2023 SPRING SHOW - Holidays On Ice

Dear SFFSC Families,

It's almost that time of year again! The 2023 annual spring show is just right around the corner!  One of the best parts of skating is the time and memories we spend with our families. Different holidays often bring different activities and family traditions. This year we are excited to celebrate and share traditions together for “Holidays on Ice”. We are excited to have each of you join this fun annual event!

SHOW INFORMATION & DETAILS

All SFFSC home club members are invited to perform either a Feature (short solo that ties directly into a group number) or a Solo (longer solo that represents a specific holiday/tradition or event)

Features = home club member that has passed the USFS Preliminary FreeSkate test and/or ISI Freestyle 4.

Solo = home club member that has passed their ­Juvenile FreeSkate test and/or ISI Freestyle 5 test.

***Every skater registering for a solo or feature must also register for a group number. Group level assignments are listed below.***

Test Deadline: ­ February 20th

Solo Show Assignments: Any athlete performing as a feature or solo will be given a show assignment which will be determined by the show director. The music and cut will be provided to the head coach of each feature/soloist. No personal requests will be accepted.

Senior Solos: All 2023 graduating high school seniors will choose their own senior solo music. Music selections for seniors get priority over all show numbers and must be submitted by February 20th. Please email Riley for confirmation prior to cutting music or working on any choreography.

Show Choreography: All features and soloists (small groups-duets or trios included) will be expected to hire a coach for choreography and music editing.  On average, it should take no more than 60 minutes in total to choreograph a show program. Please contact your private lesson coach to work out arrangements for choreography.
