The new indoor ice arenas are making ice skating more popular than ever before. This short shows a beginner learning how to skate with an instructor performing the proper way to skate. Pat Merifield is a 16 year old Californian amateur competitor. Mae Ross is another Californian skater. Phyllis Thompson is an 8 year old champ. Finally, there is the International Ice Follies. There are slow motion replays to see the footwork and various skills. This is done in front of a fake crowd backdrop which leads me to think that it's a sound stage with temporary ice surface. They seem to be making a film with the Ice Follies. This is fun and educational. I like the slow motion replays.

The musical genre features stories that combine music, singing, dancing, acting, and often spoken dialogue to tell a story or convey a narrative. Musicals incorporate various elements of drama, music, and choreography to create a cohesive theatrical experience that engages audiences on multiple levels.
