- This is an ADVANCED Level instruction on Transitions, formally or otherwise known as Mohawk Turns. We start off standing still and then move into rolling transitions from backward to forward and forward to backward. Then we challenge up by performing inside edge transition to inside edge, and outside edge transition to outside edge. And wrap up with transition hops.

You are a great teacher and thanks for breaking these things down. I am 54 years old and have got back into skating. I practically lived on skates through my childhood, teenage years and well into adulthood. Then life got in the way and I have not skated on quads or blades (both) for over 20 years. Now its like my survival instinct has taken over and I cannot believe I used to go down long steep hills both forward and backward and do all the various slides, stops and weave through traffic on my rollerblades. Skate parks and rinks are very rare, nothing like the 70's and 80's used to be.
On a side note....
In this day in age... I guess it's better that you make the change in "syntax" for the names of these skate moves otherwise you will have a loud, small group of people canceling you or calling you racist or homophobe or whatever else because people are so easily offended.
Strangely enough, I am native and those terms are not offensive to me. I am not Mohawk or Choctaw those are the names of tribes/nations, not dance moves as you may have been told on Instagram or wherever. I am not a mouthpiece of natives in particular but things have gotten a little carried away by a few overly sensitive types. There is a difference between being called a slur and a name of a skate maneuver which should present no offense.
Keep up the great work. I wish you continued success.
Thanks so much Jay for the feedback and connect! There’s a point I stopped throwing myself into the air and rotating 2-3 turns and landing on one foot 😆 spins have always been my strong point.
There was an article or book that came out which gave the history of the names of ice skating maneuvers. It had to do with native people being brought to the UK to perform for the royals. The ice skaters began using the names for the dances (so the reference said) for their ice skating moves since they looked similar. You could say that is cultural appropriation. As long, perhaps, as the credit goes to where the names are taken from and with respect it could be ok. You could say we live in a hyper sensitive society, but out of respect for the Native American tribes probably best to change the names. The ice organizations already had. I did get backlash a few times trying to post videos on this topic so trying to be respectful and neutral 🙏🏼
OMG you are the first person who has mentioned that it is difficult to stay or even get to a position in which your feet are in a straight line when you’re heel to heel. I’ve been trying to figure out how to get past that because my hips are apparently VERY tight. I’ve started stretching but this gives me hope. Thank you!
Very respectful and gracious of you to keep the syntax of a word in mind with keeping the context the same. Shows your character and nobility as a person. Sad to see Northridge Skateland closing down!
It’s very sad, I appreciate your sentiments. Thank you for your message- means a lot 🙏🏻
@@appelusa Of course....
I have been searching for videos that are straight to the point without any extra, extra commentary, as it is very frustrating to have to watch 30min long videos for tutorials and most of it is extra and irrelevant. I love your videos they're perfect for tutorials and are straight to the point and super informative, also very well spoken and understandable. So thank you so much, I love this style of coaching!
Oh that’s awesome to hear! Many thanks for the feedback 🙏🏻
VERY GOOD. I'VE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THIS
ive been skating since july and I CANNNNNOT do transitions, your video is really helpful though! i will try tomorrow again lol
Hi Marvelisa! Transitions are a very advanced skill. Don't be too hard on yourself! Keep me posted on your progress! Sometimes an extra set of eyes on your alignment and what you are doing that may be hindering you from completing the transition may be helpful. I do offer one on one zoom lessons if you are interested. You can find me on IG @appelusa
My sentiments exactly. But i wiil keep trying!
you do great tutorials, for example your first video i saw was a tutorial on both foot spin, and i found out more than the others, you're great
Thanks so much 🤩
Thank you for going through each movement.
Things have to be broken down right? In the end you have to forget everything and just do :) Sometimes too much analytical thinking can be mental overload.
Thank you. You are so lovely and graceful to watch 😊 Great lesson.
Thank you so much for the feedback Moonkat! I will be uploading new videos every week! Subscribe if you haven't already :) (I did get married last week and traveled so I am a bit behind but keep at it! Connect with me on IG!
Thank you very much Appelusa. This is so helpful🥰
Awesome 😊
glad i found you😃😃😃 such a great tutorial thank you so much
You got it!!! 🙏🏻😊
hello thanks again I appreciate knowing how when and why to apply the moves you've demonstrated in this tutorial ...be well..peace
Sweeeeet 😊
thanks for the video. Love it :)
완전 실력자입니다
부러워요
Wow. Your a good teacher.
Many thanks Miss Glenda! 🤍
You are excelleeeeent!!!! Thank you for breaking down these advanced moves so so well. Thanks to you I have improved so so much. I honestly thought I would never spin, do backwards crosses, transition on edges, do front crosses / back crosses, and more... I am practicing, following your tips, and getting there...
Well I can’t express my gratitude enough either for you and others like you who engage with me so I know you are actually watching and progressing! Keeps me going! Especially mow that my home rink is gone so teaching was more virtual for so long!
