Parents, Skaters + Coaches: Save this for tomorrow. 🎧⛸️
The Athlete Lab Podcast is dropping a new episode with Igor Shpilband, one of the most influential coaches in ice dance, and it’s packed with perspective you can actually use with skaters.
We talk coaching and skating origins, developing athletes across multiple countries, what it takes to build strong partnerships (including pairs), and how programs are shaped through storylines, details, and performance. Igor also breaks down judging: what gets rewarded, common misconceptions, and what athletes can focus on to keep progressing.
Live tomorrow on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
