Coach Heidi Klopp
I began Figure Skating at age 6 (after a year of Hockey) and never looked back - I was too busy copying and the older skaters on the ice! I competed in Singles, Pairs Ice Dance, and Synchronized Skating in various combinations and at different levels though out the years. My home club was Zurich, but I trained additional hours at the Exeter Skating Club and was a member of the Exeter Synchronized Skating Club. My coaches were; Kathy McLlwain, Marnie Smith, Marcy Walker and Jeff Loosely - all of which had a hand in helping me succeed on and off the ice! A highlight of my time competing was representing Ontario in Regina, Saskatchewan at the Synchronized Skating Nationals. In skating tests I achieved, Sr. Bronze Level Free Skate, and Gold Levels in; Skills, Dance and Interpretive. I completed my bachelors degree at the University of Western Ontario and a post graduate certificate at Centennial College in Workplace Wellness and Health Promotion the following year. In addition to coaching, I work as a Wellness Coordinator on a Seniors outreach Program in Zurich.
