@bwzebraslol I know. Isn't that funny? I laugh so hard when I watch this video. The spot lights really blind you so that you can't see where you are. The good news is that the judges didn't see it because they were on the other side of the wall but up a little bit. Still, I was lucky that they couldn't see. :)
Dear Gia, that program was amazing! I am currently learning my full loop and just finished my salchow toe loop. Is it too late to start competiting? I am around th age of 13.
You are a phenomenal skater. I am actually a skater too, but I am not competitive yet. I am around 13 or so, is it too late to begin competing. My dad wants me to get very skilled before starting. I do agree with him. Anyways, this dress is gorgeous! I love it! Where did you get it?
@SparklyBrunette I don't think that it is ever too late to start competing. My mom started at 41! Thanks for the nice words about my skating. I loved this dress soooooo much! It was made by designer, Francisco Martinez, who designs for the LA Ballet Company.
@wluu1 I am dying to skate to that song- or just instrumental music from Titanic. I am studying the Titanic and have read 5 books about the disaster in the past few weeks. One of my Senior skating friends skated to music from Titanic and if I could skate as beautifully as she can, I would use that music!
@wluu1 SP Teri's come in a wide range of boot styles and they have a wide range of prices. I wear the Zero Gravity boots by SP Teri and mine are about $500.
@wluu1 Nope, those are stock boots. There are many that are that expensive and higher that are stock boots. Mine are about the norm for doing double axels and triples.
Hey Gia I was just wondering how much are your skating lessons? Mine are 30 dollars for 30 minute. Skating is a pretty expensive sport but really worth it.
@wluu1 mine vary from $45-50 per half hour. Ouch! That is expensive. That is why I have to try to really listen to my coaches and get the most out of my lessons.
@wluu1 I totally almost fell on my bottom!!!! Hahaha. It is funny now. I was in 2nd grade then. It seems like just yesterday, but that competition was 2 years ago in June!
Hi Gia, im also 10 and im in preliminary going to pre juv i luv your skating you are my role model!!!! :))) i especially luuuvvvv this program its very elaborated just like all your other ones too!!ur awesome :)
@jsisterzforeva Thanks so much. It was alot of fun. This year I will be Intermediate. I hope that I can skate well. I am working on my double Axel and triple Sow. Courtney Hicks was helping me today!
@JemWykeSmith This dress had hanging things that the designer did. My mom did the white dresses and the red dress from the La Jolla Open video. She uses different colors and usually the 20's for size
I know I already posted a whole bunch of comments but wow! I love this program! I love the song choice! Glee is my favorite tv show! Do you watch it? For my skating program I am considering using Get it Right from Glee! Have u heard that song? If so do you think it would be a good choice for my program??
@angiangelluvsu That is a GREAT song to skate to!!!! I want to see a video of your program when you compete! I am not allowed to watch Glee, but I love the music. I just turned 10 and my mom thinks it is too old for me, plus I go to bed really early. Except tomorrow is a holiday so I don't have to skate early. Hahaha.
@CandyLove799 I was 8 years old. I just turned 10. You can see my latest competitions on my channel in the yellow dress. Thanks for the kind words. This year I will be Intermediate level.
wow Gia! You are FANTASTIC! I am a figure skater as well and I am really inspired by your skating! Can you give me some tips on a split jump? BTW Gia is a really pretty name! My name is Angela but I kinda wish that my name was Gia!
@angieangelluvsu That is so funny- I am not sure that I like my name all the time. Split jumps can be tricky. Sometimes mine looks like a dog's tail hanging with my back leg, but if that happens, I correct by jumping higher and really going for the scissor motion. I practice holding on to the boards and jumping and scissoring. Good luck!
@kokotakis thanks for the info. U r really good also. I am actully believe it or not great at handling when trying to stop. I am getting shoes and getting prepared to start. Also they said it is good that I had a dance background. So just thank u once again.
@dance90x Dance is great for skating. Everyone has trouble stopping at first- I remember running into the boards again and again. Just have fun and keep skating!
Hey Gia. I just quit dance competition. Now I want to start figure skating competition. Can u tell me the basic steps to start with lessons and what I should do??? Thanks
@dance90x That is so great. The first thing is to learn to stroke and stop. Believe it or not, stopping can be hard when you first start to skate. Good luck.
@ImHurtXxXIceSkater practice your split jump holding onto the boards and scissoring your legs. My mom said that my split jump today was not very good and that my back leg was sagging, so you have to be mindful of it all the time. Flying camel- land with your back arched and press into your baby toe.
@Kokotakis Hey Gia! :) I was just wondering who comes to watch all of your competitions (parents, siblings, etc.) whenever I watch your competition video, I always here a bunch of girls screaming at the beginning and whenver you land double jumps and do spin combos; are those all your friends cheering for you?? :) btw, this is by far my fave performance you've ever done! It was FLAWLESS with tons of personality! Kudos to you! :D
@JemWykeSmith Gia usually has just her father and I in the audience from her family, but she has many friends that are skaters and are usually in the rink for the competition. Gia and her friends support each other, which I think is really nice.
