Hi, I’m Ksenia Smetanenko, an Olympian and former international ice dancer with decades of experience competing and performing at the highest levels of the sport. I work with skaters of all ages and abilities. Whether you are a competitive athlete looking to refine your skating skills, edge quality, and speed, a recreational skater hoping to improve your confidence on ice, a beginner wanting to learn proper technique from the very start, or someone just looking for a one-lesson crash course, I can help you feel comfortable, safe, and successful on the ice. My goal is to make every lesson both effective and enjoyable, helping each student improve quickly while developing a lifelong love of skating.
