Goals and Ambitions

So today, January 11th 2012, marks the day I begin my figure skating journey. I have been ice skating for just over a year now but I feel like I am progressing in a slow rate. Therefore I created this blog to show my improvement, in hope it will help me to progress even faster. I have been following figure skating internationally for the past three years and following the sport gave me another reason to write a skating blog. I am also hoping to get some advice to help this progression increase faster. 
I am currently just beginning the Bronze level and taking private lessons at my rink, which has recently moved. I haven't actually seen the new venue, but, I am very excited to break in my brand spanking new home (with brand spanking new skates), with my skating family on the 21st. Yeah, yeah I know for a skater being off the ice for three weeks isn't good, as I've noticed my fitness has weakened greatly over Christmas (it was all those pies), therefore effecting my performance on the ice. so join me all you beautiful skaters, of all experiences, and we can embark on this challenging yet thrilling ice adventure together.