Wow! Your. Ah-mazing! I'm 12, and want to start figure skating! Any pointers? And yes, I know how to skate, and have taken some classes, ofcourse! lol
@theappachiprincesse Gia is sleeping but wanted me to tell you that practice is what makes good skaters. She practices all the time. Seriously, she does jumps all over the house all the time and she is constantly thinking about skating.
@Kokotakis OMG Thanks so much! Tell her that I think her practice has payed off soooo much cuz I've looked around u tube for skater videos, and she's by far the best! Also awesome song choice I LUV Glee! XD Thanks again! ;)
Hey, when you say Nationals....do you mean like, the real nationals like the one Sasha Cohen skates in? How is that possible? Sorry i just began competition so i am wondering :) GREAT job.
@TheSkatingGirlDream No. This is an artistic program and there is a National Showcase Competition that is for USFS Preliminary up through Senior levels. It is for Artistic skating as opposed to freeskating that you see at the Olympics and at US Nationals. You qualify for National Showcase by placing in a local, sanctioned competition.
Gia, you are so wonderful at skating. you are so enthusiastic and you are so professional and amazing to watch,. i adore you so much and you have a fabulous routine, it just dazzles! xxx
First of all, I just want to say that Gia is so amazing and I very much enjoy watching her perform! It is clear she loves what she is doing! Secondly, in this video, you say she won this, but I recently looked at another competitor's video Violet Greene, and it says that she won. I was just looking for clarification: Did Gia compete in a different category than Violet Greene?
@FatGirl97 We know Violet Greene and we absolutely adore her! She is an amazing skater and a good friend. She was in the character event, I think, with her amazing Cat in the Hat. Have you seen it? It is really entertaining. This was Preliminary Light Entertainment.
@Kokotakis Yes I have seen her video and I completely agree with you! What I was wondering was, did they compete in different categories? Because the titles on both your video and Violets video say the girls won..........
@FatGirl97 Yes, they were in either different categories or different groups. I think the Cat in the Hat was in the Character category. But Violet did win first place at this competition. She was wonderful!
she is very lovely. her and violet greene will indeed compete in the future alot! my niece is 5 and i take her to her first lessons tomorrow she super excited
hi gias mom your daughter is so fun to watch what level is she on now and by any chance whould you know where she got that beautieful dress from..your doing great gia keep it up
@blessedfigureskater Thanks for the lovely words. Gia will compete for the first time at Juvenile level tomorrow evening. She will wear the dress from this video- the pink one, though she is skating to Gershwin. Her new dress by Jan Longmire isn't ready yet. Jan was making Yuna Kim's dresses for Worlds, though Yuna won't be competing at Worlds in Russia at the end of April due to previous commitments. The dress was made by Franco Martinez of Hollywood for Gia.
@7agplace7 Gia turned 9 at the end of December and is about to compete for the first time at Juvenile Level. She is working on her double axel and has started working on triple sowchow.
So when she started how often did you take her? And how often at 5 years? My little one is 4 and loves skating - would love her to follow in Gia's footsteps!!
@surfergirljen At 5 years old she was skating public sessions 3 or 4 times per week. She had her lessons during that time- usually 1 private lesson per week, but she was in 2 group classes. The group classes gave her access to the public sessions, so it wasn't that expensive.
Whoa she was so amazng!! If you dont mind me asking, when did she start skating?? Because, she is a really talanted skater and get ready for the olypics!!! LOL!
She is such a great skater! I see her in the olympics...In fact, she is as good as the people in olympics....If you dont mind me asking, how long has she been skating?
... This Made me Want ToStart Skating She Is So Good! ... Is It Any Easier To Skate If You Are A High End Gymnast? ( Lots Aof Balence Coordanation And Flexibility) <3
@jessandlulaaX I think that a gymnast would have a great advantage. Knowing how to get your body to rotate in the air, not to mention core strength, flexibility and superb balance!!! That is definitely a plus. Go for it!!!
@jessandlulaaX Definatley! I was a gymnast before i started skating and it REALLY helped! I exceeded almost x2 faster than the others and i'm pretty sure you would too!
I don't think it even needs to be said that she will be an Olympic hot topic!! What a fantastic skater with beautiful facial expressions. It is obvious she adores what she is doing and has pride in her skate. Congratulations and good luck in the future!
@leecallie123 Gia wears the SP Teri Zero Gravity Boot. I highly recommend it because it is so light, yet well made. Gia is landing (cheated) double axels on them and they aren't breaking down. Her signature gold blades are Paramounts and I would only recommend them to a skater with at least 2 double jumps- they are very advanced. I don't skate on a blade that advanced. I have all my single jumps and am working on my axel.
@Kokotakis she is amazing! Im at your level. I am just passing to freestyle 5 and 6 and 3 and 4 spins, and i have all my single jumps down and land my axel 70% of the time, and i wish i could be as good as her. Im 11, started skating age 10. Im terrible! :(

