Brian Joubert

Here's another new interview - a really good read! I forgot about his menagerie. :laugh: Also the way he talks about his former rivals, the "Class of 2006," is so charming. It's great that they are all close now.

I think Brian will be a superb coach.

Silly question - does he still live with his parents?
Thanks for the link! I think I love Brian even more if it still possible :love:
 
Love Brian. I am very happy for him. I hope he can help Romain and get French male figure skating back to a better place in Europe. Reading that so many of my favs are friends and having a blast touring all over the world together is so great. They are all so cute :)
 
So great to see how he has always managed to beat the odds and retain his ties to his home town of Poitiers. All the best to him as he coaches the next generation.

Who would have thought that one day Plushenko would give tips to Brian about triple axel? :laugh: It's very surreal if you remember their history. But I'm glad that they are such good friends now.

Just adorable - thanks for sharing! Plushy isn't doing quads just now, or he'd probably want to tempt Bian into doing those again as well... ;)
 
the highlight of the Snow King yesterday - shirtless Brian in the role of a shaman :luv17::love::bow::o:

Just quoting myself to correct an error in the above: Plushy is doing quads again, so who knows? Maybe Brian will be doing them again too?;)

@sugarpova - Were you there? Was it fun? Did you enjoy yourself?

(Note: If you've already talked about it in the Plush thread, then never mind. I'm "on my way" there now.)
 
^ ha Hopefully u read in Plu's thread:biggrin:

Btw Brian had a fan meeting here in SPb during the Snow King run (more about it here http://maisondejoubert.livejournal.com/)
Google translate
We agreed to meet in just a few hours before her because Brian did not know what his plans are for the day. Until I met in the lobby of the participants of the meeting, I did not notice that went behind Joubert and said in Russian: "Hello." With this pleasant surprise, and we started our meeting, which ended in an even more pleasant surprise. But it passed in a very fun atmosphere, all joking and laughing a lot, and most of all, Brian. Video no one had thought to remove, so the conversation writing from memory, here are a few words about what we talked.

About animals
Yes, a boa constrictor lives with Joubert in the bedroom, it is still small, but it is a special mini-rock, it does not grow longer than 2 meters. Along with the live snake in a bedroom even other snakes, Brian remembered their names and counted on the fingers and eventually issued - yes, 5 snakes. As for security reasons, as mentioned in a recent interview, this fiction journalist. About anything that Brian did not tell him. Rather, it is necessary to protect the snakes, not to have spread throughout the house. In general, in the bedroom they will be short-lived, for they will soon equip a special room-terrarium.
Cats newly born kitten 2, and now there are already 4! Brian showed us pictures of them - they're so cute and fluffy! And here at Hermes puppies will not. His breed is considered dangerous and is prohibited for breeding in France.

About the coach's work
Of course, our next question was about his new job. Brian dreams about how to educate and teach figure skating kids from an early age. With a child, which you learn everything myself, to work much easier - it's your technique, you brought up the habits and skills. And he knows and is ready to fulfill all your requirements. Not so with Roman. He went to an adult figure skater Joubert, the other technique, he was not used "plow" in the gym. They had a lot of work in the summer, to change many habits of Roman, and most importantly - his training schedule. Brian did not change his technique, at least, all at once. They will do it gradually, until Roman hard training and preparing for the upcoming difficult season.
Incidentally, an interesting fact. While Brian was speaking at the show in Russia, and Roman flew to America to Nikolai Morozov in Poitiers came Denis Ten. It was there that he decided to prepare for its next stage of the Grand Prix, which will begin on the day in Bordeaux.

Of the younger generation
With talk about Roman smoothly switched to all young people. Brian complained that the younger generation of the French national team is not very serious about their sport. They want the title, but are not ready for that in training flat out to its fullest. Therefore, their achievements are not encouraging, unfortunately ... But Joubert was going to change the approach and started with Roman. Let's see what they will achieve in the end.
Incidentally, an interesting fact. Recently FFSG tried to persuade Joubert's return to the sport. It is to encourage the younger generation to work better in order to increase their motivation, increasing competition in the team.

