Say,as On Ice Skaters...I was wondering how often everyone here goes to the Rink? I'll start. As a Learn to Skate..I'd say I go either ever 2 weeks. Or at least when I can. Ok people....GO!!!!

I typically go 3 times a week. I would like to be able to go 4 times a week.
I do not stay for extended times though- usually 1 hour of skating.

During the summer I go pretty much every day, sometimes twice. On Tuesdays I skate an early session for myself and then go back in the evening to teach. On Thursdays, I skate/teach on a daytime session, then go back in the evening for synchro. When school starts again, I probably won't be able to do so much.

Currently I am skating about 6 days a week, between an hour and a half and 2.25 hours...

During the academic year it is more like 4/5 days a week for an hour and a half at a time...but that may increase a little if I start skating mornings plus what I currently do...we'll see what happens with my work schedule though....

5-6 times per week, ranging from 50 mins to 2 hours, depending upon the session.

I'm there 6 days/week. Three or four of those days I practice and take lessons. All 6 days, however, I also coach.

Typically, I'm on the ice anywhere from 1 hour to 5 hours (either skating, coaching, or both).

4 times a week- 3 mornings, 1 evening. I'm usually on the ice for around 1 and a half to 2 hours in the mornings and an hour in the evening (it's a short session).

I'm there to skate 4 days a week, and to teach 2 days a week. So I'm at the rink & on the ice 6 days a week.

Not often enough! Once or twice a week is all I'm managing currently, but I'm hoping to do more once the summer is over.

It's hard for me to get anywhere, let alone the rink with a 3 month old, but right now I'm managing once a week. That is for my lesson, and a 30 minute skate afterwards. I'm going to try to up it to twice a week soon, because I have a practice card that I haven't even used once.

I go every day, but don't really practice on the weekends, as I'm teaching then and the sessions are too crowded anyway. I've been practicing about 2 hrs a day on the weekdays, but got busy this week and spent my time teaching instead of practicing both Wed and today, and tomorrow is more of the same. I'm missing the practice, but really need the $, so I can't pass up any opportunities to work.

I try to go 4 times a week, usually anywhere from an hour to 1.5 hr per session, sometimes less than an hour though. It depends on how busy the rest of my life (i.e. work) is... I do want more time though to skate, but I can't afford the time as of late. (Too busy and spending too much $ on training for skating.)

When we have ice, I average about 5 times per week x 1.5 hours each time.

Additionally, I skate two hours at the roller rink on PIC skates each week.

I skate 5 times a week in general, for an hour each time.

Normally 4 days a week for between 45 minutes and 1 hour 30 minutes per session.

Normally 3 days a week for 2 hour sessions, except for this year I am laid off for the month of June :cry: Fortunately I start again on Monday :mrgreen:

I skate 3 mornings a week for about an hour each morning! Used to be more before having kid.

I'm there three to four days a week - except for the one week a month when I work six nights out of seven (!!!). Then it's only one day - two if I can manage to get out of bed in time. I miss out on sleep, but I feel better when I go into work after I've skated.

I'm off the last week of every month, and then I usually go every day if I can stand it!

We just got the new schedule and it looks like I will be going about twice a week this upcoming season. I think that is all I can squeeze in for me.

I will not be teaching this year because I'm back in college (something has to give way). And if things go right, I will need time for my programs (one or two artistic, one freestyle) and test preparation (for pre-bronze moves & freestyle).

I have decided to NOT do the winter show, as they are not doing Nutcracker. I might be a party adult in the stage ballet with the local dance company. We'll see how things go. <sigh> no snowflake for me yet again.....
