One of my favorite things to do in the entire world, if not my very favorite, is ice dancing. As I may have mentioned in an earlier post, I have been ice dancing since I was 5 years old. The first time I skated, I actually hated it. I couldn't stay up and it was terrible. But, I eventually learned to love it and I started doing it around 6 times a week. Coming up are the Ice Dance National Championships and many of my friends are competing in them. This year the Championships are taking place in Omaha, Nebraska.
Many of my friends have competed over the years in Junior Grand Prix's, National Championships, and even the Junior Olympics. Many are even National Champions and have International medals. The Wheaton Ice Skating Academy that my friends and I skate for, is a Nationally recognized program and has some of the best, if not the best, coaches in the nation. We've been trained since we were young children in a very prestigious program and regime.
I enjoy skating more than anything else, however I've been off on back injury. I hope one day that I will be able to skate again after doing a lot of physical therapy. My back is on the mend and hopefully will get better soon.