I’m so begging of roller skates I learn so much from you thanks so much 🥰🥰🥰
😄
I can skate already however I like to sit and watch your videos while it’s raining outside and it gets me excited for the next time I can skate 😅
Is there popcorn?! This makes me happy 😊🍕😆🛼
Vero vero good thank you
Awesome thanks for watching!
Thank you for this lesson. The way you teach really helps me in my journey.
Aw that’s great to hear:) it’s you guys who keep me going 🙏🏻
Your feedback is much appreciated ! 🙏🏻
Ah yes, Instagram- the official mouthpiece of 'The native American community' 😂
Exactly, some woke troll … no Native American people would waste breath complaining about this
I'm comfortable skating on my edges with both skates on the ground, but need to work on one footed edges, especially outside edge. These tutorials are great. I think they will help me gain the confidence and skill to get there! Thanks for posting. And it's amazing how effortless you make it seem. Thanks for this tutorial!
Awesome thanks so much Erwin! 😊
Love the T-shirt you’re wearing in this video.where can I get it?
I love you in this vdo is very good make my clear.
Thanks for the video! Very informative
Do you have any tips on getting balance when putting the second foot down? I’m struggling to transfer my weight to it and lift the other foot off the ground
Hi ! Hard to say without seeing your alignment, (I do offer zoom lessons let me know for hats something you’d be interested in appelusa@gmail) but make sure you keep your heels close together, and commit! Hesitancy could be a factor. The weight transfer should happen as soon as you step down on your new foot. And if you are over your new foot with your chest, hips, and a bent knee, with the weight in the center of the new foot, you should be able to get the old foot off the ground.
Thank you for the helpful and informative video! My issue is after I turn (open book position), I am too scared to commit to turning the standing/rolling foot. I will end up sliding or dragging it (into a C - shape) and incomplete the transition turn. Any advice?
Which direction is hardest for you? Front to back or back to front? Most people lean towards the foot they are turning with, thus stepping down too early and creating that "C" shape. Imagine a center line or pole running down the enter of your body from the top of your head to the foot you are standing on. Rotate open book position keeping that pole straight (and pressing outer edge of standing foot slightly to maintain balance) and keep rotating as far as you can head shoulder hips and toe. Then force your body the rest of the way with an oomph. Sat on standing foot, balanced, as long as possible. hope that helps!
Hi Appselusa, I am so embarrassed. I have been struggling with trying to do a three turn and its not that I cannot completely do them but I surely am not confident nor are they smooth. I kept thinking I am missing something and sure enough I realized I am missing a building block. How did I skip over this with the transitions and the two foot turn.?GAH !!!!! Its really important to learn these skating skills in order in my opinion because one builds on the other for not only confidence but leg strength, coordination, your brain understanding all the moves etc. I feel like I could have saved myself much frustration if I had done things in order. Maybe you could do a video that explains the proper ORDER of skating from the edges, transitions, turns and jumps. Or maybe you have and I missed that one too.. Thank you for the videos
Tracy I was reading this thinking, man I gotta ask her to hoot me a testimonial 🤩 🤣 You are right, I did shoot them in order because that’s how I teach privates and group classes, one skill building upon the next. I will definitely take your suggestion and record an explanation of how to watch the series as a suggestion. Thank you for suggesting a be for sharing your experience 🙏🏻😊
@@appelusa HA When did I learn that I did NOT have my edges down? When I was asked to do them in Figures. Gee....... Yep that will humble you and back to this video ! Do you like doing Figures?
Can u do a video of rollerskate artistic routines choreo
Yes for sure. Thumbs up.
Do you have any advice for that noise that my wheels make whenever I transition? I can’t describe it other than a loud scrape?
If you have outdoor wheels they may make noise because of their softer material than indoor wheels. If they are made of a plasticky material then they will because of the friction they are making with the ground. If you are picking up your feet and wheels off the ground at the same time there should not be a sound. Only if you are dragging wheels across the surface would there be a sound. Hope that helps!
@@appelusa ohhh, that makes much more sense! Thank you!
Once upon the time before 1988our cram in Kaohsiung in 3triangle rollers iron metal sandle tied on feet and as walking from fast speed down to stop by whie mothers thumbs closered in also a positive triangke pyramid tip in braken.
Oh fuck off, I can't do 5th position 🤣🤣🤣 I can barely do the first transition without losing my balance WITHOUT skates on....ugh this is going to take years for me to get even remotely good
I hear your struggle! Trust me- I have worked with people who cannot even stand on skates and with persistence and patience , and some once to twice weekly dedication, you can and will get the skills down you desire. It's best to have a coach working with you in a class setting or one on one. Is there a skating facility near you or any coaches teaching outdoors you know of? Maybe I can help find someone in your area for you. Aside, I do teach on zoom and if I can see you I can correct body position and make suggestions. Please don't get discouraged even though I know that's easier said than done. I know I make it look easy but I was born on skates.... I can't walk to save my life :) haha.
