Figure skating legends inspire youth at Olympic Day event

A figure skating public welfare class, held at the National Speed Skating Oval on Sunday to commemorate Olympic Day, became a platform for inspiration and skill-building for young enthusiasts.

Former Team China figure skater Tong Jian, a two-time world champion in figure skating pairs alongside his partner Pang Qing, and Russian international coach Andrei Lazukin, took the lead in guiding the eager students through ice skating exercises. Their hands-on approach not only showcased the intricacies of the sport but also nurtured a relaxed and enjoyable learning environment for all participants.
