Two-time World Figure Skating Champion (2007 & 2011) Miki Ando (from Japan) will be skating here at Kent Valley Ice Centre Saturday January 28th, 4:00-5:30pm and Sunday January 29th, 1:30-2:30pm. The public is invited to drop by and watch her practice sessions (videos and photos are not allowed.)
Miki Ando is the first and only female skater to complete a quadruple jump successfully in competition. She accomplished this at the 2002–2003 Junior Grand Prix Final in The Hague. Miki started to skate at the age of nine. Her first triple jump, a Salchow, came two years later. She was the first female skater to land a quadruple jump, also a Salchow, in competition. Her first quad was performed at the 2002 ISU Junior Grand Prix Final in the Netherlands when she was barely 15 years old. Among Miki’s early competitive highlights are winning her two Japanese National Ladies Senior titles in 2004 and 2005, her bronze (2002), silver (2003) and gold (2004) medals at the World Junior Figure Skating Championship, gold medal at the 2004 Junior Grand Prix Final, and her fourth place finish at the Senior Worlds in 2004, weeks after winning the World Junior title. In 2006-07, Miki finally realized her great potential in winning the ISU World Championship. Under coaches Nikolai Morozov and Yuko Monna of Ice House in New Jersey, Miki skated a stunning, near-perfect performance in front of a screaming crowd in Tokyo.
Miki had a solid 2009-10 Olympic season, earning fourth place finishes at the both the Olympics in Vancouver and the World Championships in Turin, by working on perfecting triple-triple combinations and cleaning up her spirals and step sequences. |
