I want to practice them for the next season, or even for the Olympics - to be the program have already been practiced: set steps, spins, elements, transitions... Beforehand sew costumes. That is, fully prepared."

Sometimes, with my previous programs, I got to the point that people would like that I continue to skate them. For example, there was a program which was devoted to Nijinsky. So, if these programs will be unique, then why not to skate them further? And they are really new for me: according by the images, movements, the choreography..."
