What is the difference between ice skating and pairs?
Ice dancing is always done in pairs, and no jumps or throws are allowed. Figure skating focuses more on jumps, lifts, death spirals, and spins. While figure skaters are scored on the connecting footwork between all of those elements, ice dancers are judged more on the precision of their footwork.
What makes a skater?
Being able to control your movements, especially at high speeds, is the result of having exceptional core strength. The skater must also have a good body lean. By leaning properly, a skater is shrinking the angle from his/her body to the ice that in turn will create more speed.

Is a beginner skater a poser?
Be careful, a poser is very different from a beginner in skateboarding, in fact, it is quite the opposite. A poser is about a person who does not belong to the skateboarding world, and who only appropriates the style of the skater just for his image.
