Nathan Chen

Wondering if Sam Chouinard choreographed this Dream by Imagine Dragons/Nemesis program for Marjorie Lajoie and Zachary Lagha?

https://youtu.be/-c3dTdUrlU8?t=157

They are mainly choreographed by Haguenauer. With some other choreo done by Cournoyer, and MF.


ETA: Rewatching that video though, I have to :laugh: because his costume is an exact copy of Moir's MR FD costume except in maroon. :palmf:

Thanks Ic3Rabbit for the info! Wondering if you know if Sam has choreographed a program for a singles skater before?

I didn't notice that about his costume - but now that you point it out :)

I can't recall for sure.
 
programs that Sam Chouinard has choreographed:

He also choreographed H/D's Make Me Feel exh from SOI https://www.instagram.com/p/Bjrmfi7lLc7/
and
my favorite V/M exh "Good Kisser" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh0I5F9nE_E

ETA: He also choreographed S/B (pairs) SP this past season to Lorde's "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iekir3SqKTg
 
Oatmella, yes that's the Jason Wong I was referring to, and I don't think he looks like Nathan now. Jason's in his early 30s, but I meant Nathan sort of looks like him when he (Jason) was a competitive skater many years ago. :)
 
I'll just add that much of the choreo that Sam does is usually very unique with sharp movements and tons of swag.

Nathan is in perfect hands here.
 
"Good Kisser" is really exquisite. Cannot recall how many times I've watched it, but many times, at least a hundred. :D Also, if you look at the Roxanne documentary, you can see that Sam created a lot of movements for Moulin Rouge, you can see how V/M practice their sharp movements on the floor. They talk about the fact that he has learned to skate and put a lot of moves on the ice that were not seen before. I like it when he says "lets push the boundaries."

I like that swagger a lot.

Can't wait to see what he can do with Nathan. :hap10:
 
so Nathan's October schedule so far:

10/6: Japan Open
10/19-10/21: Skate America
week of 10/22: Yale midterm week?

10/5 - 10/7 is Yale Family weekend, so he could leave for Japan probably Thursday night?

October 16, Tuesday 11:00 pm Fall break starts. If he has no class on Monday, maybe he can go back SoCal over the weekend?

Yale 2018-2019 calendar

The week following SA is mid term

@shine, it was 309k last week. Quite some people unfollowed last week. There was a boost between olympics and worlds, I guess mainly from casual viewers. Now it seems it is going back where it was since it is off-season, and he doesn’t really engage that much as hhh said.
 
JO isn't even a real competition I don't know why Nathan would want to take time away from school for that. Does Yale even care? Does Nathan?

I am puzzled as well. Even JO falls on the family weekend, think about the travel and jet lag, and SA in two weeks.

Maybe he just loves going to Japan?
