I imagine Nashville Skating Academy gets a surge of students (like me) who are inspired to try to join the sport after watching the Winter Olympics. The academy’s adult sessions are really well-attended, and the coaches do a stellar job accommodating different comfort levels, offering challenges while keeping it fun and chill. You’ll have teammates from the start, and an opportunity to move into higher levels if you really get into it. I see the appeal — being on the ice makes you forget the world’s stresses, if only because you’re suddenly more stressed about falling on your ass.
