Tried to think what was most outstanding at this training....
I guess - a lot talking with coach (between elements) - she gave me a rest this way.
And another one - bang my right knee (fall down when I was doing cross overs in circle and tried to do it fast, lost concentration and now my knee blue-red colour. Not too bad, but feels a little pain when walking.
I not put ice on it straight (what each adult skater need to do!), just fast get up from ice and continue skating, showing that nothing happened (stupid thing to do!). Who bother about my brave show of? :) Health much more important but we often forget about it.
Anyway it ok. Just not pleasure detail. Training actually was positive enough.
We did cross rolls, cross overs, lie step with double inside 3turn and Mohawk. Czech step,
new step - 3 turn forward outside, change edge, keep free foot in front and do 3turn backwards. Next change foot - 3turn forward inside, change edge, and 3turn backwards without changing foot.
Then spins - upright (I keep doing spin without proper entrance, too fast trying spinning when not get right point). Sit spin - a little better but still not get position, and even move on the foot forward and back (like on swing :). need fix body better.
And at the end - loop jump. Get coach comment about hands work, and did it right with next attempt :)
So not bad training - some positive moments and some sad (like my poor knee - I bang it so many times!)
Interesting that while I became do more elements on training - jumps and spins - I really want more practice fore get better results. Hope soon I could do more practice (not only once per week).
Good luck everybody with your training and achievements!

Thursday training
Today I been totally relax- no any worries, everything in time. Kids at pre-school and child minding.
Funny enough I even not think about training before because too much going on around at this moment. So no time think about ice skatinng (all my thinking at this momemt more about future job- what direction to choose, what the best opportunity, work at weekend or part time during the week, half day all week or full day but just few days per week, move kids to childcare or not.
Too much thinking and every day different ideas.
Really don't know what the best option with kids and ability having hobby- ice skating.
(At this moment I just sending CV and visited some interview. So will see how its goes :)
About training:
Freezing at ice rink. Closer to winter :)
Warm up. Simple steps. At the end I remember steps what I not often doing- Waltz step and loop step. I just love doing Waltz step, its make me feel skating with music at some ball, romantic atmosphere. Loop step been good but need more control and deeper sit.
Actual training-crossrolls forward and back 2 lines each, lie step with 3turn entrance in different directions (legs), new step- cross roll back inside 3 times and then 3turn back inside and continue with another leg cross rolls and 3turn, Czech step (was hard to remember it).
New step combination- in circle- 1 forward cross over, Jackson step, double 3turn back inside and step forward. I did it 5 times and then we plus to it bracket (when at end combination you doing step forward move free leg in front, shoulders look outside the circle and do bracket- change edge and direction).
And...time for spins:)
First upright spin. I did few times but it feels not so good like before. We move to sit spin. Did a lot attempts and only at the end get something close (I at least feel how to do strong move with free hand and leg. Coach other comments was about longer entrance, keep right hand behind, keep body position correct, not move on the sides, free leg stright).
And something new-today first time tried camel spin (before the break I just start learrn it and cant get correct position and spinning). Today it was hard to do too. But at least I tried few times. :) my mistakes was with wrong entrance and wrong hands position. I even was moving backwards but not spinning!
So need hold left hand in front, right back when move to entrance,
When stand in spinning position left hand move behind to the right hand.
At this moment left leg stretching with push, knee- body up. Need feel this moment.
and of course free leg go up like on spiral.
So I need work with entrance and body position.
Its made me excited- we move forward and try something new. But it was not end of the training yet- last surprise - try to do Salhow! First time jump on my training after break (I start training at middle of January, so its 2 month time with once per week training, not bad :) )!
Need to say that's Salhow my less favorite jump (I like to do Flip and Loop jumps, even if they been hard to learn. Have no idea what the situation with this jumps now - after big break). But anyway good start doing jumps :)
My main mistake with salhow - I move free leg too close to another leg, but need go around, keep her freedom. It's hard to do when you few years did wrong. Its always hard change techniques with different coach.
We did just few fast attempts at last minute of training and coach promised next time give me salhow and toe-loop.
Good news and good training. Not perfect but good enough. And surprising how much elements we done for the same 30 min. Maybe my skating speed getting faster or my brains became use to it and think faster, I get steps without too much explanation. Who knows... anyway its positive changes.
Hope next time will be same positive :)
P.S.
I was wright this post from mobile phone (when baby was sleep near) - hard job! never do it again :) Now from computer will try delete mistakes :)

Thursday training
This Thursday was a little bit unusual because of kids.
First thing at the morning - my almost 2 years old broken my Naveman while I was putting his little sister in car seat before move to childcare. Navigation system still working but I cant fix it on the glass so put near my knee on the way.
Another news - after drop my little boy at kindy and driving on motorway I found that my friend send me massage on Facebook at morning with information that she sick and cant look after my baby. Strange but it was not surprising for me, like I expect something gonna happened. That's the life. Anyway I appreciate all those times what she look after baby.
So I during driving tried to think where I can put baby while I on the ice with coach, who can look after her. Delete lesson just 30 min before training for me looks not good because too short notice for coach.
I just remember about Gym above the ice rink and their child minding during fitness classes up to 10 am. This time was exactly when my training finished.
With this great idea I come to gym and ask membership (good bonus - first month free!, and then pay 14 dollars per week with free child minding - much cheaper than move kids in childcare :) and at the same moment have ability visit Gym and go skating few times per week). I droped baby to nice smiling lady and fast went to ice rink. Done! (problem solved :)
Training:
fast warm-up before training with cross rolls, 3-turns, 3step, change of edge forward on each foot and back, waltz step, loop step and then work with coach L with her routine.
There was crossovers forward and back, moving at 8 shape forward, back, 2+2 with Mohawk change forward to back and opposite, and then 1+1 forward-back move by 8shape.
Cross rolls forward and backwards.
Next new step - 3turn back outside, chasse, chasse, Mohawk, 3turn back outside and continue (with different legs. Chasse we doing forward the borders (fence) and 3turn going in half circle along the borders.
I think there was one more step on training, but I really don't remember what it was (maybe something with Jackson step)...
Upright spin - I did it few times. was ok. nothing great but at least something :)
And then hard work with sit spin. At this moment for me hard to do right entrance and sit low.
My mistakes - I try all the time keep left hand in front, but as said my coach need work with left hand as usual in spin, and only at last moment move it infront. And then move straight free leg together to other hand and leg. I move my free leg not straight and I not leave gap between legs and as result cant sit lower.
Its looks like before break I did my sit spin just with power and fixing spin at any position just to do rotation, but now I try to do right technique and its looks really hard, I even cant sit low, or stand proper on toe (find position), and many times lay on the ice - refreshing, but not so good! :)
And I need strong legs for keep me in position.
So welcome to Gym!!! :)
hope now with accidental Gym membership for child minding I will have ability at least one more time per week go to Gym and Ice rink and practice (before I had opportunity go on ice only once per week for training - its almost nothing for having progress), all other days - sit at home with kids :). Hope everything will be fine and baby will be happy there! At least its good opportunity, another question only - how can I use it with kids, housework and busy lifestyle...Will see!
Stay positive-positive-positive :))
