Meet Our Coaches

Below you will find listed alphabetically the very talented coaches that call Woodbury Figure Skating Club their "Home" Club. 

We are so lucky to have them! They all work together to advance the club through participating in skating clinics & camps, hosting off-ice enrichment opportunities, bringing in guest specialty coaches, as well as offering private lessons to our membership. 

Their dedication to advancing the sport of figure skating and our club membership is truly inspiring!

Hiring a Private Coach - Additional Resources

There are many reasons why your family might want to hire a private coach: to excel at a faster pace than in group lessons, to supplement your group lessons with an occasional private one, to get assistance on a difficult skill or to begin competing more seriously. Whatever the reason, these links can be helpful as you begin your search.

Even if your child only skates a few days a week, your skater’s coach will have a significant influence on his or her life. Therefore, it is important that you and your child are comfortable with the person you choose. Take as much time and talk to as many people as necessary until you are satisfied that you are making a good choice.
