A Freestyle Skater's Perspective on Ensemble Skating

"As an artistic inspiration, Moira North and Ice Theatre of New York have been instrumental in developing my skating.  Before I began working with ITNY, I had been a competitive freestyle skater.  Moira brought me an entirely new perspective and appreciation for the field of figure skating.  I came to realize that there is more to skating than triple jumps and fast combination spins; I now value the artistry, creativity, and powerful beauty of edges and body movements that create meaningful choreography.  Ice Theatre has enabled me to grow from a sixteen-year-old apprentice to a full company member with a rich understanding of performance figure skating."
