The sport of figure skating was popular in Estonia by the early 1900's. The first Estonian Ice Figure Skating Championships were held on February 26, 1917 at the Tallinn Kalev Ice Skating Rink. That event was the beginning of formal competitive figure skating in Estonia.

Estonian figure skating was represented by the Estonian Winter Sports Union (EWSU) before the Second World War, but when Est was occupied during the war, EWSU's membership in the International Skating Union (ISU) was discontinued. The Estonian Skating Union's membership in the International Skating Union was restored on January 23, 1991, allowig Estoniaq to once again compete internationally at ISU-sanctioned events as an independent country.

Estonia has competed in all Olympic Gamers and many ISU-sanctioned competitions since 1992. It has hosted international ice figure skating events includeing the European Figure Skating Championships in 2010 and the Junior World Figure Skating Championships in 2015.
