Level 2 coach (in singles and synchro)- National Coaching Accreditation Scheme and member of the Australian Professional Skaters Association.
I grew up competing in all disciplines of figure skating (singles, pairs and synchro) but synchro was always my favourite. It allowed me to share my love of skating with my friends and I loved the thrill of stepping onto the ice to compete together and achieving our goals.
After many years of reaping the rewards of skating at a high level representing Australia in synchro I turned to coaching and decided I wanted to give back to the sport.
My goal is to provide synchronized skating pathways for skaters of all levels and ages in Victoria. I want my teams to be able to experience all that synchro has to offer – fun, friendships, discipline, skill development, teamwork, and so much more.

Michelle Coetzee
-
Level 2 coach certified by the Australia Professional Skaters Association.
My focus is in helping skaters achieve excellent basis skating skills. I have been skating since the age of 9 and have represented Australia as the Team Captain at five World Synchronised Championships. I have also skated for France at International Synchronised events and on televised Christmas specials. I have been coaching ice skating since the age of 14 and have taught in both Australia and France.
My main area of expertise lies with Synchronised / Team skating which requires skaters to have a high level of skill in turns and stroking. I enjoy coaching adult skaters as well as skate school students focusing on excellent basic technique from the start.
