Hey, remember us?


Recommended Posts

Not very new, but let me share some Javi contents shared or released these few weeks

 

A documentary features Javi aired in Japan at the beginning of this month. It is an episode of a series called 奇跡のレッスン. (Miracle Lesson) 

Spoiler

Part 1

 

 

Part 2

 

Aomori doesn't have an ice rink available all year round, (the venue of SOI Hachinohe to be opened this spring will be available all year round) so the young skaters training there are having difficulties in continuing skating despite having the passion for it. Having grown up in a country where figure skating wasn't popular, Javi wanted to help such young skaters, so he accepted NHK's offer and visited Aomori sometime in the last autumn. Since Javi doesn't have much experience in coaching yet, he sometimes needs to figure out how he can teach what he wants to teach while teaching the kids, but in the end, he successfully helps the kids overcome their challenges and some of them achieved good results in regional competitions.

Nonoka surprised and excited to find Javi's post

 

The program is about 2 hours long so it is hard to summarize or translate the contents, but Javi is a very creative and supportive coach here and the program is moving. Maybe Spanish speakers would get what is happening since Javi is mostly speaking Spanish although he sometimes casually says tsukareta (疲れた=tired) and otsukare-sama (お疲れさま= "we/you worked hard" or "Thank you for your hard work") 

 

ETA: Forgot to add this one:

Dice's new vlog is about his birthday this year and how he appreciates birthday wishes from fans. Many Yuzu fans were celebrating his birthday as well and he found them and thanked them as well. This time, he made this video bilingual for Japanese speakers and English speakers as well.

Nobu appeared in an exhibition held by a seasonal ice rink in his home town Osaka and skated Liebesträume (Filmed and shared by his wife Mayu)

Here are some photos shared by a spectator.

According to this article, main performers of this event were Mariko Kihara and local young skaters. It seems that Nobu visited there with his family and made an unscheduled appearance. The setting looks a bit strange but I envy those who watched his beautiful edge works from up close.
