Who Are You
Skating For?
Three distinct programs. One coach who adapts to where you are, not where she thinks you should be.

How We Build
Champions.
01 / Assessment & Blueprint
02 / Deliberate Practice
03 / Competition Readiness
Assessment & Blueprint
Every skater starts with a 45-minute on-ice assessment. We film, we analyze, we map the gap between where you are and where the score sheet needs you to be. No assumptions — just data and instinct.
- Video analysis of current jumps and spins
- IJS scoring gap identification
- Physical conditioning baseline
- 12-week roadmap delivered within 48 hours
Deliberate Practice
Sessions aren't about logging ice time — they're about solving one specific problem per session. Every drill has a purpose. Every correction is tracked. The 5 AM sessions are hard because they're supposed to be.
- Targeted 60-minute private sessions
- Weekly semi-private group options
- Off-ice conditioning coordination
- Competition simulation practice
Competition Readiness
When it's time to compete, you're not guessing. Program choreography, music timing, mental rehearsal, warm-up protocols — we've built the routine so the skater can just skate.
- Full program choreography included
- Competition warm-up protocols
- Mental performance preparation
- Score review and next-cycle planning
What They Say
After the Ice.
Maya went from inconsistent Axel attempts to landing a clean triple combination in 14 months. The coaching here is unlike anything we'd experienced. The detail, the patience, the results — it's real.
Rachel Thornton
Parent of Maya T., Competitive Junior
Regional Championships 2026
I hadn't been on the ice since I was 19. The first session felt like remembering a language I'd forgotten. Glide structured it so I wasn't embarrassed or overwhelmed — just progressing.
David Park
Adult Returner, 22-year gap
Adult Sectionals 2025
My coach pushes me exactly to the edge of what I can do — never past it, never below it. The 5 AM sessions are brutal. I love them. My scores improved 11 points in one season.
Priya Kapoor
Juvenile Skater
Sectionals January 2026
Sofia landed her first Axel 8 weeks after starting. We've been to coaches before. None of them had this kind of structural clarity about what the next step actually was.
