TESTIMONIALS

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING . . .

"Without the courage of vulnerability, improvement in skating is impossible. Learning to balance the elements of performing in front of an audience gracefully, moving them emotionally, knowing that there is always room for critique, and to fall and get back up is the key to success in life."
ZENZILE TONGEFigure Skating in Harlem, Senior

Figure Skating in Detroit is the only organization for girls of color that combines the power of education with access to the artistic discipline of figure skating to build life champions.
