Lindsay Thompson!

Age: 70

I am Lindsay Thomson and thrilled to say I am 70 years old and STILL SKATING!

I began my skating journey at 46 years old. I chaperoned my son’s church youth group to a trip to the Oxnard Ice Center. I had so much fun, even in those uncomfortable, narrow blue plastic rental skates. As I left, I mentioned to the Skating Director how much fun I had and she invited me to skate during Coffee Club sessions. I’m so glad Sally mentioned the Coffee Club sessions. It was the perfect place for me to learn how to skate.

Well, sadly the Oxnard rink closed several years ago, but gratefully Ice in Paradise opened its doors. I am a regular adult skater at Coffee Club. I take lessons from Coach Frank. Right now we are working on figures and moves-in-field. I’m hoping to start ice dancing again soon.

Young skaters may not be familiar with ‘figures’, but it used to be mandatory curriculum for ‘figure skaters’. I see a HUGE improvement in my skating skills since I started figures. We start off each lesson with figures. I can hardly wait for my next lesson.

I working towards passing Adult Silver Moves, scratch spin, sit spin and passing the next couple of dances before I am 73. Well, that’s just a random number I chose, just so I could have goals to work towards.

Will I chose to compete again?? Who knows, never say ‘never'

Congratulations to our member of the month - Lindsay Thompson
