Learn To Do A Waltz Eight! - Figure Skating Footwork Tutorial

Hello Skaters! Welcome back! Today I am going to teach you how to do a move from the United States Figure Skating Association 'Moves In The Field' tests (soon to be renamed 'Skating Skills' tests). This is the Waltz Eight pattern and is in the first test for both our standard track and adult track of testing. It is a throwback from the original figures days and requires precision and lots of upper body control. I hope you have fun with it! Here are some other footwork tutorials you might like...
