Figure Skating advice? Please?

Practice strengthening your ankles, and balance exercises. It is natural for a figure skater to have their ankles lean in a little bit, but in order to resolve some of it a good pair of properly fitting skates, getting good strength in your ankles you should be able to resolve most of this.Wanted clip from Prime Sports 1994 Ski Action with Rock N Roll song?

Make sure your skates fit. Are they yours or rentals? Also, check that you are properly. Do they feel tight? Even if you think they feel okay, they need to be tight!Maybe you could get inserts to put in for more support.
Other than that, practice keeping your ankles really straight and standing tall. Good luck!

make sure you tie your skates really tight, especally in the ankle area. If your foot still leans in, then you probably need orthotics or to do ankle strentghening excericises.Question for people who SNOWSKATE!?
the best advice for you is that you need new skates. im not sure what kind of skates you have but your problem is one of 2 things... 1) your skates are not good enough to support your weight (do they flop from side to side at the top with your feet out?) or 2) your blades are not in the right spot for your personal balance (not all people have their blades set right down the centre of the boot).. hope that helps! good luckSummer skiing in Canada ; are there big slopes (with lifts, no helicopter)?
practise practise practise your edges! your skates could need sharpening. but i suggest you do a simple edge exercise. you could ask your coach to teach you one of these i would try to explain but its quite hard to explain without pictures and there dont seem to be any videos on youtube :Ssorry! hope this helps though! xox
good luck
I think it's your skates. Are you wearing rentals, or your own skates? If they are your own skates, are they good skates? I think you need better skates.
