Mom of the Month
Barbara Underhill

Underhill’s advice for parents of would-be champion skaters:

  • Help your kids find something that they’re passionate about, whether it’s skating or something else, and support them.
  • Discuss the right reasons for wanting to skate. Your child should be doing it because they love it, not for possible rewards.
  • Help your child find the right coach. Mutual trust and respect are essential.
  • Reinforce that school is the top priority.
