Dear, lovely, readers! Hello! Yes FigureSkatingAdvice.com is still being maintained, even though it hasn't been updated in a while. If you are a "Fan" of the FigureSkatingAdvice Facebook page, you'll know that I decided to stop blogging for a little while when my family got some hard news relating to illness this summer. And taking some time off from both this and social media in general has been nourishing, and let me concentrate on the basics over the past few months. It was a good thing. It still is.
