Margaret’s Coaching Philosophy - Working together in Unity. Thinking together is Success.

Over 45 years coaching experience. I joined the WRSSSC as a Club Coach.

“I am a coach because of the skaters and the passion I have for the sport and artistic beauty of skating. There is no other feeling quite like helping young athletes further develop their natural persistence, determination, discipline, dedication, resiliency, work ethic, heart, leadership skills, connection with, and respect for others, not only in competition and practice but in ‘LIFE’,

Coaching is a profession of Love. You cannot coach people unless you love them.“

My HOPE : That  I have taught skaters to see the bigger picture of life through their commitment to a sport they love with as much “Passion” as I.
