Professional Skaters Association

The Professional Skaters Association (PSA) was organized in 1938. The PSA is the official figure skating coach's education, training and accreditation program for the U.S. Figure Skating and the Ice Skating Institute. We are the largest and most recognized of all figure skating coach's organizations in the world. Our offices were moved from New Yor... k to Rochester in 1984 and in 2000 we built our beautiful, award-winning headquarters at 3006 Allegro Park SW. The exterior granite is was mined at Cold Spring, Minnesota and transported to Rochester during construction in the summer of 2000. Our membership consists of coaching members who train skaters from grassroots to elite levels of competition as well as judges and fans of the sport. Education, ethics and safety are the main focus of our organization. We organize over 30 educational seminars each year. Accreditation is also important to our organization. We offer ten disciplines of examination for our members who desire to be board certified in one of four levels from Registered to Master. Currently we have a membership of 6400 coaches worldwide, a staff of 15 employees and 215 volunteers nationwide. PSA and U.S. Figure Skating Coaching Education Program is recognized by the USOC (United States Olympic Committee) as a CNS (Complies with National Standards) endorsed coaching education program. This endorsement has only been given to two other sports' NGB's and we are the first independent coaching organization to receive this award.Read More
