Hi, my name is Tessa Lu Eilders and I’m from Phoenix, Arizona! I have 14 years of figure skating behind me. I grew up in Minnesota/ South Dakota and that’s where I got into the profession. I’m a double gold medalist in Moves in the field and solo free dance. I’m also tested through my pre-silver. 

During my junior year of high school, I was the president of the junior board of the Sioux Falls Figure Skating Club. I created the buddy system for younger skaters (younger skaters get paired up with older skaters, to help them with their skating skills). 

I competed on the  Theater on Ice team with the Sioux Falls Figure Skating Club, which we competed at nationals back in 2019. I skated during college at Adrian College on their open-collegiate synchro team as well as their figure skating team for my freshman year. I was offered a skating scholarship to attend Adrian College.
