About Christine

Throughout her figure skating career Christine obtained her Gold level Freeskate, Skills and Interpretive tests, won provincial medals at the Sectional and StarSkate level, and competed at the Skate Canada National Challenge. To enhance her figure skating, Christine studied Ballet and completed the Royal Academy of Dance Grade 1-8 exams and Intermediate Vocational exam. She also trained at Level 10 and saw the value that the training brought to her competitive sport. This inspired Christine to obtain her Kinesiology degree and complete her fieldwork at Level 10, all while coaching figure skating at Skate Regina. Coaching and working at Level 10 has provided her with the knowledge on how to break down and correct movement patterns and motivate her clients.

About Preston
Preston currently resides in Lumsden, but has lived in a couple small towns while growing up. There, he played every sport that could fit his schedule including, volleyball, basketball, football, soccer, lacrosse, baseball, ultimate frisbee, and track and field. While in Lumsden he was successful at the provincial level, earning a bronze and two gold medals in basketball and football. He had several tryouts for junior football as well as CIS, however another concussion on an already long list of injuries kept him out of contact sports. This, as well as his history in the weight room, helped guide him to a Kinesiology degree, as he wants to help athletes play at their best level but more importantly being able to do that injury-free. He has been an athletic trainer with the U of R Rams for the last couple years and is starting to work with the track team now as well. His involvement in ultimate helped get the U of R Cougars teams a solid foundation in the school. His passion for helping people is with him everywhere he goes, and he enjoys giving people the tools they need to live a better, healthier life.
