I Think Skating Helped Me Find Myself.

Giving Life To Music Through Skating Was Something I Wanted To Be Known For

We Wanted To Be Achievers, But Being An Achievers Didn't Mean That You Stopped Being A Woman.

When I Was On The Ice, In The Lights, With The Music And The Motion, There Was A Certain Kind Of Flirtation That Gave Great Energy And Expressiveness To My Performance.

When The Going Got Tough, I Really Had To Draw On Many Of The Same Competitive Instincts I Did When I Was Skating. I Really Had To Put My Head Down And Stay Positive. I Had To Fight.

I Think Exercise Tests Us In So Many Ways, Our Skills, Our Hearts, Our Ability To Bounce Back After Setbacks. This Is The Inner Beauty Of Sports And Competition, And It Can Serve Us All Well As Adult Athletes.
