The Indiana Synchro Edges is beginning their inaugural year after competing for seven seasons as the circle City Flames. The team is the only Central Indiana Synchronized Skating Team; with skater from five different local rinks. Our skaters range in age from eight to eighteen, and we are proud to represent six different high schools and many different junior, middle, and elementary schools from throughout central Indiana.

We are a skating organization with two teams competing at different levels. The Teen intro USFS Team will compete in events in Indiana, Michigan, and Illinois and at the Midwestern Sectional Event in Dallas, Texas. Our Youth Team is currently in the developmental stage and will do exhibitions locally and in the Midwest. The teams practice twice a week and a Learn to Synchro Skate class is offered on Saturdays at the Arctic Zone.

Although winning is our ultimate goal; camaraderie among the skaters, good sportsmanship, teamwork and advancing skaters' skills are paramount to our success.

We are fortunate to have incredible resources available to us. We are coached by 1988 Indiana Olympian Kim Seybold Catron who instills the value of hard work and teamwork while maintaining a level of fun and enjoyment for the skaters. We have the added value of working with National and International Synchro Coach Vicki Korn of Miami University who will be doing our chorography. Being able to train with two such notable individuals in the world of skating is truly a valuable experience. The skaters will also be perfecting their overall on ice performance with local actors, musicians, and dancers.

We are active in the community as well. This year our skaters were part of the Fishers' Freedom Festival parade and will also be participating in community service activities throughout the year. We foster team spirit with team bonding events such as pizza parties, swim parties and various other team outings both here, at home, and while we are traveling.

Synchronized skating is, as some say,
"the future of figure skating"
and we are thrilled to be part of that future.
