How To Do Power Pulls in Ice Skates! - Figure Skating Tutorial

- Hello Skaters! Today I am going to teach you how to do Power Pulls (also called Edge Pulls). We are going to try them forward and backwards and I will show you how to do it with an easier variation on two feet, or the more difficult variation on one foot. Keep in mind, when on one foot, the free leg really isn't doing the 'pulling'. It does pull a tiny bit, but most of the work should be done with the skating leg.

Ohh, first video from her I see where she cuts to demo of what she’s talking about right after naming the movement. Much easier to follow along
Glad you liked it!
Oh man I think this is one of the things I've wanted to do since starting to skate! If i'm not mistaken, a lot of ice dancers and figure skaters work power pulls into their choreo sequences, and it always looks *so good*--such a natural and intuitive part of dance! And I've spent *months* trying to reason through in my head what they were doing--so good to have a name for it, steps to do it myself, and now the ability to go and learn more about this step on my own! Thank you!!
Wow this tutorial is very timely! I’ve been trying to learn the one foot power pulls for the past couple days. This is really helpful! Thank you 🥰
Glad it was helpful!
Always helping me to get better in my in line skating skills. No matter if there is not giant ice rinks in Chile, depite of that I enjoy practicing on the streets right here.
Thanks a lot 😃
Ahh, now I get it. I am taking group lessons and the instructor generally says “do this”. It seemed that the force was from the knees and ankles. Now I see where the arms and hips come in.
You're a wonderful figure skating teacher. Your video lessons are so useful. This one about Power Pulls is very good! Thank you very much. I'm following all your advices.
I was looking for this, had no idea what it is called - luckily just stumbled over this
I can do them all EXCEPT backwards on my weaker leg. Reviewing this video is helpful to break down where the power comes from. Since my one leg is very weak (slight deformity and injuries), I need technique to be perfect. I cannot "muscle it" through with bad form. Thank you!
Julia. You are the best ever online coach!
Thank you so much!
Yulia, as always, pleases us with her beauty and talent, and the video is just super!
Fantastic video. These are such a valuable resource. Thank you for your thoroughness in explanation and the pace at which you demonstrate things. There is simply no way to get this kind of instruction in a 30 minute learn to skate class with 15 other people.
Thanks for posting these! I'm working on these exact same elements with my coach, and sometimes, it's so nice to see them explained in a slightly different way, which helps make things "click" in my head, and not as scary to do.
You give excellent instructions Julia every time. They are very practical and informative in this case for me special to improve my Powerpull Outside on one foot Thank you very much.
Great exercise for hockey players. Hip movement is very helpful to forward stride and in general edge control is greatly improved.
Yes! This is one of those universal skating moves!
Now I realize my mistake. I've been trying it merely by making slow turns without making any swift torso twists, basically trying to turn without making opposite arm/hip movements. That's why I couldn't do it before. I'll apply what I've observed to my next session.
I skate twice a week, one day for an hour and the other day for 80 minutes.
I always enjoy your tutorials. Very concise and detailed.
I am so glad to know you enjoy my videos and find them helpful!
I was waiting for this one! Thanks!😊😊😊😊
You're welcome 😊
Thanks for sharing! I always see seasoned skaters doing this as part of their warm ups and was wondering what these were called!
You make everything so easy to understand! Thank you
Happy to hear that!
Fantastic! Thank you Julia. I’m going to give this a go next session.
Have fun!
Great explanation and demo. VERY useful!
Glad it was helpful!
Oh my gosh YAY!!!!!!!!! This is incredibly helpful! Thank you SO MUCH!!!!
I wish I could like this video a million times! Thank you so much! 😊
So nice of you
Thank you! This was so helpful!
I'm so glad!
One thing that really helps me is to point my free leg toe in the direction I want to go and make sure you're are shifting your weight from inside to outside edges. I'm not a professional In anyway this just helps me.
great job breaking it down! i have been so focused on the push into the curve that i keep throwing myself off balance, so your tip about pushing AND pulling to get back to the center is extremely helpful. thx!
Glad it was helpful!
Умница. Спасибо за помощь. Обожаю ваши уроки 😄✌️
Coach Julie, thank you for sharing your wonderful Forward and Backward Power Edge Pulls tutorial! -)
You are welcome!
Thanks for the video! Can’t wait to be back on the ice to practice these💪🏻⛸🥰
You got this!
Sooo clean ice 😍😍😍
Good stuff! I tried this today with a coach but because of language issues it was hard for me to understand his instruction. I was amazed how hard it was for me to get back on the outside edge. Your demo and instructions are awesome. Thank you!!!
