My name is Twyla Notley and Olds has been my home now for 6 years. I moved here from Strathmore and Calgary before that. I have 12 years of teaching experience. I have taught all levels of skating including synchro. I started coaching with the Calalta club in Calgary and have taught in many arenas over the years – 3 years in Olds when I moved here, 2 in Innisfail and now I’m glad to be back home in Olds teaching. I look forward to a great season and skaters – always remember to have fun.

I am a grade 12 student. I’ve been skating since I was about 6 years old. So far in my skating career I have achieved triple gold status in the Dance, Skills and Interpretive areas. I also hope to move forward in my Freeskate this year. Next year, I plan to attend College and would like to continue coaching. To me, it is a great benefit to be able to coach children the basics of a sport that I enjoy so much. Outside of skating I enjoy playing soccer, traveling and spending time with friends and family!
