The thing is IF it IS threatening and you're beaten fair and square, then you're not the best team.This definitely shakes things up. I like it.
And, really, you have to earn your spot to go to the Olympics, no matter who you are. The partnership might look threatening to others on paper, but you never know how it will go until they actually skate and compete together... if indeed this is what is confirmed to be happening.
The thing is I would consider that above a basic level. But I guess it guess it comes down to what he's tried to present himself as and what one considers basic.well i have 11-12 years old students who are in grade 9 and 10 RCM... seriously, RCM is a marketing scam. ARCT is of pre-university level. Most people who do not even practice very much can get to grade 10 at the end of high school. He has not even finished the RCM program, nor did he finish his BMUS from a lower ranked (for music) University... Grade 9 means that he has never even reached the level to play a Beethoven sonata, a Bach prelude and fugue nor a Chopin Etude. This really is even below basic level.
well, where does your perspective come from? Among olympic athletes, Eric's musicianship is remarkable. From a professional musician, it is basic.The thing is I would consider that above a basic level.

well.. that will make great xmas parties at the MarcottesJulie Marcotte will be coaching them
Yeah, I found both Patrick Chan and Kamila Valieva's programmes a bit generic. There's already a glut of similar music in skating, probably because it's easy to interpret. Einaudi, Bosso, Max Richter, Cinematic Pop, Balmorhea, Armand Amar etc. all sound the same to me... I'm a layman in terms of modern music genres, not sure what to call this - classical pop? Minimalism? (But Glass is minimalist and I like some of his stuff )well, where does your perspective come from? Among olympic athletes, Eric's musicianship is remarkable.

That's basically what I'm saying.well, where does your perspective come from? Among olympic athletes, Eric's musicianship is remarkable. From a professional musician, it is basic.
I could be wrong, but I think I saw a post on her Instagram about how she was too nervous about C19 to coach.Meagan said she couldn't coach - I wonder if she just meant coach alongside Bruno (due to Vanessa/Eric) or for some other reason, she can't coach anywhere at all ?
"Meagan mentioned in her insta stories & in her recent post that there was some drama that happened when she tried coaching last season so she doesn't really feel able to do that right now."
She's also talked about drama.I could be wrong, but I think I saw a post on her Instagram about how she was too nervous about C19 to coach.
She is listed as a coach on Miura/Kihara's ISU bio though? They gave her a shout-out of sorts at WTT with props in the Kiss and Cry so I guess she had some active involvement.Meagan said she couldn't coach - I wonder if she just meant coach alongside Bruno (due to Vanessa/Eric) or for some other reason, she can't coach anywhere at all ?

I believe she said a bit ago that she has nothing to do with them right now. She was asked a question about them and didn't know the answer or the info ahead of time. She did say they have nothing to do with the drama though. (The drama probably being this new partnership but who knows what else. lol)She is listed as a coach on Miura/Kihara's ISU bio though?

It's grey, not black and white.As per the CBC Eric responds to Meagan here. I feel like I do understand both perspectives, but I do think it is weird that per his report, he decided to look for a new plan the moment he learned she was pregnant. Like, she did skate with him pregnant. I don't know. I see why both are right and wrong.
