Thanks guys, so helpful! I will listen to all of these.
As for the Bollywood idea - I like it, and originally brought it up to her this fall when we were planning out her season. My student was not sold...she is the kind of kid, I've learned, who will skate infinitely better if she has some input on what she is doing - she does NOT like being handed music and told that she is going to skate to it, so I didn't force the issue...she's very independent and very motivated by choreography and themed music, though, so she would be good at Bollywood too...I just have to find the perfect piece for her to be sold on it.
Yes - Beginner-Int (even at Jr. nats) can have vocals...it isn't that common in my region, as of yet, but I've seen a few skaters that have taken advantage of this rule change. I haven't used any vocal programs, but I'm not opposed to it, if I find the right piece.
I love Oksana's program...it is "The Feeling Begins," also, you may recognize, a famous Michelle Kwan program. Unfortunately, it is also already in use at our rink by another skater
Thanks for the help. I appreciate your ideas so much!
