I am curious as how much freedom the naturalized skaters have in terms of coaching, training facilities and choreograph. Do they still train in the states?
Zhu Lin and Zhang are all still training in US with their original coaches. When they go to China for competition, they trains in Chen Lu's rink but also with their own coaches. In a video posted by Chen Lu, she helped a little bit with the arm details but not technical part. They also get funds for their training and choreograph.
Angel Li has always been training in Shanghai so her situation is a little bit different but she also stays with her original coaches.
