Sky Rink Director of Skating School, Wade Corbett, Profiled by the New York Times

Ronnie Talerico, Sky Rink General Manager

Ice Skating , Sky Rink No Comments »
The New York Times recently swung by Chelsea Piers to interview Sky Rink Director of Skating School Wade Corbett about his experience at Sky Rink.
 
The 64-year-old first laced up a pair of skates at the original Sky Rink in midtown when he was 25 years old (and he experienced quite a fall!). Now, Corbett runs a program for aspiring skaters "age 3 until death," he says. The youngest skaters in the Sky Rink Skating School are merely 3 years old, while Corbett's oldest pupil is 64. 
 
Corbett also spends a great deal of time on the ice in the summer, as he helps run the Ice Skating program in the Chelsea Piers Summer Sports Camps.  Click here to read the full feature in the New York Times, and to learn more about Wade Corbett.
