British Figure skater
About Me, 2026
I'm a British Figure Skater enjoying skating since the age of 3. I'm being coached by, Florent and Dmitri Ignatenko at the Amodio Academy, Vaujany in France. I have represented GB internationally since 2022: 3rd at the Golden Skate, Romania, at Advanced novice level; 4th Andorra Open. At the British National Championships 2nd Overall in GB. At the start of 2023 I came 1st in the French, Le Havre competition - and then I came 1st at the British Ice Skating Qualifier.
In 2023 I moved up to Junior level and came 1st at the open Oxford competition; and then 3rd against 27 skaters in the qualifier for the British Championships - where I gained sufficient points to join the GB junior skating development squad. This led to the Budapest Golden Skate coming 8th against 30 international skaters. In November I achieved first place in Valence, France against 21 other skaters. At the end of 2023 at the British National Championships I came 3rd in the Free programme and 4th overall.
My first competition in 2024 was the Robin Hood Trophy where I came first with a new Junior PB of 139 points. An injury to my foot in September meant requirements for Physio and a break from on-ice training. At the British Championships in 2024 I came 4th Overall even although I had not trained as I wanted to. In early 2025 my training improved and I came 7th for GB in Luxembourg and 2nd in the March BIS qualifier. At the end of 25 I was very happy to be 3rd overall in the British National Championships and 2nd in the short programme! Then my skating suffered.
In January 2026 I was warming up at the Kaunas competition when I strained my abductor muscle leading to weeks of physio and no proper training - Such a disappointment but then my March international competition for GB in Luxembourg (came 10th from 26) didn't cause too much pain. Afterwards I was 3rd in the March British Qualifier. April left me sad as my skating boots went missing when left in the changing room. I had to borrow another skater's boots. Using these boots (a half size too small) I was happy in April to come 8th at the Triglav competition from 33 international skaters.
In August I moved up to senior skater level and came 2nd (just .O8 behind 1st place) in my first BIS qualifier senior skate. I represented GB in Tallin, Estonia in September and came 3rd in the senior free skate and 4th overall so was very pleased as the European champion came 1st.
I pay for Academy training, need costumes, new skating boots, funds for competitions etc. If some kind person wants to help with sponsorship to help my development please let me know, or after seeing my progress you may want to provide some help:
