Coaches

Dedication. Expertise. Passion.

All coaches are independent of the Idaho Falls Figure Skating Club (IFFSC). Coaches views, contracts, and prices are all independent of those of the IFFSC. The IFFSC requires all coaches on club ice to have current Continuing Education Requirements (CER) certificates, proof of current liability insurance and to be a current member of the Idaho Falls Figure Skating Club. The Idaho Falls Figure Skating Club does not have any head or lead coaches, the club believes that all coaches are equal and does not promote any one coach over another. Please visit the Resources page for links to the United States Figure Skating Association with more information and check out this article on selecting and hiring coaches.
