Laura Brito Liu

My name is Laura Brito Liu. I was born in Brazil and few years later my family moved to the Netherlands, where I have been skating since I was 7 y.o.

Now I am 13 y.o. and I am back to following my skating dream since summer 2023 – after the 2 years full stop due to the growth injury. I am so happy to be over it!

Figure Skating sport is my absolute passion. I dream to contribute to it as much as I can – promoting it’s unique beauty with complex technics hidden behind it.

I also dream to make it more popular and affordable, especially in the countries like Brazil, where ice is quite an exotic luxury and most of the kids cannot afford trying out a skating fun.

“Having a dream, try to do each day at least a little effort approximating you to it and never stop believing “

Each contribution is very appreciated and brings Laura one step closer to her ice dream!

During the winter season I skate by several Ice rinks – usually in the North Holland – within max 64km distance from my place.

My current club I represent at the local Dutch competitions is Amaranth and my Head coach is Astrid Winkelman, who has been coaching me since I started in 2019 as a competitive skater. I try to make it maximum possible amount of training hours per week with my Head coach Astrid, which is quite challenging because she herself lives 138 km distance from where I live.

Thus, I am a guest member by other North Holland clubs and I am also happy to train ‘ad hoc’ with other available coaches nearby – to be able to make it maximum possible skating hours per week. Besides commuting challenges, I have to combine TopSport with the college studies, which requires from me a very strict daily regime.
