Why did you start skating?

Hey skaters! Curiosity is calling my name. I love asking this question. I will even answer it myself. 💜

My story: When I left school my sophomore year and switched to online, I suddenly found myself without many friends. Honestly i was very lonely. Skating had always been part of my life, but everything changed in 2023 when I discovered rhythm skating. I didn’t expect much from it, but I quickly fell in love- with the movement, the community, and the joy it brought me. Skating became therapeutic, helped me rebuild friendships, and shaped the person I am today. I truly can’t imagine my life without it. Skating fills the void nothing else could.
