Have you ever viewed the Winter Olympics when they are having the ice-skating competition and wish you knew how to ice skate like them? Well, maybe not as good as them, but you want to go ice skating without falling on your face.
These easy steps can instruct you on how to ice skate.
• Practice falling safely.
• Everyone sometimes falls when they are first learning, but if you know how to fall the right way without injuring yourself, that is the key.
• If you need to fall, bend your knees and squat into a dip position.
• Learn to stop.
• Stand with your feet together and push your feet apart while skating and stick one skate out sideways.
• Glide around the rink.
• Gliding is a kind of marching on the ice that will assist you in the transition to skating.
• Glide with ease and try to pick up one foot as you glide.
• Then switch to the next foot.
• Keep going.
• Once you are comfortable skating around the rink, try doing swizzles, which leaves behind a perfect figure eight.
