Skating Development Pipeline

Janet believes in developing young skaters the right way—starting with strong basics and growing step by step toward higher-level goals. Skaters begin with Learn to Skate USA, where they build balance, confidence, and foundational skills, then progress into structured programs like Excel and Compete USA competitions that introduce goal-setting and fun competitive experiences. As skaters advance, training becomes more focused on testing, performance, and competition pathways, including the Excel competitive track and ultimately the U.S. Figure Skating National Qualifying Series for those pursuing elite levels. At every stage, Janet emphasizes proper technique, confidence, and a positive experience that supports long-term success in the sport.
