Just Bragging

Okay, I'm just bragging now, but my three kids skated in an ISI competition this weekend in New Jersey. It's a small invitational for a Club that I used to skate at/for years ago.

The girls garnered five gold and two silver medals and everyone had a great time.

The funniest part was when my littlest one completely forgot her program. She just started making things up as she went along! She managed to stay on time for her music and even remembered to do the little hop at the end. (Actually, I'm going to add some of her "ad-libs" to the real program for the next competition.)

The kids and parents were very friendly. Not a single sign of poor sportsmanship did I see!

TOO COOL!!!

Don't you love when a plan (or ad-lib) comes together.



I'm sure your students were excited.

Excellent - and enormous congratulations to your pupil for being able to "ad lib" like that..... it's really hard, and an awful lot of kids in that situation just stand there and howl.....
