- i'm back! since i post a lot on my other platforms i won't be posting every week anymore. I'm not sure if i will do every 2 weeks or every month, but i'm so excited! leaving more time in between filming the videos and uploading them because i'm able to allow myself to be creative instead of forcing myself to :) if you want to see me more often follow my tiktok (@rachellizaa i post every day) and instagram (@rachel.liza)
this video was filmed quite a while ago so that's why i'm talking about daylight savings haha but enjoy :)

I've always wanted to become a figure skater so I'm living vicariously through you now.
itâs never too late! follow ur dreams. âšâ€
â@@quinn814 in proffessional sport it kinda is sadly, esp figure skating
@@scourge5410 if u wanna go to the olympics that is. As long as ur bones and body can physically handle balancing, jumping, and spinning on thin steel blades in a below 0 degree ice rink, I think u should go for it.
I only recently started skating and can't do anything of these things so sameeeeee (maybe one day I will beđ€ but not rn)
same especially bc itâs so expensive if youâre not like a professional with sponsorships and stuff
i started getting into ice skating when I was 10 after going for my friendâs birthday, and since then iâd never gone again.
When I turned 12 I saw a clip of Yuzuru and Yuna and thought, âwow thatâs so cool itâs like dancing and doing gymnastics on the ice!â i still had little knowledge about figure skating but a few years later, and I went ice skating last week with my mum, i knew then and there that Ice skating would be my âoutletâ for when i need to feel free and not stressed from school. Currently Iâm looking into a club so that I can practice my skills and eventually start figure skating :) However the closest rink is around an hour away on public transport so thatâs a bummer.
Watching this video definitely makes me miss the ice again and motivates me to go for it no matter what. Your skill is incredible and I know that you will be a wonderful skater, you are very talented. đ
hii, howd it go?? did you find a rink to learn at?? i wish you all the best! (coming from a figure skater myself)
Seeing a little part of the video of you teaching is so cool!! And its awesome to see you post again bc I LOVE THESE A DAY IN MY LIFE VIDS!!!!
i missed making them :â)
im gay
@@nah9510 happy to hear
I just found your channel and i was shocked to see that you skate at a rink nearby! You are a beautiful skater and it was really fun watching your jump progression and fails because that makes it seem more human, rather than something unachievable. I have been skating on and off for a couple years but never tried figure skating before, i really want to get into it and learn. My main obstacle right now is finding the right rink to practice in and times to practice that arenât only public skate (because those are very crowded at the rink i go to) im not sure how to find good teachers either.. itâs a confusing process and pointers would be very appreciated!
look on the webiste of the rink you are going to to find coaches!! you can also start going to learn to skate classes to get started and make friends
@@RachelLiza how do I make friends at my ice rink? Do you have any suggestions Rachel?
ask if they need help starting their music for their program or compliment something that they were working on
@@RachelLiza thank you so much! I canât believe you replied! Ur an inspiration to me and Iâm an Australian who does ice skating and ice rinks arenât very close so urs grader to skate! I canât wait to be ur age so I can drive myself their multiple times a week! I do group lessons and have my own figure skates, could you please explain on how to hold my edges for a long time. Like right inside edge etc? â€ïžâ€ïžđ€
Iâm also 19yrs old and trying to commence figure skating lifeâš your videoâs so good and youâre amazing! Thanks for your videođ
aaahhhh I literally love your skating vlogs!! thank you for your content xx
I LOVE these kinds of videos! Rachel, you have motivated me to vlog again, greetings from Chile!
I absolutely love your content. I am also a NWP competitive figure skater and just started a YT. You alongside Eye Katie are my inspiration! BTW, I absolutely love that rink.
I love these kinds of videos on your channel so much!!!
thank u
keep going! i love your channel so muchâ„
omg iâm so excited!! iâve been bingeing ur content recently, i wasnât sure if you were going to upload anymore
ahhh iâm so glad u came back :))
I'm so glad you posted again you are one of my inspiration when I started skating I'm on level 3 now! I hope I get good as you in the future.. lots of love from the Philippines
Oh which rink? MOA or SM seaside?
I love these videos theyâre so cute
Omg Im so excited
YAYY
I just got my double axel a year ago, you might find it a little helpful to try to do it on one of the circles around the rink with a little more speed. This is how I ended up landing mine!!! I hope that this might help! Btw I love your content!!!đ
Edit: Btw your flying spins are amazing!!! Iâm really bad at mine đ„Č
This gives me hope for when I compete for skating đœđœ
yaasss to the correct lutz edge đ„°
Omg your so talented I bought figure skates this winter but I donât know how to do any spins or tricks yet I just know how to skate regularly
Okayy but ur voice tho!! It's amazingg
I LOVE how you love kpop and figure skating !!!!!!! âžïž
Hey,Rachel! đ First of all i have to say that i just adore ur videos,they are so comforting for some reason XD
I have a few simple questions:
- How many hours do you exercise?
