Brian's part of the French Federation now? Did we know that before?

Yes, it's known since september but with DALS, it was a little unremarked

It isn't the original costume, it's a new which was changed ;) (it's written in an article about Poitiers). The original is in a museum. In the same article, it's written that the program is "reworked"

Video : Brian makes some freestyle ;)

An interview with Brian about his first year of retirement:

http://www.lanouvellerepublique.fr/...-suis-demande-ce-que-j-allais-devenir-2308606

Brian was relieved of ending his career with a good performance at the OG. After that, things have been a whirlwind for him: first, DWTS, then galas in Russia and Japan, without a single day off.

He still takes training (for galas) quite seriously, but he feels much more cool and relaxed now, because the life of a competing skater is so demanding. He forces himself to train regularly , but he doesn't care anymore about his weight.

He's not been in Poitiers from September till January. He thought he would enjoy his family, and he couldn't. On the other hand, his new life feels very exciting and interesting, more so because it won't go on like this for long.
He intends to skate in exhibitions for 2-3 years. Life on tour is very tiring, moving from town to town, sleeping on the bus... but he knows he'll miss that when it's over. Furthermore, it pays well.

After that, he wants to become a coach, He's already started the course, it will take three years because of the galas [he's required to teach 1,200 hours before he can obtain his brevet], he wants to open a school in Poitiers and help people skate there like he was able to do.

He didn't attend any competitions this year, but he rooted for his teammates and he wishes success for all of them.
 
Thanks bartlebooth. Interesting how he went from wanting to compete in pairs to this in just a matter of months. But it sounds like he is someone who listens to his body and knows when enough is enough. I'm not sure everyone does...:slink:
 
Thanks for the translation! It's good to hear that Brian is doing well, and is happy.:)
 
Tomorrow, Brian (and Nathalie) will dance with the others dancers of the french DWTS during a concert called "Stars 80". 45 000 people are waited in the stadium (it's in the "Stade De France"). The concert will be broadcast on live on TF1 at 21.00 (french hour)

Thanks for the vids! The waltz - do you mean he did a solo waltz - not the group number? Because that would certainly be unexpected - anyway, I don't doubt that vid of that will turn up as well.

(Note on the group number: I really must say that I am not a fan of the costume designs of this show... I'm referring to the ladies' "dresses".)
 
I talk of the group numper. The song is called "Waltzes from Vienna", so he's supposed to dance a waltz