hi gias mom your daughter is so fun to watch what level is she on now and by any chance whould you know where she got that beautieful dress from..your doing great gia keep it up

@blessedfigureskater Thanks for the lovely words. Gia will compete for the first time at Juvenile level tomorrow evening. She will wear the dress from this video- the pink one, though she is skating to Gershwin. Her new dress by Jan Longmire isn't ready yet. Jan was making Yuna Kim's dresses for Worlds, though Yuna won't be competing at Worlds in Russia at the end of April due to previous commitments. The dress was made by Franco Martinez of Hollywood for Gia.

Hi Gia's Mom!
So when she started how often did you take her? And how often at 5 years? My little one is 4 and loves skating - would love her to follow in Gia's footsteps!!

@surfergirljen At 5 years old she was skating public sessions 3 or 4 times per week. She had her lessons during that time- usually 1 private lesson per week, but she was in 2 group classes. The group classes gave her access to the public sessions, so it wasn't that expensive.

... This Made me Want ToStart Skating She Is So Good! ... Is It Any Easier To Skate If You Are A High End Gymnast? ( Lots Aof Balence Coordanation And Flexibility) <3
jessandlulaaX 1 year ago
@jessandlulaaX I think that a gymnast would have a great advantage. Knowing how to get your body to rotate in the air, not to mention core strength, flexibility and superb balance!!! That is definitely a plus. Go for it!!!
Kokotakis 1 year ago
@jessandlulaaX Definatley! I was a gymnast before i started skating and it REALLY helped! I exceeded almost x2 faster than the others and i'm pretty sure you would too!

I don't think it even needs to be said that she will be an Olympic hot topic!! What a fantastic skater with beautiful facial expressions. It is obvious she adores what she is doing and has pride in her skate. Congratulations and good luck in the future!

@SarahBesbris As a family, we make a great many sacrifices to pay for Gia's skating. I think it is worth it.

what brand and model skates does she own?? and also what level is she at?? she is great!!!! keep it up gia!! you are a star
leecallie123 1 year ago
@leecallie123 Gia wears the SP Teri Zero Gravity Boot. I highly recommend it because it is so light, yet well made. Gia is landing (cheated) double axels on them and they aren't breaking down. Her signature gold blades are Paramounts and I would only recommend them to a skater with at least 2 double jumps- they are very advanced. I don't skate on a blade that advanced. I have all my single jumps and am working on my axel.
Kokotakis 1 year ago
@Kokotakis she is amazing! Im at your level. I am just passing to freestyle 5 and 6 and 3 and 4 spins, and i have all my single jumps down and land my axel 70% of the time, and i wish i could be as good as her. Im 11, started skating age 10. Im terrible! :(
