Skater Development
Through a schedule of seminars, workshops and programs, the BC Coast Region is actively involved in providing opportunities for skaters to learn and develop a variety of figure skating skills.
We aim to include all skaters from STAR 1 to Gold levels, although our main focus is most often on skaters in the early stages of their development in the sport. In consultation with BCCR coaches, we strive to bring the best and most relevant skating experience to our skaters, both on and off the ice.

Guest Singles Seminars
The Singles Seminar is always evolving, and each year the focus is a little different. Past seminars have focused on understanding and enhancing GOE, performance, technical and skating skills. Guest coaches such as Patrick Chan, Elizabeth Putnam, Elladj Balde and Choreographer Mark Pillay – to name a few - have been invited to provide their expertise to our skaters. Skaters STAR 4 to GOLD and Pre-Juvenile to Pre-Novice are best suited for these seminars.
