She skated with the Ice Follies and Ice Capades before becoming a coach in LA in the 1950s. She went on to coach and mentor pairs skaters Tai Babilonia and Randy Gardner, Kristi Yamaguchi, Rudy Galindo, and Debi Thomas, among others. She was inducted into the U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame in 1997.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why don’t more people know about Mabel? Two-time Olympian and five-time U.S. pairs champion Tai Babilonia says she gets this question a lot. “If it weren’t for her, we wouldn’t be having this conversation, and it’s my duty to keep [her] legacy going,” Babilonia says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Figure skating is different from other sports. It’s not just about a player’s physical prowess, but how they integrate dance and artistry into their performance. It’s like storytelling and historically, the sport has centered white, heteronormative standards with performances almost always set to classical music; formal or cookie-cutter costuming; petite feminine women, broad masculine men in service of a fantastical image of unbothered perfection. Markers of Black culture, queerness or anything nontraditional have been largely absent from the sport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Learn Two Foot Spins and Ice Skating Moves for Beginners | If Cities Could Dance\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/bOM3JUu01Rc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s still really radical for someone to come out there and skate to jazz,” says Dorothy Jones-Davis, mother to 13-year-old up-and-coming figure skater Zuri Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For trans non-binary former champion skater Eliot Halverson, figure skating is a release, but growing up, it also was confusing. “Skating offered a lot of confusion for me as a young queer kid and muddied the waters that were already muddy,” says Halverson. They credit seeing queer skaters like Rudy Galindo, the first openly gay figure skating champion, with helping to break gender molds in figure skating. (This year, pairs skater Timothy LeDuc became the first openly non-binary Winter Olympics athlete.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also economic barriers to enter the sport. “You have to pay to get on to the ice,” Savary explains. The ice skates, sessions, music, choreography, coaches, travel to competitions, costumes: it adds up fast. When Zuri started skating, Jones-Davis said families would help each other with hand-me-downs and old skates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when Savary founded Diversify Ice in 2017 to introduce figure skating to youth of color, and started recruiting skaters in Anacostia, a Black neighborhood in southeast D.C., he’d ask residents about skating at the local Dupont Ice Arena. The answer was: “‘We know that ice rink is there, but it’s only open for figure skaters that compete,’” he says. “Some other families right across the street didn’t even know that that was an ice rink.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through his foundation, Savary wants to help redefine who and what a skater can be. He provides aspiring skaters of color with mentorship, scholarships and a sense of community. “I’m able to see people that look like me, and be with people that look like me,” says Zuri, who is now a Diversify Ice ambassador with dreams of competing in figure skating at the highest level, like her idol Starr Andrews.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching Davis practice her skate program on the ice rink at the National Gallery Sculpture Garden with Savary, her dream feels in reach. “I think things could have been a lot different for many skaters of color had this foundation been around 20 years ago,” says Savary. “I want to continue to foster that growth, that confidence within all of these skaters.”\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Watch skaters in Washington, D.C.,continue the legacy of Mabel Fairbanks, who challenged the elite sport.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1705007139,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":true,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":21,"wordCount":1179},"headData":{"title":"Black Ice Skating Legends Inspire Today’s Olympic Hopefuls | KQED","description":"Watch skaters in Washington, D.C.,continue the legacy of Mabel Fairbanks, who challenged the elite sport.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"Black Ice Skating Legends Inspire Today’s Olympic Hopefuls","datePublished":"2022-03-02T23:37:17.000Z","dateModified":"2024-01-11T21:05:39.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"videoEmbed":"https://youtu.be/ieG5-iAqjPc","pbsMediaId":"3071170252","sticky":false,"nprByline":"Chinwe Oniah","excludeFromSiteSearch":"Include","showOnAuthorArchivePages":"No","path":"/arts/13909972/if-cities-could-dance-black-ice-skating","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003ca style=\"font-weight: 400;font-style: italic\" href=\"https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeGdTT0--8Kh9ohLGAYIVzVb-TKwEAxER\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">If Cities Could Dance\u003c/a>\u003ci style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is KQED Arts’ award-winning video series featuring dancers across the country who represent their city’s signature moves. \u003ca href=\"https://bit.ly/SubscribeKQEDArts\">Subscribe to our Youtube Channel\u003c/a> to never miss a new episode. \u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Growing up in sunny Florida, Joel Savary’s love for figure skating was typically met with raised eyebrows, and the belief that Black people don’t ice skate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Savary found himself glued to the television every Winter Olympics.