- How long is your warm up routine?
- How much time do you spend skating at the rink/day?
I would be so happy if you could answer them âĄ
Have a good day,love u!â€ïžâ€ïž
I totally love your captions hahahahhaha. "life flashed before my eyes" lol!
Thanks for sharing, Rachel. I love watching your videos. As a skater myself, would you mind me asking how you set up camera around the rink to film yourself? Do you usually place your phone against the glass? Or you usually use tripod? Iâm intrigued!
THIS VIDEO WAS SO ENTERTAINING,THESE DAY IN MY LIFE VIDEOS R GREAT AND ALSO ILOVE THE ECOUTE CHERIE SONG TOO U SHOULD TRY IT SPED UP!
can you make a video of ur playlist please if u have one cause itâs sooo good
Iâm tryna do figure skating and itâs working! Gonna buy sum skates soon
I wish you and your friend become an amazing skater in future.
Finally you got the falling down part worked out đ ....It just takes practice lol đ . I liked when you were doing the Tinker Bell routine and just spinning around in the air đ đč đ . Good to see you again, I see you more on Insta than yt now ?
Hi Rachel, I'm so happy to see another skating vlog on your channel, these are my favourite. I have a quick question... I started learning to skate a year ago and am loving it so much. When you say you teach.. did you have to do take any specific tests or course to allow you to teach other people?,
iâm a junior coach right now, so i only teach basic skills levels. i donât know if there is a specific rule at your rink but i did not. the skating director knows me and she knows iâve been doing learn to skate for years
Iâm not Rachel but I am also a figure skater and in my experience and from what Iâve heard from other skaters to teach at learn to skate especially at the more basic level u donât need any sort of formal certification. How Iâve seen it work is u usually join a skating club at ur local rink and through that club volunteer as like kinda an assistant?? (Like u help another coach and arenât the main person in charge) in the learn to skates and after u do it for a while(a few years) especially if ur older like 18+ you can start teaching on ur own with a basic class like snowplow Sam. Iâve had friends who assisted from their tween years and went to college nearby and got their own group to teach after graduating high school. Idk if this made sense but yeah hope it was helpful lol
I wish i had that harness back in my day (early 70âs.)
whats kinda fun is i also went to practice today and shopping afterwards, very rare i must say!! usually im DEAD after hours of practice lol btw any tips for getting comfy with jumping from backwards (loop, flip etc) those are the jumps im most hesitant to do lol
lots of practice and slow motion walk throughs of the jumps
the way i sneezed right after she did đđ
iâve just started figure skating at 14 which i hope isnât too old bc itâs genuinely been my dream since forever but iâve never really gotten the opportunity
hi queen what boots & blades do u use :3
Heeeeeeey, havent been here in a while haha, exams have rlly gotten to me lol, hows it goin? đđđ loved da videooooo
brooo wait this is so cool bc ive competed at your rink?? anyway, great video!
omg thatâs so cool
Girl i feel your pain those falls are the worst im a figure skater too my highest jump is double toe also how long have you been skating?
How long would it take me to learn figure skating ? i always wanted to be one but my parents never let me do a sport or anything
HI MAY I ASK YOU IN WHICH RINK DO YOU SKATE? IM TRYING TO FIND A RINK TO SKATE BUT I CANT FIND ANYTHING đ
Iâm taking iceskating lessons and Iâm 10 years old and I really really want to become a professional ice skater thatâs my dream job so seen this video is really encourage me
omg hii!! Iâm a figure skater from wa area and Iâve competed many times at ice fest at your rink!! what a small world haha
omg thatâs so cool!!
pls teach me how to make those french toast sticks
Wow after seeing Airpods pro video and seeing this , damn thats mind blowing. You became more cute and that red hair wowowow
hi i love this vid!!! when did u start skating?
at 4
relatable
I didn't have the motivation to skate again after my father's death. Your videos motivated me I think that I'll practice again it's been two months and I miss my skates đđ
awh, iâm so sorry for your loss :( maybe skating can be a good escape for you and make you happy
18:16 was soooo good
thanks!
Someday I really wanna see this in live...never saw 1 :( I wish I will see you'rs 1day.
OMG UNRELATED BUT I LOVE THE NEW YT BANNER
OMG THANKSSS U NOTICED!!
