HOW TO DO A SKATING SPIRAL || OFF-ICE TRAINING | Coach Michelle Hong

your workouts are very good and challenging. i'm a freshman and been skating for years and this series has helped me become more flexible, and after a month of doing one of these everyday (of the series) i find i have more stamina

I can't walk no more 💀 I think its helpful though, lovely video!

My spiral has gotten so much higher ever since I watched this!❤

As an adult skater this beat me up 😂

Any tips on getting my hip more turned out? On the ice I always seem to have my toes pointed slightly down

omg i am currently dying on the floor and it’s only 5 minutes into to the video LOL 😭

Hey do squats help with spirals?

Oh my god how

Thank you for this video. But seriously. I have to train from this video. So I’m really glad you made a mockery of my day.

Wow I wish I had you when I was a teen ! Maybe I wouldn’t have quit ! 💜💜💜

ouch my knees hurt when I was doing the lift and lie down on the ground

This is great! I’m planning to go through like every single stretch because they help so much. I literally did this spiral one once and it surprisingly helped my camel spin a bit but mostly improved my spiral. It’s so effective in so little time, it’s perfect! Keep up the good videos!

Not a skater .. that's as so painful but hey maybe next time I go to a skating rink I'll be able to hold my leg up better

omg, i literally can’t believe how amazing this works. i’ve adding these stretches to my stretching routine for the past 3 days, and my spirals have gone from a 90° angle to around 125°. if you want higher spirals, DO THIS PEOPLE! it works so well!! im honestly in disbelief!!

I hate to do stuff on my knees so I always do those exercises you show at the beginning as downward dog variation with a single leg (if that makes sense) or in a standing arabesque position and I kinda can't tell if it works the same muscle groups as if I would be on the ground kneeling, could anybody tell me if it does? I want it to be as effective as possible but I don't want to risk hurting my knees to try it for like a month or so to see if I would progress faster that way😅

Thanks so much for video!!!

this is a great routine thank you

My D 20 skating for 2 yrs. Level 2-3. Aiming to do splits and practising daily stretching exercises in the garden. After watching this...feel like giving up, as after 12 weeks, can only manage about 5 times each exercise

It's the best spiral stretching video ever! Thanks!

Love this, thank you. I have done this a few times so far, hoping to see some increase in flexibility soon, and of course prettier spiral position. I miss skating so much!!!

Being an adult skater find I am so stiff. This is very challenging thank you.

Love it!!!

Thank you so much for your extensive stretching series. I think I've done this one and the camel spin maybe 3-5 times and I already saw results while roller skating being able to do more movements and do them better. Yeah!! I really didn't expect to see results this quickly! These stretches made my feet burn, just the energy flowing through them, it feels so good!! Thanks again!

Terrific video

Hi!How much time do you have to train to achieve this effect?

Very inspirational video. Can't wait to add this to my routine!
