Hi Arminda! To be able to turn quickly, you need to get comfortable transferring your weight to one side and using your edges. You can practice in shoes, then in skates while holding a rail or wall, then while rolling. It’s ALL about the weight transfer – if you don’t shift, you wont turn. You can also make sure you’re looking in the direction you want to go, and turning your shoulders and hips in that direction too. If you look, the rest will follow. Good luck!