About the President
Coaching - that's exactly what Brian dreamed of retirement. And he will be happy if his plan to establish his own school in Poitiers skating will take place in reality. But he is also interested in working in the federation, it is even ready to run for president, but not now, but at least 10-15 years, when he gains experience and wisdom. We asked what he thinks about the chances of Didier Gayage the presidential elections in the ISU? Joubert said that Didier would be a very good president of the ISU, but his chances of being elected to the post are small, because of the trail of the old scandal in Salt Lake City.

About Dance
We asked if Brian does not plan to take part in a winter tour of "Dancing with the Stars" last year? He said that he was pleased to take part, if invited. But here it depends on what Katrina will be replaced with your new partner. If they reach at least the semi-finals, then invited him, not Brian.
We are told that in this project are also involved skaters dance, and in the last season Adelina Sotnikova took second place. And even showed him a few dance Adelina Gleb. Joubert came to a complete delight! And even outraged, why she did not win. Why, why ... why, why not beat Nathalie ... He just shook his head in silence ...

About roles in the show
He asked whether all of those present were on the show, and what our impressions? Of course, they were all, of course, everyone loved it! Particularly impressed with the new roles - ice and fire knight. I asked which of them we no longer remember? We are almost all longer liked the ice knight, or rather, not the character, but how it plays Brian, costume, music, dance, especially the step sequence, they perform three perfect sync! But to Brian somehow I prefer the suit and the role of the fiery knight. Maybe something we do not doglyadeli in this role? It must be said that the light in it put disgusting red suit with red spotlights merged into a solid red color. It was really hard at it something apart. We'll have to look closely in Moscow!

And Brian said that those who come to the show November 7 and 8, a surprise. Due to the fact that Tomas will not be able to ride in these two days, the role of the bandit leader will play it! And, as it turned out, Joubert played this role wonderfully, improvising and coming off on the ice myself enjoying the performances. Just look at his facial expressions as a thief in the photos from the last hire.

About Journalist
Contact Us journalist from France, who now lives in St. Petersburg. He is making a film about the show, I interviewed Bryan, and he is interested in everything connected with it. We asked him if he wanted to attend a meeting with Joubert's fan club? (With the consent of Joubert, of course) Of course, the journalist agreed, but too late to start and there was already somewhere closer to the middle of the meeting. Brian went to him myself, they briefly talked about something, and the journalist walked away. We ask - what are you, sent it back? He laughed and answered - yes, did they say we need outsiders in this almost private setting? Well, we did not argue about this :)

About Russian language
And Joubert surprised once again, asking if we could advise him well tested audiokurs Russian language. Brian even asked to attend a meeting of Italian, perfectly speaking in Russian, where she taught him. But she said that the university than, perhaps, a little upset Joubert. Imagine, he had a great desire to learn Russian! And as proof, goodbye everyone said "thank you" and "goodbye" in Russian!

But it was a little later, and before the farewell was something absolutely amazing and enjoyable! Joubert knows how to surprise, and every time it shows. Disappeared for a few minutes, he returned with an armful of red roses and gave each girl to attend the meeting, a rose, a kiss and words of gratitude for the devotion and love.

By the way, it was not a rose from the bouquet presented to him, our profit rose from a nearby flower shop and were fresh and perfect as our feelings for the beautiful!
Thanks to all who attended the meeting, and a special thanks to Natasha and Oksana Ponarin Shamanov for wonderful pictures!
Here we present only some of them, the entire album will be completely filled in our FB, as always.

I wanted to post this video here..but I had no time morning, thus you are ahead of me now ..:)

I was citing you, as it was in your post I found it.:) As ever, thanks for all the links you post, and the hard work you put in.:)
 
Brian is in Bordeaux with Romain for TEB... And even if he's not an official coach yet, he's listed as such in Romain ISU bio. So does that mean that we'll see him in the K&C with Romain? 😄 I really hope so!
 
Ponsart think to return to Paris because he misses his family. And Brian don't think to leaving Poitiers, so the situation looks like a bit tense between the two. They speak publicly about the situation and Ponsart said his preparation for the TEB was chaotic (Brian is not optimistic about the success of the programs)

Is this true? Just because he misses his family he wants to go back Paris? If it is true, I'm honestly very pessimistic about him achieving anything if he leaves Brian and goes back there. :disapp: If he wants to be successful, sacrifices have to be made. I hope he'll understand that.
