"Why I like to coach"

I enjoy helping skaters reach their potential while consistently focusing on your “Personal Best”.  By establishing how skating fits into your life and family goals we are able to maintain shared expectations and set realistic goals.  Guiding skaters from Basic 1 through their competitive and/or testing career and one day mentoring them into coaching is very satisfying for me and I enjoy the journey.

In addition to the qualifications listed above, Chris has been the director of Skater’s Advantage, LLC a cooperative effort of professionals to meet the needs of the skating community.  Chris also has 12 years experience as director for skating schools at multiple facilities in Northeastern Ohio.
