Skating Lessons

We spent an hour at the rink on Saturday so Hudson could have his very first skating lesson while Maira continued to advance in hers - this is her third time taking lessons and she's doing really well.

Hudson must have fallen down at least a couple dozen times during his 30 minute lesson (along with all the other kids in his class) so by the time it was time to skate off the rink, he was done and decided to crawl instead!


Meanwhile, Maira was learning things like spinning and stopping and skating backwards.  In this clip, there's a path drawn on the ice with marker that they are following around, using different techniques, including backwards skating.  Maira's in the black helmet with a navy snowsuit with dark pink sides:
