Skate For Joy is pleased to announce the launch of our synchronized skating team for the 2010-2011 season.

US Figure Skating has been supportive since day one and we are honored to be a recipient for the Hauff & Dreeland grant.

Skate For Joy is pleased to announce a new program for the 2010-2011 season. A beginners’ synchronized skating team lead by Nancy Rossi, who holds a Masters rating in synchronized skating. Synchronized skating is a group sport in which skaters perform a program together characterized by team work, speed, intricate formations and challenging step sequences. Our skaters will be challenged to learn the elements of synchronized skating in an atmosphere that is safe, fun and rewarding.

With budget cuts to school and city programs, children are no longer able to access many opportunities important to their growth and development. Skate For Joy offers physical fitness via a sport that is not always accessible. We are confident our skaters can experience the many benefits of team competition by the end of the season. This new venture will teach the importance of winning, losing gracefully, and the overall sportsmanship of working together for one common goal.
