Testing without my coach

Well, its been a while...but I am back!!

But I've been working a lot and skating trying to get my self ready for testing coming up soon.  Since my last test, its been a hard road for me.  I've gotten my sit spin to a decent level and hoping that the judge(s) will appreciate it that.  I've gotten stronger on my jumps the only thing is my back spin its a been a hit and miss for me.  Since, I got new skates and blades my spins are kinda off lately.

Hoping for the best this time around....but to find out last week that my coach will be leaving on vacation and will not be able to coach me 1 week before the test session and the day of testing.  Which means, I will have to hire a coach who will give me lessons the week before testing and be there with me during the test session.  I would put myself on by myself but rules you have to have a coach to make sure and re-skates etc. takes place.

I was considering not testing, but then I would be really pushing it in November because that's the last test session for the year.  I've trained all summer and I feel confident and I focused on what the judge told me needed work on and I did !!  I am curious to what happens this time around, no one knows and I have no control of my performance that day and all I can do is skate my best.  In the mean time I will just practice go with the flow!!

Oh Well, Hoping For The Best and Hope I Pass My Bronze Free Skate!!!
Happy Skating
