OFISC will be holding an improvisation event on Friday 27/05/2022 during normal club ice time (between 5:30 and 6:30pm). It is for OFISC members only.
The event is a rare opportunity for OFISC skaters to use their skills and imagination to create a short routine. The music they will be skating to will be a surprise on the day. Because of this, nobody will be able to practice their routine beforehand and everyone will start from the same point. This is a fantastic opportunity for OFISC skaters to experience having the whole rink to themselves during their performance, get creative and have a lot of fun!
How It Works
Depending on the number of participants, the coaches will decide if skaters will work on their own or in pairs
The coaches will choose 4 different pieces of music, each lasting 1 minute 30 seconds (may be adjusted subject to final numbers)
There will be 4 separate rooms, each assigned to a different piece of music
Each skater will pick out a piece of paper from a pot that will assign them to a room (and particular piece of music)
Once in their rooms, the skaters will hear their piece of music played on repeat for 10 minutes, during which time they will plan their routine
Skaters warm up for 3 minutes
Each skater performs their routine to a panel of 3 judges that will assign marks
Skaters will stay in their rooms until their turn to skate so that they can’t copy each other, but they can watch the rest of the performances after their turn
Once everyone has skated, there will be a presentation ceremony to announce the winner
