Hi Mika!

My goals:

1. Get a back spin.
2. Improve all spins.
3. Learn a loop, flip, lutz, and axel.
4. Get more speed and height on jumps.
5. Improve back 3's.
6. Stop getting scared I'll fall and (as a result) "freezing up" (which usually leads me to stumble anyway) on jumps, spins, and turns.

Happy New Year!!

Off the ice:

~ Buy that beautiful $3000 Taylor Acoustic Guitar with the custom mother of pearl decals on the neck and head of it. LOL maybe thats not as realistic as all the rest of my goals, but a girl can dream! Im thinking that would be a great christmas present for next year (hint hint...)!

Pass at least one Moves test, either the pre-pre or pre-bronze

Overcome my fear of FI three turns

Skate a program to music, no jumps expected (daughter just offered to choreograph for me )

Begin dance (means finding a dance coach)

Develop graceful spirals

Wind up into a one foot turn and manage at least 4 revs

Deepen the edges on B and F cross strokes without losing speed

A wimpy list that'll keep me busy.

1. Stretch until I am insane...and can lift my leg high enough to have a decent spiral.
2. Take a test.
3. Have a program, all for me!
4. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

Good idea to focus on the goals of the year:

2. Back spin -->combination spin fwd-back-fwd -love that ISI FS 3 requirement!
3. Sit spin/back sit and combo someday
4. Camel spin
5. Layback spin
see a theme here??
6. Flip better
7. Loop from cool entries
8. Lutz from footwork maybe??
9. Dead on brackets, choctaws and outside mohawks
10. Tango stop
11. excellent back outside spiral
12. ISI FS 4 footwork
13. Pass Adult Bronze FS and Moves
14. Compete with a program again
15. Pass Bronze and Silver ISI judging tests
16. Choreograph some kicking programs for my two students
17. Survive picking up all of my kids in my tot classes (the back!)

Lose lots and lots of weight

Boy this is a lot--better quit my day job! Well I can dream!

Since my skating buddy Jameybrbr posted, I guess I better be next!!

1. Get solid forward three turns that are "testable."
2. Achieve clean toe loop and salchow that really jump, not just step.
3. Improve footwork and skate an ISI FS 1 Competitive Footwork program this year.
4. Get my ISI FS 1 Freestyle program in shape for competition with more connecting moves.
5. Test and pass Adult Pre-Bronze MITF.
6. POSSIBLY Test and pass Adult Pre-Bronze Freestyle.
7. Get a good, multi-revolution one foot spin.
8. Improve my stroking, crossovers and other basics.
9. HAVE LOTS OF FUN!!!!
10. And as Gary would say, STAY VERTICAL!!!!

Happy New Skating Year, everyone!!!

Beth
