Do you want to be like Michell Kwan?…then read this. First you must put the skates on just like sneakers. Next, enter the rink, but be sure to hold on to the wall just in case you fall. Then push yourself off the wall but not too hard. Then pretend to walk. Once you get the hang of the ice, when you want to stop, point your toes toward each other but keep your ankles straight or you will fall. To leave the ice, you must find an opening, skate over but do not just get off. Hold onto the wall. Next walk a little on the ice but keep one hand on the wall. Carefully step on the mat. To walk on the mat, keep your ankles straight but bend your knees just a little. Then take little steps to the closest bench. Take off your skates…and you've just learned how to ice skate!
