Road to a partnership: Hurtado & Khaliavin by Anne Calder, ice-dance.com

 

Quote

 

Hurtado explained that they wanted their Olympic year programs to be very special and related to Spanish language and culture.

 

“For the short [dance], we went with the groovy Latin rhythm of Carlos Santana. We hope it brings the public to dance and have a good time during those three minutes.”

 

“For the Free Dance, we chose ‘Don Quixote,’ but from the Spanish side of the story. It is about a couple in the streets of Spain who are in love, but her dad doesn’t want her to go with him because he is not wealthy. It is a love story.”

 

“We went to Madrid to work with the great Antonio Najarro to bring up an organic character and still keep the essence of the Quixote. It is a beautiful combination of Spanish and Russian culture we have made between classic ballet and flamenco. Hopefully people will remember it as ‘Hurtado-Khaliavin’s Quixote.’”

 

“Working with Antonio was amazing, and he inspired me a lot in only a few days. I’m very proud to represent such a rich culture this season,” Khaliavin added.

In July, Kirill Khaliavin was granted Spanish citizenship in Madrid. Olivia Smart, the new partner of Adria Diaz, also received her Spanish passport.

 

Since Spain will send only one ice dance team to the 2018 Olympics in South Korea and both new teams have met the citizenship requirements, competition will be fierce this season.

 

“It will be chosen from the result of two competitions: Golden Spin and Nationals, this being the tiebreaker in case there is one,” Khaliavin explained.

 

“As we see it, this is a competition with ourselves before anything,” Hurtado said. “What we want is to bring two good programs to the best of their potential. Hopefully, that will give us good results in the competitions we have planned. Of course Olympics are there, but also Europeans, Worlds, Nationals…a lot of strong events. We should be ready to deliver, and that’s our main goal. [We want to] keep growing, keep building, and show improvement.”

 

 

I'm not ready for fierce competition... :tumblr_inline_n18qr5AMus1qid2nw:
