Amy Brolsma explains how she teaches forward outside three turns. Notice that Amy believes her skaters should fully understand the concept of the three turn, including how the turn starts and stops. She uses a hula hoop to help develop proper awareness of all the parts of the turn.

Add to “My Favorites” (Beta testing)I forgot about using a hula hoop! I got mine out again and my skaters love it. Good job Amy:)
I’ve used a hoola hoop to teach 3 turns and it works like a charm! I really like the explanation of the rocking on the blade and the emphasis on the hips. I’ll be including that in my teaching for sure!
I like the hula hoop idea! This is a very good explanation of the three-turn and technique for teaching it. I can’t wait to try this with my students.
The hula-hoop is great. I see this learning trick in the future of some skaters I know!! Thank you for the great idea.
Great teaching tool!!! I love it. Can’t wait for your next segment.
Excellent video. Thank you so much ! What a terrific idea to use the hula hoop.
Amy is darling…well spoken and in effiecient with her language. Very nice. Welcome Amy!
Great, great, great info Amy!! I am going out to buy a hula hoop today!!! Thank you so much for your contribution to icoachskating. Can’t wait to learn more from you!
Amy, Thank you so much for this video. I am an adult skater making my way through basic skills and moving two-foot turns have plagued me for over six months!! I just could not get them to be smooth or consistent! I watched this video and immediately went and bought a hula hoop. On my first turn with it, I immediately understood that twisting and untwisting of the upper body and hips that has been explained to me countless times, but until today I never truly felt or understood. I can’t thank you enough!!
