Paskud Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Just now, Fay said: Ayumi as a partner. But let’s wait and see, In my mind I told Shingo to ask Moa, but it didn't work. I'm sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's at around 56 minute mark on the Waseda on Ice recording on Youtube. Quite a good swagger and lovely skating skills - fit for an ice dancer. Also congrats for the new "AyuShin" dance team, and good luck for the next Winter Olympics at Milano! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let’s wait and see, I haven't watched Ayumi Takanami compete so I have no idea about her skating skills. I hope this partnership will work out better this time. Too early to tell, as you say.

sweetwater Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I still miss UtaShin a lot but am wishing AyuShin good luck at the same time. Ayumi and Shingo are both from Tokyo and have been training under Yutaka Higuchi, who helped Shingo's transfer to TCC, so they won't have much trouble training together in this circumstance as UtaShin had last year.

But when the time comes to go back to TCC, will she go? I'd assume Shingo wants to get back there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only limited knowledge about Ayumi, but training abroad would not be much trouble for her. She used to train in Michigan, coached by Shpilband, Camerlengo, and Krylova. According to this interview published by Waseda Sports, she applied to a Canadian university/Canadian universities to study Kinesiology and passed the entrance exam/exams. She chose Waseda because, at that time, it was best for her to balance study and her career as an ice dancer. She says that she chose the School of International Liberal Studies because she didn't have much choice as her Japanese skills weren't enough to receive advanced education, which means, I think, that she has no problem communicating in English.

It seems she attended high school in US according to her instagram posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the pandemic ceased to exist in JPN or what? More than ever I hope they will go bankrupt now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
