Joel Is a Double Gold Medalist! Passed Senior Solo Free Dance and Pre-Gold Dance Test! 7-15-18

Today 7/15/18 my son Joel became a US Figure Skating Double Gold Medalist and also passed his Pre Gold Dance Dance Test! He worked so hard at his skating during his break from Disney On Ice and passed his Senior Solo Free Dance and Paso Doble today.

He leaves this Wednesday 7/18/18 for Florida to begin rehearsals for his 5th season touring with Disney On Ice and will be part of Feld Entertainment’s newest Disney On Ice show: Mickey’s Search Party!

I am such a proud mom!

A Wonderful Review of My Book "My Skating Life" - WOW!

Years ago I wrote a review about a deaf and blind figure skater, and today, that person surprised me with a wonderful "thank you!"  She read my entire book and has written the most thorough and amazing review ever!

Below is the article I wrote about 10 years ago about Lisa Ferris who skates even though she is legally blind and deaf and below that is a link to the most wonderful review ever of my book!
