Resources
Welcome to PaulaWagener.com. Where you will find my my life's work on one cohesive platform. This website includes Studio2Ice, Florida Ice Performance, AIM Podcast, AIM Learn to Skate Curriculum and Aspire to AIM all within one click. Over 25 years ago, I had a dream to create an organization and resource center for choreography and style in figure skating...and that dream continues to be my reality. Thanks to virtual training, Learn to Skate USA, and many camps and clinics nationwide for U.S. Figure Skating and the Professional Skaters Association, I have been able to reach out to so many of you through the years and because of you I am proud to be putting these resources together under one website. Artistry in Motion was copyrighted in 1992 as a coaching and choreography course. In 2000, U.S. Figure Skating adopted the program into their Basic Skills program and in 2016 it was restructured for the Learn to Skate USA program. AIM has reached over 450,000 figure skaters and coaches. We are constantly evolving for the needs of figure skaters and their coaches so as their needs grew, the AIM platform grew. In 2019, Artistry in Motion grew into the digital age with a new platform -Studio2Ice.com. This video platform was designed to enhance skater's program components and skating skills and included video of exercises that can be done both on and off the ice. In 2020, Studio2Ice.com was utilized across the globe during the pandemic and helped connect and engage the figure skating community near and far through online lessons and exercises. Throughout my career, I have traveled extensively with my Artistry in Motion workshops and my off-ice class program, working with skaters of all levels across the globe. Each skater has their very own special qualities, and my goal is to enhance what is inside of each and every skater, regardless of level and lay the foundation for your success. Just “Show Up and Be You!”
