core lmao
Actually, i have a story... A story all about how My life got flipped turned upside down And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel air In west Philadelphia born and raised On the playground where I spent most of my days Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool And all shooting some b-ball outside of the school When a couple of guys who were up to no good Started making trouble in my neighborhood I got in one little fight and my mom got scared And said you're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel Ai I begged and pleaded with her the other day But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way She gave me a kissin' and she gave me my ticket I put my Walkman on and said I might as well kick it First class, yo this is bad, Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass Is this what the people of Bel Air livin' like Hm this might be alright! I whistled for a cab and when it came near the License plate said 'Fresh' and had dice in the mirror If anything I could say that this cab was rare But I thought now forget it, yo home to Bel Air I pulled up to a house about seven or eight And I yelled to the cabbie, yo Holmes smell ya later Looked at my kingdom I was finally there To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Air
Though Maia works out so much if you compare her muscles to Tessa or Fabiana herself you will see how buff caucasians are!! I mean the muscles n the strength just come so very easily (relatively)
I honestly train harder then them, because not only do I do figure skating but I do taekwondo, soccer, gymnastics and cheer, and sometimes depends on the season I do swimming, snowboarding and modeling, but I survived 15 years of hell
just to clarify, maia and alex are ice dancers; ice dancing is different from pair figure skating
Tory Xu Ohh I didn't know this! Can you please explain the difference?

Cheshireチャイ Oh I see now! Thank you!
Samantha T. HAHAHAHAHA, it really is helpful 😂😂
Wait but they won bronze with the others in the team event in figure skating

Skater Girl17 ikr I can relate so much to this
How do you make money from that?
Ya but no one ever said these were just for Olympians. In the video they were following a workout routine USED by Olympians. Calm down.
Lauryn Howell I’m going into competitive figure skating so I don’t actually really know but I think it’s sponsorships and stuff
Lauryn Howell there’s sponsors (for competitions), show performers, coaching, etc
lots of jobs you can have as a figure skater
Maia and Alex Shibutani are ice dancers not pairs 🤯
Maia and Alex are ice dancers not pair skaters

Props to the athletes. It already looks hard. The part where She s spinning looks fun but I hope she didn't slip or something and hurt herself D:
Syeda Khatun its all head control, aslong as you dont get dizzy you will be fine
Alucardjr69 ah thats true. People shouldn't let fear and worries get in the way of something they want to try and achieve. The result can end up to be phenomenal
Syeda Khatun hello army

Syeda Khatun i see u everywhere
Like ALL the comments say... “ice dancer.” Also on a side note, Maia is just super adorable no matter what she’s doing
Maia and Alex Shibutani♥♥♥
Maia and Alex are ice dancers, not pairs skaters
All I want in life is for someone to make an accurate video on figure skating and not just use facts they made up.
I like the fact that the reporter is also a fit woman instead of someone who doesn't understand sport at all. We really get to see the difference in strength of everyday 'athlete' with those in olympics

is that like roller skating, inline skating, off road inline skating and cross bladding when they all mean skating/
comments like this on videos like this make me happy
Dang, that's some hard work.
MAIA SHIBUTANI!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVELOVELOVE

We don’t fall while spinning... we just go into an unintentional twizzle 😬
U do if u can’t center it enough like if the circles are huge u will fall (yes I have done it
... That awkward moment when the video calls the Shib Sibs "A beloved fixture of the pairs event". Nice try insider, the Shibs are ice dancers, not pair skaters, these two things are extremely different.

Chipp O this is amazing
Thank u
Do they have specific name to the exercises
This looks like so much fun. I wish my gym as all these machines
They don’t skate pairs...they are ice dancers, and their workouts are different than pairs and single skaters because they don’t jump.
The Gyrotonic machine looks fun l wanna try it
Ahh I love Maia and Alex. #shibsibs
That looks really hard.
Workout = noun
Work out = verb
The video title should be “work out”
EXCUSE YOU. They are Ice Dancers. They compete in Ice Dance. Ice Dance and Pairs are different.
They're Ice dancers
my goodness. maia is such a princess on ice... so elegant!
alex and maia!♥
the shibs

Insider I think you mean buzzfeed

Maia Shibutani is not a figure skater. She is an ice dancer. There is a difference between figure skating and ice dancing.
Ice dance is a discipline of figure skating.
Kelly Yao ... ice dancing is one category of figure skating
As for me the scate is better than futball. Scate is not agressive!
Hello!
This video was way to short
Ice Dance is not pairs 😑
So. This is why brian so damn cool xD
I would die doing one of these
I want it so Imma go get it (skkrt skkrt)
The Shibutani siblings are BTS fans !!! They wanted to give BTS custom beanies when they visited PyeongChang but didnt know how to haha
ok ???? still irrelevant to the video
They're ice dancers not pairs.........
Ice danceeee
Anyone else a figure skater?
ICE DANCE, NOT PAIRS
THEY ARE TWO SEPARATE EVENTS
Though Maia works out so much if you compare her muscles to Tessa or Fabiana herself you will see how buff caucasians are!! I mean the muscles n the strength just come so very easily (relatively)
There turning into buzzfeed
Ice dance. Not pairs

And I bet nobody's heard of you.
