I actually prefer soothing music - and maybe that's the skater in me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Giving life to music through skating was something I wanted to be known for.
I'd like to consider myself a versatile skater and I like to skate to different kinds of music.
Classic music will always come across better on the ice because skating has such a rich history, rooted in tradition.
I'm really very glad that I had skating to be my love and my escape. I think that it always gave me something that made me feel good, and it was music, and it was peaceful, and not a lot of the other stresses of life.
I just try to touch people's hearts in a way through skating, so they're not just witnessing a performance, they're feeling a performance and they're a part of it.
What I love the most is getting on the ice and just popping in a fabulous CD and skating - all by myself, the rink completely empty, just me and the music.
Even now I can't describe why I love skating so much.
I love skating and sparkling and flying around the ice, and people clap for you. It's an amazing feeling.
I find music distracting - it takes me out of my head. What I love so much about skiing is the peacefulness.
I'm the type of skater that needs to stay upbeat and relaxed, open, because if I stay quiet, I get in my head, and then I start to think too much and start to doubt.
