Ellie Cornwell
About
I am a former competitive figure skater from Texas competing all the way through the senior level. I traveled all over the country for competitions and had the ability to train under national and international Olympians. In addition to being PSA and US Figure Skating certified, I am a Senior Gold Medalist in both freestyle and moves in the field. My teaching style is very hands-on and visual. However, I adapt my teaching style based on my students' learning styles! My ultimate goal in teaching skating is to share my love and passion for the sport with anyone who wants to learn.
