We have a fantastic team of coaches at SNFSC. All our coaches are British Ice Skating (BIS) licensed, formerly NISA, and are bound by their Code Of Ethics. The coaches provide instructor-led group coaching for the Skate Academy and Member Ice Skills Classes, in addition to private one-to-one and small group lessons during club sessions. Coaches cover all aspects of figure skating, choreography and ice dance, and regularly accompany skaters taking part in competitions around the UK and internationally.
Below you will find short biographies on each of our coaches and their current availability for accepting new pupils. We encourage members to communicate with the coach directly for private lesson arrangements. For Skate Academy & Skills Classes, which are arranged by the club, these do not need to be booked with coaches in advance and anyone can come along at the class time and take part. See our Ice Timetable Calendar for latest class times.
