Video Transcript

"Hello my name is Dmitri Olympiev and I teach at Pines Ice Arena in Pembroke, Florida. You can reach us on the web at www.www.pinesicearena.com. Now I will teach you how to do “One Foot Spin”. This way I will bring my arms the same way I did on the two foot spin. Now I’m going to put one foot on the toe pick, this is going to be my pushing foot. I’m going to extend my arms, swing with them, I’m going to push off of the ice and bring my foot up. You can do the same thing with the other foot, keep in mind that your balance needs to be set right on the spinning foot all the time. Now to do my spin on the other foot, I need to keep my arms in the opposite direction, now my right arm is in front and my left arm is in the back. I swing and stop. We’ll be right back. "
