Hello everyone!

This is our first journal entry. We are really excited about our new website. We hope that all of our friends and family in Germany and the USA will like it and find it useful.
Our first skating season is over now, and we have started training the compulsary dances for next year (Midnight Blues, Silver Samba and Starlight Waltz) and getting ready for choreography with Pasquale Camerlengo in 2 weeks.

This year will be much more exciting for us since we are allowed to compete internationally. Last year we only began skating together in August, so this year we will have more time to prepare before competitions. Last season was a good start for us, with a bronze medal at the German nationals, even though I had been injured in both feet and knees (shin splints also, caused by skating in broken down skates!) We are definitely ready to go on to international competitions and be our best this season.

We will continue to update in both English and German when we have more interesting news.
Until then, you can look around our website, and don't forget to check out the link to an article about us recently published at Absolute Skating.

Thanks for reading, and we hope you like our website!
