Cass sat for her first figure skating test today. It’s the Basic Level Test (Pre-Alpha).
She had to be at the skating rink by 7.45 a.m. for two hours of lessons from her coach before the test at 10 a.m. Her dad sent her to the skating rink.
Off the skating rink, Cass has been practising and training really hard. She goes to the gym every day, does running, does lots of stretch exercises and off-skating rink exercises. She even takes part in online figure skating classes provided for free by some European figure skaters.
Besides watching figure skating competitions on You Tube, Cass has been reading up and researching quite a bit on this sport. She even eats like a sportswoman.
And the damage for this test? RM225 for a 2-hour pre-test lesson by her coach, RM65 for the test fee and RM200 for a 2-year membership fee at the Ice Skating Institute Asia.
This is only the first test and there will be a few more tests coming up this year! Cass is even gamed to compete but I told her that this year is not for competing yet. As it is, her classes and tests are already very costly and it’s going to cost even more with competitions.
Cass even makes her own energy balls and it’s low in carbs. The ingredients are organic instant oats, some butter, vanilla essence, bananas, peanut butter and nuts.
