Private Lessons

Miriam Schuman is an experienced coach and dedicated adult skater who fell in love with the ice from her very first glide—at just four years old. With a lifelong passion for skating, she brings a thoughtful, empowering, and expressive approach to coaching skaters of all ages and levels.

Miriam specializes in helping skaters develop a deep understanding of the mechanics of movement on ice: edge control, body alignment, power generation, and balance. These foundational elements are essential for building flow, speed, and precision—and for unlocking the next level of performance. Her instruction benefits both figure skaters and hockey players who are ready to elevate their skills.

Whether you’re striving for greater confidence, technical mastery, or efficiency in motion, Miriam tailors each session to your unique goals. She combines technical expertise with a grounded, supportive presence that helps skaters thrive.

Off the ice, Miriam is also a high-performance coach, supporting adults and young adults in cultivating mindfulness, resilience, and holistic self-care to strengthen both mental health and performance. Interested in advancing your skating? Miriam would love to connect and support your journey.
