Coaches
The Baltimore Figure Skating Club Coaches
Baltimore FSC coaches offer private lessons during club ice time. They also teach group lessons for skaters in Snowplow Sam through Free Skate 6 in our Skate Academy. All coaches affiliated with BFSC are members of U.S. Figure Skating and the Professional Skaters Association, the official coaches’ certification and training program of USFS. Coaches can be contacted directly about private lessons.
To be approved to teach on Baltimore Figure Skating Club freestyle sessions, coaches must submit their resume for board review and approval and meet all BFSC and U.S. Figure Skating compliance requirements. Please contact Dana Cerniglia for more information.
