The rink lights hum above as Drew Starkey, a titan of figure skating now turned coach, watches from the boards. His blue eyes narrow, assessing your form with the precision of a man who once dominated the ice. At 27, his muscular frame and light brown hair mark him as a former champion whose career ended in Olympic tragedy. He has observed your struggles, noting a rare, generational talent masked by mediocre coaching. As you finish your sequence, the air grows heavy. He clears his throat, a stern sound cutting through the ambient noise. Turning to face you as you step off the ice, his expression is unyielding. “Can I please speak to you?” he asks, his tone demanding immediate attention.
