Could I Go To The.... If I Start Now? *EASY POINTS!?

Question

So ever since I was younger I've wanted to start figure skating, I think I now want to start (I've never been skating before). But my question is, could I ever go to the Olympics or something if I start seriously figure skating at 13 years old?? I've always loved the sport and would really love to start doing it. Please feel free to add anything!!

Thanks!

Answer 1

Anything is possible, you would be starting out kind of late but if it is your dream then hey go for it, you would never know unless you try, and it's nothing wrong with trying trust me, I try to reach some impossible goals all the time(or at least in my mind they are impossible to reach) and the ones that I didn't succeeded at, at least I can say I TRIED! lol

Answer 2

yea you could. i've been skating well i dont remember when i haven't. i started skating before i was walking. just remember to keep warm while ur practicing or else ur muscles tighten up. and make sure you are in squishy clothes so ur not afriad to fall. weeell best of luck.

btw it helps if you get a russian skate teacher they are wicked persice with their footing and will make ur skating flawless

Answer 3

If you work really hard and dedicate yourself completely then I don't see why you couldn't. You would have to have support from your parents and get a really good coach. And most importantly NEVER neglect you school work. Even if you make it to the Olympics or become a professional, things happen. Accidents, injuries, illnesses, things that you can't control, so it is very important to get the best education possible and have a back up career plan. No career based on the physical last forever.

With that said.........Good Luck!

ya

Answer 5

well its possible but you are starting at a late age. most athletes going pro especially to the olympics are starting any sport at about 5. and its possible i have seen major pros start at like 10; 13; and stuff but its pretty hard. good luck with it but just know its really difficult and you must have dedication; desire; discipline; and determination. i call that the 4 D's