@@RachelLiza OFC! It def gives off ur Chanel vibes đ«¶đ«¶đ«¶
you have such a pretty laugh
Hi I love your figure skating videos and I was wondering at what age you started figure skating? âșïž
4 years old
07:20 that was satisfyingđ„
Do you have any tips on a one foot 3 turn? Iâm learning them and they are so scary!
bend your knees before and after the turn and make sure you have strong outside edges
I have a question because recently I've been really into figure skating and want to do it. So, do your coaches pick the song you perform, or do you get to? And, who choreographs the dance thing.?
i personally pick my songs but some coaches pick their students songs. i have a choreographer but when youâre at a lower level, your main coach usually choreographs it :)
Is this at OVA?
it's really sad that rinks in hong kong are NOT STANDARDIZED and are PACKED WITH PEOPLE. I always wanted to do wide crossrolls but damn as the middle is cut out for LESSONS, the rest of the track is just like 5m max wide
Do you skate at Kent ice arena
Lol the comment of crying over you jumps last week hit deep lol. I used to have (still sometimes but not often since I don't jump anymore lol) all the time especially with the beautiful jump called axels lol and double loops. I was saved by masks so maybe my coach didn't see but I'm pretty sure he did when he would say go get water lol.
Letâs microwave this shit
Got me dying đâ€
Sorry, this is a stupid question but how do you get yourself to fall? I guess a better way to explain it is I cannot push myself to go fast enough for spins/jumps because Iâm scared to fall! Any tips?
do a few slaloms into a spin!
Thank you!
I'm a figure skater, i don't teach but i understood when she said "i'm so tired" like sammeeeee!! Also y'all so prettyyyyyyy!
I've always wanted to become a figure skater, but I live in Brazil and there are only 5 skating rinks so I don't think is gonna happend đźâđš
I JUST REALIZED YOURE MY ICE SKATING TEACHER I WATCHED SOME OF YOUR VIDEOS BEFORE YOU STARTED TEACHING ME WHAT
WHAT, WHATS UR NAME?
@@RachelLiza MELISA
SHUT UP
@@RachelLiza WHAT
How many hours do you practice a day?
1-2 hours on ice and usually 1 hour together before and after i skate
watching this vid and realized i go to the same rink đđđ
Cutee. Who is your fav figure skater ? đ„°đ„°
karen chen!
im just waiting for the response of a trainer! then i hope i can get trained even tho im sadly already 13. i hope i can learn it tho
nice
Why do you land your axel on left foot.
i dont
Lol I went that rink for a competition
this is my âštherapyâš
as it should đ
May i ask what fs r u?
novice!
@@RachelLiza oh ok bec i dont really know all levels bec i stopped during pandemic and made me forget my fs3 movesđ idk how to spin any more
Have you landed 2A?
not yet!
I THOUGHT YOU WERE 13 AND THEN I SAW YOU DRIVING I WAS SO BAFFLED
Nah i went ice skating as a school trip last tuesday and i kept on falling, my skirt got wet and a girl from the other class fell on the ice so badly her stomach and her butt was on the ice. Like she was TWISTED And they almost called the ambulance, but didnt. Her lungs almost died and she couldve stopped breathing... our lesson was cut short
Wait wait so I'm 16, is that too late to start learning to figure skate?
itâs never too late
Oh my gosh, that would make me so dizzy, but I guess you're pretty used to it by now. :)
First
yea
Do you need to know how to do slips for figures skating ?
You driving the car caught me off guard because i thought you were like 14
I've been wanting to start figure skating for a while now. Everyone seems to start at young ages like under 7 and I'm already 14 and I just want to know what it would be like trying to catch up to those who have been doing it for years and if it's worth it yk. If anyone could be brutally honest with me and tell me if it's a good idea or not please reply!!
im 13 and im starting soon! honestly i have the same concerns as you but i would say just go for it. you don't have to catch up to them right away, just go at your own pace! everyone starts somewhere after all
@@koiifsh Thank you! I've actually started some lessons and it isn't as bad as I thought it would be because there's others that are starting at the same age as me.
Hello friend I like your socks what kind are they thick socks
UR A PIECEEEEEEEEE OMG
Not sure how old you are and how dedicated in competitive..
Donât forget hitting the gym for strength. Lifting is so important for 2A and 3A for girls. Itâs lacking a lot of power
She's 19
You're an amazing skater but your eating habits are woeful! Cinnamon sugar AND maple syrup!!
â@@Bee-wo5of Of course I do. It's you who doesn't think it's okay. And guess what? Care factor zero.. :)
you really inspire me to practice figure skating, i always look forward to your videos so iâm glad you posted again, i really enjoyed the video! keep it up you can definitely get far with yt. đ€đ€
wait, uu a conan fan. gurl i need a conan fan who skates. if only!!!!đ„Čđ„Čđ„Čđ„Čđ„Čđ„Č
