Here's mine:

Coaching - $25 for a half hour lesson once a week...but I've been doubling up lately to an hour a week since I decided to take the pre-bronze test this summer.

Ice time - just turned in my ice contract for the spring...$282 total for 12 weeks of 1 and 1/2 hours a week

skates - $571 total for riedell bronze star boots and coronation ace blades w/ the sharpening, mounting, waterproofing thingy...and the other day i just paid $95 total for sharpening and to have the urethane seal thing done on the soles, because doing the lunges have been eating away at my soles here's hoping it'll be awhile till i have to get that done again next time.

$40 - 10 skate public pass to the rink across my house (not my primary rink for lessons though)

$140 - my zuca (gray frame with lilac quilted bag) -- worth every penny, I love it!

$135 - ice show fee

$140 - ballet - once a week for 10 weeks



My husband is very supportive so I am lucky...however we both know we can't have kids yet as we are enjoying our lives the way it is at the moment...i will definitely introduce our kids-to-be to skating and hope that they love it as much as I do (by then mommy might have to quit to accommodate the expense but hope not!)...anyway my husband's "hobby vice" is tennis...he bought the same racket that Rafael Nadal has and also has been taking lessons. He loves it a lot too so who am I to complain....i'd rather we piss away our $ on sports and fitness rather than dropping $50 in the club on weekends...
