Objective of the study: To increase the level of coordination skills of 6-8 year old figure skaters at the initial training stage to improve their technical preparedness.

Methods and structure of the study: The educational experiment was conducted from June to April of the 2023-2024 training year. The experiment involved 6-8 year old figure skaters with the young figure skater standard and 2-3 youth categories of the State Budgetary Institution of Additional Education of the Republic of Mordovia Sports School "Figure Skating Academy" under the guidance of the Honored Coach of Russia, Head Coach of the Republic of Mordovia, I. N. Yakovleva. During the year, the exercise complexes developed for the experiment for training figure skaters were introduced, and a number of motor and medical-biological tests were conducted to determine the level of development of coordination abilities and the state of the vestibular analyzer.

Results and conclusions: The results of the formation of coordination abilities of figure skaters at the initial training stage before and after the experiment presented in the article demonstrate positive dynamics, a significant improvement in the indicators of the formation of coordination abilities of figure skaters aged 6-8 years at the initial training stage was obtained, which proved the effectiveness of the proposed set of exercises. Theoretically analyzed the studies of a number of authors within the framework of the stated topic, practically proposed a set of exercises according to the analysis.

Keywords: coordination abilities, development of coordination abilities, set of exercises, indicators of development of coordination abilities, initial training stage.
