There were two small ones I got invited to, and the big ones: Art on Ice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Engelberg (December 26, 2023)<\/strong>  \u1392 <br>The invitation arrived out of the clear blue sky to skate in Engelberg, right after Christmas. Engelberg is such a nice place, surrounded by beautiful mountains, and the show was a cozy little event with a surprisingly big number of skaters, and the ice quality was very good. I skated both my SP and FS, and of course I wanted to skate them clean. I always want to skate clean, and this mindset always makes me nervous, and then I can\u2019t skate clean. \ud83d\ude02 After the show I spent a few days there with my family, enjoying the time together and relaxing. I\u2019m really grateful for the invitation. I hope I can come again next year. \ud83d\ude0a<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Magic On Ice in B\u00fclach<\/strong> (March 3, 2024)<\/strong>  \u1392 <br>This year\u2019s theme was Movies. I was grateful that in B\u00fclach, skaters know each other so well, because this year the preparation was quite rapid. We didn&#8217;t have enough time to rehearse everything together as we used to do. But despite that, all went well in the end. My favorite program I skated was from The Greatest Showman, \u2018This Is Me\u2019, and if everything goes as planned, I will be able to publish that on my YouTube channel, so more people can watch it.<br><br>This year&#8217;s show was special to me. I don\u2019t really know how to write about it, but the whole time I was thinking about what if this is the last time I skate on this ice, with these people. I\u2019m a junior skater now, and I want to do everything I can to become the best skater I can be. My future looks less predictable than before. What if next year I won\u2019t be able to come, because I will have other obligations?<br>B\u00fclach will always be my home. It will always mean the years to me when I started to skate. No matter what my life will bring, I will cherish these memories forever. \u2665\ufe0f<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Magic on Ice in Sursee<\/strong> (March 24, 2024)<\/strong>  \u1392 <br>Magic on Ice must be a popular name for ice shows it seems. I was quite surprised when the invitation came, but when I saw that it fits into my schedule, I happily agreed to take part, because of the experience I hoped to gain from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I skated my two competition programs from the last season, the Earth Song (SP), and the SOS from Dimash. I love that song very much. \u201eSOS d&#8217;un terrien en d\u00e9tresse\u201c is definitely one of the bests of Dimash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding the experience I wanted to gain: I got it right away. According to the program my SP was scheduled, I prepared for my SP with my costume and starting pose, but the music they started to play was my FS music. \ud83d\ude05 This wasn\u2019t a competition to stop and complain, I just started skating my SP, then I tried to melt it into my FS choreo as smoothly as possible. I managed to change a bit of choreography and transfer from my short steps to my long steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The jumps weren\u2019t the best I ever did, but at least I tried my best. Looking back, it was kind of fun, but definitely challenging.<br><br>The audience was quite nice, although a bit quiet. A few hundred people, maybe. They were clapping, but I couldn\u2019t tell if they really enjoyed what they saw. It was quite different from the B\u00fclach audience.<br><br>I was sad that I didn\u2019t get to see anything from Sursee as a place. But the ice rink was quite nice. This sentence might sound weird, but it was unusually cold there. \ud83d\ude09<br>I was really happy to perform, and I hope I will get invited in the future again.<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\u2619<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ice shows in Switzerland. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":635,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=633"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":637,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633\/revisions\/637"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/635"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanweiler.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
