Category : Figure skating
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Now there's a masterfully written guide that shows beginning and recreational skaters the fundamental skills of ice skating.

With Ice Skating: Steps to Success, beginning and recreational skaters will develop a solid foundation of skills to help them gain confidence in their abilities and enjoy the sport more.
