Kristi's younger daughter Emma began skating last year. Her coach is ... Rudy Galindo.
Here they are (coach and pupil) at the opening ceremonies of U.S. Nationals last year.

I see Rudi isn't neglecting her hand positions. Middle finger depressed, forefinger and pinky elevated, like a proper ballerina.
Thank you for the other pics, Mathman, and especially for this delightful one.
It would be a lovely photo no matter who the coach and pupil happened to be -- and it's very sweet icing on the cake that he is a national champion and she is the daughter of his former partner, who is an Olympic champion.
Yup, she's been back living in the Bay Area for years.
sandi, I see that you live in San Jose. I posted the recent Yamaguchi/Galindo pair pose because I am not-so-secretly hoping that they are practicing for a special appearance at a show. Absolutely wild speculation on my part, but please let us know if you hear anything ...
Although I am not one of the mods, I also will take this opportunity to give you an unofficial welcome to GS.
