What is System of Skating?

SOS™ is a comprehensive, structured approach to understanding the fundamentals of figure skating. The SOS™ principles include alignment, counter-balance and core rotation. These principles facilitate the incremental development of skating skills from basic to advanced.

SOS™ is universally applicable to all students, and unlike other corrective coaching feedback, it is not based on what the skater is doing “wrong”, but instead reinforces an understanding of what is “right.”

“Adults are the most passionate and dedicated skaters out there--they challenge me to be a better coach because they are always curious to know why.” -Mimi, Founder

 

Tentative Schedule:

  • Friday 12 pm-6 pm

  • Saturday 2 pm -6 pm (dinner at 7)

  • Sunday 9 am-3 pm

Mimi Wacholder After 30 years of coaching figure skating, Mimi founded SOS™ as a way to give more skaters and coaches access to the tools and techniques she has gathered throughout her career. In 2022 she was honored with the Professional Skater’s Association President’s Excellence Award for her ground-breaking contributions with SOS™.

As a US Team Member and International Competitive Ice Dancer,  she was known for her authenticity as a performer. After retiring from competition, she was a principal performer in the Ice Capades and performed and choreographed with the Ice Theatre of NY. She has a BFA in Creative Communications from Emerson College and is a RYT/Structural Yoga Therapist who works with many Olympic Teams in her hometown of Lake Placid, NY.
