       The sport of figure skating includes the following disciplines that are organized as non-qualifying and qualifying competition events hosted by the United States Figure Skating Association:

        Each discipline is based on the fundamental ability to skate on controlled, flowing edges, and while  generating continuous and effortless power.  While many sports do not evaluate the form and technique of the athlete, figure skating equally emphasizes the style and grace over the bruit physical endeavors of the athletes.

        Beginners share a desire to not spend time acquiring the fundamental skating skills before rushing to jump or spin or pick up a hockey strick and score goals.
