Ice Skating 141: Jumping! Jumping!

Lil Shauna tried jumping on ice last week and she managed baby jumps. Along the week, we tried practicing jumps off ice when time permits. She needed to learn how to bend her knee when she lands, allowing the hamstrings to take the landing impact instead of her poor knee.

It had been 2 months. While the pain still persist, Lil Shauna said that it was much better than weeks ago. I so missed her jumping.

Her warm up jumps went well and there was little or not pain. She tried jumping on ice during practices and there was almost no pain when she landed right. Yeah!

Finally, after like so long, she is finally jumping during lesson. I feel like crying. Is that the end of the tunnel?

While we had been continuing with lessons for the past 2 months, it had been a long plateau due to the knee pain. I think it will take some more time before she can start improving again. Fighting.

She didnt stay extra time after class but was agreeable to go back today. She even wanted to try to go back for off ice! Be prepared for muscle ache. Hohoho.
