Carol Lane: A TSL Interview

With over 35 years of coaching experience at the National, European, World and Olympic level, Carol has a lifetime love of the sport that will never be extinguished. Having developed many skaters from their earliest steps to international level, she loves the process of developing young athletes and watching them live their dreams. Carol’s love of music and movement has led her to develop specialties in the areas of program design, choreography, and technical skills. She is currently the head coach of Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier, Carolane Soucisse and Shane Firus, and Nadiia Bashynska and Peter Beaumont. During our interview, I ask her about her teams, the upcoming World Championships, Canada's potential bronze medal in the team event at the 2022 Olympic Games and why she didn't watch Piper and Paul skate at Four Continents earlier this morning.
