Jamie Forsythe (born April 17, 1987) is a Canadian figure skating coach and retired senior international figure skater. He is the 2006 Triglav Trophy junior silver medalist and junior bronze medalist at the 2006 Canadian nationals.[1] After injuries prevented him from competing singles during the 2007-08 season, he switched disciplines to ice dancing, teaming up with Sarah Flesher during the 2008-09 season.[4] In their only season together, they advanced to the 2009 Canadian nationals, placing 11th.[2] He continued to pursue ice dancing with Laurence Darveau during the 2009-10 season.[3] Following that season, he retired from competitive skating to continue his coaching career and attend Concordia University where he earned a degree in contemporary dance.[5]
As of 2017, he is the co-director of the Greater Toronto Skating Academy (GTSA) and coaches and choreographs for various skaters.[5]
