Intervista da world figure skating

Tell us a few about your team?

Guillaume Cizeron: In these ten years that we are skating together we know each other perfectly, we know our qualities, difficulties and we know how we work. So it is easy to work like this, when you know the people you are working with. We skated at the same arena since we were very young.

Gabriela, how could you describe your partner?

Gabriella Papadakis: He has a lot of qualities as a skater. We are also good friends besides our ice performances.

This past season was your first at a senior level. Was it difficult for you?

Papadakis: It was our choice; we wanted to skate in senior competitions this year. Yes, I can say it was difficult but at the same time it was a big experience for us. We are satisfied with this year.

Cizeron: No it was not so difficult, it was other. But we have to improve what we always improve every year. We wanted to make better programs to perform in competitions. We had no big goals for this season, it was just the first year and it was experience to go as far as we can.

What are you plans for the next year?

Cizeron: We will work more; we learned a lot this year about seniors, about big competitions. We have seen other couples and learned to work with them. We are going to work with different people to make our new programs.

Papadakis: In the next season we would like to continue what we already started, we would like to be better.

Cizeron: We already have lots of projects. Next year the short dance is the Spanish flamenco. That is why we want to work in Spain, in Madrid. We will work with flamenco dancers, I mean on the ice and off the ice. It would be funny and we are going to learn this dance.

Any ideas for the free dance?

Papadakis: We don’t know yet. We will continue to do something original.

Cizeron: Now we are listening lots of music, classical music…we will see.

Are you also studying together in Lyon?

Both: No!

Papadakis: I study French literature at the university. I love it. I have not special favorite books because I like lots of them.

Cizeron: I study art. I will be a designer, maybe for clothes. I will make a choice later.

A designer? So can you imagine that you are creating costumes for your programs?

Cizeron: Yes, why not? I always give ideas because I like to draw. We always choose our costumes together, give an opinion on each other’s outfit and make the decision with our coaches.

What about your free time?

Papadakis: We try to have a free time! On holidays we like to travel.

Cizeron: Mostly we are sleeping in the free time!-)

What can you say about this year’s tour “Stars sur Glace”?

Cizeron: We don’t make this tour in every city. We are tired but our team is more tired than we are because they did it every day. All those shows! It is the first time we do it. It’s a great experience to perform every night.

Nathalie Pechalat and Fabian Bourzat are retired. What do you think about the future of French ice dancing?

Cizeron: I think they did really a great career. We try to do the same and we try to be better, if it’s possible.