(Backflips had been banned from competitions since 1976, and many saw her move as a middle-finger to antiquated rules and judging.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Bonaly was breaking barriers, there was another Black skater laying the groundwork for her success: \u003ca href=\"https://dancespirit.com/mabel-fairbanks-black-skater/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mabel Fairbanks.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of us owe a great deal to Mabel,” says Atoy Wilson, the first African American to title in a national competition in 1965, who was also coached by Fairbanks. “We [stand] on the shoulders of someone who broke that ice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13909975\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 462px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13909975\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2022/03/AtoyWilson-800x1089.jpg\" alt=\"Atoy Wilson leaps several feet off the ice, reaching his arms up, with one leg fully extended and the other bent.\" width=\"462\" height=\"629\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">In 1966, Atoy Wilson was the first African American skater to win a national title in figure skating, with the Novice men’s title. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Atoy Wilson)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In 1940s New York, Fairbanks wasn’t allowed to compete because of her skin color. She skated with the Ice Follies and Ice Capades before becoming a coach in LA in the 1950s. She went on to coach and mentor pairs skaters Tai Babilonia and Randy Gardner, Kristi Yamaguchi, Rudy Galindo, and Debi Thomas, among others. She was inducted into the U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame in 1997.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why don’t more people know about Mabel? Two-time Olympian and five-time U.S. pairs champion Tai Babilonia says she gets this question a lot. “If it weren’t for her, we wouldn’t be having this conversation, and it’s my duty to keep [her] legacy going,” Babilonia says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Figure skating is different from other sports. It’s not just about a player’s physical prowess, but how they integrate dance and artistry into their performance. It’s like storytelling and historically, the sport has centered white, heteronormative standards with performances almost always set to classical music; formal or cookie-cutter costuming; petite feminine women, broad masculine men in service of a fantastical image of unbothered perfection. Markers of Black culture, queerness or anything nontraditional have been largely absent from the sport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Learn Two Foot Spins and Ice Skating Moves for Beginners | If Cities Could Dance\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/bOM3JUu01Rc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s still really radical for someone to come out there and skate to jazz,” says Dorothy Jones-Davis, mother to 13-year-old up-and-coming figure skater Zuri Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For trans non-binary former champion skater Eliot Halverson, figure skating is a release, but growing up, it also was confusing. “Skating offered a lot of confusion for me as a young queer kid and muddied the waters that were already muddy,” says Halverson. They credit seeing queer skaters like Rudy Galindo, the first openly gay figure skating champion, with helping to break gender molds in figure skating. (This year, pairs skater Timothy LeDuc became the first openly non-binary Winter Olympics athlete.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also economic barriers to enter the sport. “You have to pay to get on to the ice,” Savary explains. The ice skates, sessions, music, choreography, coaches, travel to competitions, costumes: it adds up fast. When Zuri started skating, Jones-Davis said families would help each other with hand-me-downs and old skates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So when Savary founded Diversify Ice in 2017 to introduce figure skating to youth of color, and started recruiting skaters in Anacostia, a Black neighborhood in southeast D.C., he’d ask residents about skating at the local Dupont Ice Arena. The answer was: “‘We know that ice rink is there, but it’s only open for figure skaters that compete,’” he says. “Some other families right across the street didn’t even know that that was an ice rink.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through his foundation, Savary wants to help redefine who and what a skater can be. He provides aspiring skaters of color with mentorship, scholarships and a sense of community. “I’m able to see people that look like me, and be with people that look like me,” says Zuri, who is now a Diversify Ice ambassador with dreams of competing in figure skating at the highest level, like her idol Starr Andrews.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching Davis practice her skate program on the ice rink at the National Gallery Sculpture Garden with Savary, her dream feels in reach. “I think things could have been a lot different for many skaters of color had this foundation been around 20 years ago,” says Savary. “I want to continue to foster that growth, that confidence within all of these skaters.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/arts/13909972/if-cities-could-dance-black-ice-skating","authors":["byline_arts_13909972"],"programs":["arts_1725"],"series":["arts_4422"],"categories":["arts_1"],"tags":["arts_11374","arts_1118","arts_10278","arts_4522","arts_4524","arts_596","arts_4506","arts_4204","arts_1007","arts_7628"],"featImg":"arts_13909993","label":"arts_1725"},"arts_13906814":{"type":"posts","id":"arts_13906814","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"arts","id":"13906814","score":null,"sort":[1641312308000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"dance-into-the-new-year-with-6-super-how-to-videos","title":"Dance into the New Year With 6 Super How-To Videos","publishDate":1641312308,"format":"standard","headTitle":"Dance into the New Year With 6 Super How-To Videos | KQED","labelTerm":{"term":1725,"site":"arts"},"content":"\u003cp>Ready to shake off the old year, burn off some holiday calories and jumpstart your New Year’s resolutions?
