I was invited to Anjelika and Pasquale’s house last night!

We had dinner and afterwards,
Pasquale and I talked about the music for my free program.
Right now Massimo and I are working on the short,
and work on the free will start next month.
I’m glad we had the chance to sit down and talk about it!
Me in Pasquale’s office.
I had a day off today.
I went with Ryuichi and tried rock climbing for the first time.
Ta-da!
So, h-high!! Lol.
I was taught different knots and how to descend,
and now I’m ready for the beginner routes!
I actually have a really weak grip
so it was impossible for me to get all the way to the top…
Ryuichi made it up there with ease!
The results of pairs training!
The bouldering area.

I really didn’t look this composed during the climb. Lol.
But it was a lot of fun!
I want to climb higher next time!
Anyway, my hands are all tingly right now.
I went out to eat with everyone!

Hm?
Is this Japan?
…since almost everyone here is Japanese. Lol.
Good times!
We got really into talking about things that happened behind-the-scenes during ice shows.
Well, what should I do this weekend~
Although it was cold yesterday,
this morning we were greeted with this beautiful blue sky!!
Perfect weather for BBQ!!
Chef Kozuka preparing the meat.



Thank you Chef Kozuka for manning the grill.
Topped it off with big roasted marshmallows.
YUM!

We finished up with the Prince Ice World Nagoya shows last week!
Thank you to everyone who came to see us.
Aaaand now
I’m currently in Detroit.
Of course I’m here to get new choreography, but I’m also hoping for the chance to refresh myself since it’s just been so hectic right after WTT.
A chance to cleanse the body and clear the heart.
Switching between work and relaxation,
let’s do this♪
Thank you everyone for your interest in Howa Sports Land Festa.
6/9 will be the exhibition held in the newly renovated rink,
and 6/10 will be Nagakubo-sensei’s lecture.
A lecture from sensei is a rare sight~! Lol
We look forward to hearing from you!
I took part in a show taping recently!

With the hair and make-up team Ishii-san and Tsuchibashi-san.


With Ahn Mika-san and Ted-san and MomoKuro’s (Momoiro Clover Z) Kanako-chan after filming.
I’m new to this, but thanks to the cast, it was a lot of fun!
Thank you so much.
I’ll provide more information about the program and air date sooon.
What did everyone do during GW (Golden Week)?
For me, I participated in Prince Ice World in Yokohama!
It was so much fun meeting so many skating fans.
This year, I got to collaborate with the PIW team and my favorite violinist, Furusawa Iwao-san.
For the last show, I was able to collaborate with Furusawa-san for Ladies in Lavender. Being able to collaborate like this is one of the greatest moments for a skater!
During rehearsals the day before the last show, I was so nervous for the actual performance, I kept twitching restlessly… lol.
But, I’m so so thankful to have had this wonderful opportunity!
Thank you so much!
I love blueee.
As always, thank you so much.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Miki, and she gave me this beautiful bag for my birthday♡
When we finished with the first half of the shows, we had one day off!
I went to Canal Cafe in Iidabashi to relax.
And then, I went to EXILE’s concert!
My first time seeing EXILE!
My first concert!
My first time at Tokyo Dome!
It was a lot of firsts. Lol.
Like skating, seeing something live is definitely the best!
It was so much fun.
I wanted to dance. Lol.
It gave me so much energy
to get through the rest of the PIW shows!
That was my perfect GW~
Konnichiwa!
I have some news to share.
Along with the opening of the newly renovated Howa Sports Land skating rink, we’ll also be hosting an open house, Howa Sports Land Festa.
I will hold an exhibition on 6/9.
Nagakubo-sensei will hold a lecture on 6/10!
Please check out the Howa Sports Land website for more information!!
If you’re interested in participating, please send us a postcard or email.
We look forward to hearing from many of you!!
Yesterday was the skating federation’s commendation ceremony.
Here are the three sisters.
From the same generation!
It’s been a long time since all three of us took a picture together!

We always have the most fun when we get together♪
Good work everyone~
I wrote a blog this morning about the first version towel being on sale, but I was just told they are now all sold out.
Thank you for buying!
Sorry for those who aren’t able to buy one…
