California Figure Skating, formerly known as the Berkeley Figure Skating Club (BFSC), was founded in September, 2003, when two dedicated skaters, Katie Specht and Asya Passinsky, joined together to promote figure skating at UC Berkeley. The team is a growing group of college students who love figure skating and wish to compete throughout their busy college years.
In its first year of establishment, the team already qualified to compete at the National Intercollegiate Figure Skating Championships in Amherst, MA, and achieved a seventh place debut finish. Since then, CalFS has qualified to compete at every Nationals. After working hard all year to recruit skaters and organize an active club, CalFS received the UC Berkeley Student Group Dedication to a Cause Award. Since October of 2004, Cal FS has been an official Club Sport of UC Berkeley.
In additional to the competitive scene, CalFS is also developing a recreational side through organizing Skate Nights when team members teach skating techniques. We also welcome organizations to contact us for co-hosting skating events while we provide lessons.
