- First, watch the coach teach lessons
- Then inquire with the coach if he/she is accepting new students
- Ask about their coaching philosophy
- Is the coach PSA rated or ranked?
- How do they stay current with the sport & profession of coaching?
- Do you share the same philosophy?
- How will the skater and coach’s personality match?
- Schedule a few try-out lessons with the coach
PLEASE CONTACT the COACH of your choice DIRECTLY TO SCHEDULE A PRIVATE LESSON
