I read through my facebook feed quickly yesterday and I really thought it said they were teaching the split which puzzled me. Totally didn't see the word "lift". Now it makes sense

Ooh, Charlie choreographed a Romeo & Juliet free program for Vincent Zhou. I can see that music suiting Meryl and Charlie so well, I can't wait to see how he's translated it into a program for a jumping bean like Vincent. And will there be dramatik voiceovers? Juuuuuliiiieeett!!!

It seems like he worked with Marina on the program - I hope they talk about that dynamic in the next article! Going from student and coach to partners isn't always easy, esp when they're both so opinionated! Was it:40beers: or :argue:?

Can't wait to see it as well! Vincent could be the sleeper this year. No doubt!

LOTF2017 has ended - it has been a great success, like last year. People went crazy for all dancers, in an endless flow of love from stage to audience and back.

From last curtain call - Meryl and Charlie

Charlie is still in Japan, working with Takahito Mura and.... the boy could be Koshiro Shimada, sorry I'm not at all sure. They are at Okayama Rink where Mura and Shimada train.

I'm glad to hear LOTF was a great hit again, since we didn't get as many goodies this time. :encore: I wonder if the US tour will be the last hurrah or if they'll go back in 2018? Dai is in such demand for other things.

Looks like Charlie is with Mura and Yuto Kishina. Does the man ever take a break?

If they decide to come back in 2018, it would be good to see a revamped show. It seems like this one was more of an enhanced version of the one in 2016. It looks like Cheryl/IMG/Japan have found the magical formula that makes this show extremely successful, so they can definitely count on a similar format working out again.

Skaters represent!

Meryl and Charlie join Michelle Kwan, Tara Lipinski, Maia Shibutani and Alex Shibutani as members of the LA2024 Athlete Advisory Commission. Amongst skaters of the current and most recent generation, Meryl, Charlie, Maia and Alex have always been consistent over the years in making it a priority to truly dedicate their time to causes and be ambassadors for the sport.

Maia and Alex just attended the Spiderman Movie premier as ambassadors for the LA2024 bid.

D/W will be in Intimissimi on Ice in Italy in October.

*screeches* Oh man, I LOVE it when they do European ice shows!!! Costumes, group numbers, live music - it's all so Spectacular Spectacular.
The extraordinary presence of Andrea Bocelli will perform live during their performances, while costumes will be designed with the special contribution of Chiara Ferragni, the most renowned italian fashion influencer.

Big news this year, for the first ever: the biggest open-air lyrical theatre in the world will freeze right in the middle, with a unique and incomparable 360° vision that will take your breath away!

Not-retirement just gets better and better.

I'm loving Charlie's #Presidential tweet series today. Is there a mic drop emoticon? It's clear he's paid attention all these years in college. :COP:

Thanks for sharing. And here's a link:

One proviso though, no matter how Progressive and otherwise great a leader Woodrow Wilson was, he was also unfortunately one of the worst racists to attain the U.S. presidency. Sad but true. Interesting words from Richard Nixon who scarifyingly was at least a more productive president than Trump, albeit Nixon was also his own worst enemy with needy psychological issues.

Damn, I've been notified that my LOTF show has been cancelled (officially, "postponed due to scheduling issues"). Sales don't look great - I hope the tour isn't in trouble.

In which city was your show? Tickets are still on sale for the one I'm attending, so I'm hoping that means it's still a go.
