Shima was becoming restless and bored doing laps around the ice. Any other instructions the teacher would tell them? Her eyes were become drowsy from the cold. Albeit, she was doing it at a slow pace, which helped to wake herself up a little, she stopped at the uncertain boy.
" That was a sweet entrance! Wish I'd thought of it. What's your name? " She peered curiously. She reminded herself, she must ask the other girl her name. It was good to know everybody.

"Your welcome," she said cheerfully "My name's Natalie, what’s yours?" she introduced herself to the boy. Seeing as the boy was all right now. She watched as he put his skates on then Natalie made her way to gracefully toward the ice. Walking on skates was nothing new to her in the least. Natalie smile happily feeling the ice beneath her skates she loved the feeling of gliding gracefully on the ice.
Natalie pushed forward one foot in front of the other. It seemed as though everyone knew each other and she didn't know a single person here. Natalie pulled back meekly for a moment before she picked up speed lapping around the pylons skillfully.
It was just like back at home, her wolves watched as she skated on the nearby lake.

Roslice soon became weary of the laps and switched to gliding along on one foot, ocassionally giving a twirl. Whe sighed and went back to doing her laps. This was health class right? Sure, there was something they could get out of this, but she would soon get bored by doing laps over and over. Her dark tresses blew out behind her as she skated.

The teacher gave a kind smile to Cai before addressing her students again. " Ok people this lessons is all about really knowing your body and it's strengths and weaknesses. I want your advanced skaters gliding arms spread and one leg out straight behind you. Feel your muscles you do this. Some of you will be fine and some of you are going to feel strange and slightly off balance. remember to adjust and keep your posture proper when going round the corners. " For some today's lesson would be easy but even those who skated often were not fully in touch with their bodies and didn't grasp the subtle nuances of a muscle twinge or the slightest bit of imbalance that made their posture less than perfect. If they could master this on the ice than steadier surfaces would become easy and it would help when they faced moving ones as well.
" The rest of you gather to me please and we'll work on just getting you used to skating and the ins and outs of basics forward and back words motions." There was also nothing like skating to test ones general balance and lower body strength.

Roslice lifted her left leg up, tipping down slightly to adjust and keep her center of balance. She then adjusted the angle of her right foot to even out the pressure that had shifted to one foot. As she came near a corner, she brought her left leg down to give a little extra push before lifting it back up. Using her momentum, she angled her right foot in and leaned outwards slightly using the natural syntrifical [sp?] force to keep her balanced.
[[I'm basing this off the little ice skating I know from taking classes when I was younger... I'm not sure it syntrifical [sp?] force is the correct term.]]

"My name is...Cai...," Cai answered before realizing that the girl, Natalie as she had mentioned a few moments ago, had already took off onto the ice. She was making ice skating seem so easy and Cai envied her for that.
Nevertheless, at the comand of his teacher, Cai straightened up and make his way towards the group of beginers, wobbling slightly as he did so.

Natalie's large ears heard Cai's Quiet voice "It's nice to meet you Cai!" she waved just before the teacher listed her instructions. Knowing her body She hadn't paid much attention when she was just playing with her wolves. This was going to be helpful in her acts but of course that’s why she was here
She flicked her ears back and began gliding on one leg and felt how her back leg tensed as she began her glide and how her front leg that was supporting her was more tense than the other, as her glide on her one leg began to slow she pushed forward with the other alternating legs and in the middle of the motion her legs relaxed for only a moment before they tensed up again, keeping herself carefully balance she repeated the process noticing every little while she did unbalance not to an obvious extent, but she felt it in the way her muscles moved. Natalie had done this before but hadn't paid detailed attention to how her body moved in these motions she was amazed at how little attention she paid when she practiced the movement of her muscles were so subtle.
Natalie adjusted her posture, her upper body was too relaxed while skating she began to realize as she continued the exercise.
The wolfish girl began to wonder how her two wolven friends were doing by themselves, they should be fine but they will be bored for quite a bit. Normally Natalie would be with them almost always even here at the Stage. Natalie gave a slight sigh as her mind continued to wander paying less attention suddenly to how she was skating .

Chiyako perked up at the instructions, intruiged. 'Sounds like a challenge. I wonder what the trick to it is.' She thought, getting a bit of speed. Carefully, she began to raise her leg, taking her time until the had straightened it out behind her, wobbling a bit. After that, she spanned her arms out. 'Tight rope almost...But with ice!' She thought, nodding.
While she didn't have much experience with much of the stage, the ice was almost home to her. The ice festivals, the very heart and soul of her hometown, had shaped this for her. It may have been a few years, but the understanding and the feel remained.

Shima really didnt want to have to put effort with the teacher. She was just feeling simply too lazy. Sighing, she put a bit of effort into following the teacher's instructions, as she held out her arms, staying in a small free corner.
She really wanted to go sleep.
