Mihoko Higuchi’s Journey with LYS Skate Club

LYS Skate Club

Two years ago, renowned figure skating coach Mihoko Higuchi embarked on a new adventure. She parted ways with her long-standing team to open her own skating club, LYS Skate Club, finally making her childhood dream come true. LYS is an acronym for “Let Yourself Shine.” As head coach, she is supported by her son, Shota Higuchi, who serves as a physical trainer at the rink. Higuchi has served as both coach and choreographer for over 35 years training many top skaters and solidifying her legacy in the sport.