Glad it helped!
Thank you for the video, very useful.
Glad it was helpful!
Tqsm! Hahahahaha my coach wants me to do this but I’m scared to lean on the edges on one foot!
Trust your edges, they will hold you way better than you think they will. You can do it: believe and achieve!
I feel you. I still have trouble holing a bakwards outside edge. Trying to over come fear of falling. I even have crash pants! Still freaks me out. LoL
love this video!
Glad you liked it!!
I feel like shooting footage from BEHIND would be extremely helpful especially for twist-y moves like the power pull. Watching you talk and explain right and left from the front view gets me all mixed up and confused. Pls consider this Coach 😊
Thank you for this video. I cannot perform forward pulls with confidence (my backward ones are fine) and this video will help.
Yay forward slaloms! So far i found tutorials for all the skills of my first lesson which im stuck at lol
You got this!
That's where I am now. I can do one foot slalom forwards and is time to learn it backwards in order to have, for instance, that nice backwards->forwards inside 3 turn going smoothly.
I roller skate but i find your videos really helpfull too
Very nice!
Thanks!
You explained this far better than any of my Coaches!! 🥰
Oh, thank you so much!
@@CoachJulia I always look up to you and inspire to skate like you! Thank you!
Thanks so much we really needed this
You are so welcome
Btw I tried it today and I was able to do it tysm!
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
That's something I would like to add to my routine 😊
Go for it!
Great videos! Do you have any tips for storing your skates for either travel or just at home?
Yes I do! Check out the video here... czcams.com/video/r0y6eaSUUZI/video.html
Hi! Thank you!! Any body alignment tips?
Oh I saw someone at my rink doing this really fast and kept changing it from forwards and backwards jshshfh
Coach Julia, have you ever uploaded a video about crossrolls? I am looking for it in your channel, but I cannot find it. Thank you so much!
These so much harder than look..... I feel like I'll never learn these.
Today I started 1 foot power pull ^^ was able to do it while holding coach’s hand 😂
Thats a good start!
Love your videos! I’m not really understanding how the two foot power push is different from the slaloms?
It is the same thing, different name.
Thanks
Wow, thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
Hi Julia, bit late to this video. I'm guessing your weight will be a bit further toward your toes on the backward pulls, right?
Bending and pushing. That’s the difference between a propel and a glide right?
Hi Coach Julia.
For your forward 1-foot pull, do you have to pull on each edge - if you follow an imaginary line and switch edges? Outside and inside edges?
Thank you for the video. Always inspiring.
Oh, thanks so much, it means a lot to me that you find my videos inspiring. To your question, yes, you want to try and pull on each edge. You will probably find that one edge is easier than the other, but keep working at it!
@@CoachJulia Coach Julia.
You are sharing your knowledge.
We should be thanking you.
As I do now.
Again, thank you.
So straightening your leg while pulling with the mass of your other leg is the key?
one can recognize the queen from moves on the ice and camera pickup ;)
Awe, thank you so much.
...flirting with the Coach, whoop
@@tomciras6672 It's a school credit that was long due.
@@evgenychirilenko9366 Dito, but I need her to stay focused, I'm learning alot, thanks Friend
Any professional shops and fitters in Toronto Canada? Where I can actually find Jackson Elles? Please help! It would be greatly appreciated!
Could you please tell me what brand and model of your skates are?
My skates are custom Harlick Skating Boots with a Gold Star Revolution Blade by MK
Does anyone know the difference between the forward 2 foot slalom and the power pushes? They kind of look the same to me...
They are the same!
😊💚🌱
Are these 2 foot power pulls the same thing as a forward slalom.
They sure are!
Should I practice those with 2 legs first with the one in the air and then the other or just one?
Try to get the motion down with two legs, then try lifting one in front. You can alternate between two feet and one foot until you can hold it on one foot solely.
@@CoachJulia ☺️
What's the difference between two foot power pulls and two foot slaloms?
Just two different names for the same things. 😀
@@CoachJulia Thanks! But when it comes to one foot, I think there is a difference? When I learnt slaloms my free leg is not allowed to swing to assist the change of edge.
What's the difference between power pulls and curves?
I am not familiar with the term 'curves' in figure skating. They seem like they could be the same thing, but I am not really certain.
Are these the same thing as Slaloms?
Yes, same move, just different name.
All I can think is, "Bend... and snap!"
Can’t practice both sides when everyone goes counter clock wise. All. The. Time.
Thanks
