Even a hard competition day is better with therapy dogs. Thank you to the ISU for setting up a “calm zone” in the skaters’ hotel!

Give the February step a try!

This is another very accessible step but you can always challenge yourself to acheive precision, quality and the correct rhythm. Have fun!
