Choosing Your Figure Skating
Music
When choosing figure skating music there
are basicallly two things to keep in mind: (1) The music should
fit the skater - age, gender, etc. and (2) it should enable the
skater to properly showcase his/her talents - this is why the
coach should always be involved.
There are many
useful websites to help you choose your music. One of
the most comprehensive figure skating websites is Don
Korte's www.sk8stuff.com . Don devotes a
whole page to

worth reading.
