Utana and Masaya have just been announced to appear at both Stars on Ice Japan tour stops - after their contribution to Japan's Olympic team medal this is more than deserved!

2026 World Championships​

Ice Dance Official Practice​

#UtanaYoshida #MasayaMorita​

​

The #Utamasa pair wrapped up their first practice on the main ice with a positive feeling, saying, “We moved really well!” ​

Right after their Olympic team event , they headed to Canada to brush up their skills—working on their levels and expanding their range of motion ​

​

Even on a slightly smaller rink, their signature speed exploded and they got the thumbs-up from their coach ​

​

Having fun and aiming to score over 70 points in the RD ​

We want to give a performance where we do everything we can right now and feel that sense of accomplishment​

Good luck!

72.33 - finally getting the score they deserve for this RD! And a level 4 PSt. Congrats!

Their reactions along with Scott's and Cathy's in the K & C were brilliant.

2026 World Championships​

Ice Dance Free Dance​

#Yoshida Utana #Morita Masaya
​

“We gave it our all from start to finish ” Their first World Championships Free Dance They scored a personal best of 173.49 in the overall standings Amid thunderous cheers, they delivered a dynamic performance of “The Firebird ‍” After the performance, #Utamasa clasped hands tightly “We felt good about it, but there’s still room to grow,” they said, aiming for even greater heights ​

Finishing strong until the very end has given me confidence! I want to prepare thoroughly from the early stages and compete in top form​

I gained a lot of experience that will lead to future growth​

It's their highest ranking at worlds!
Congratulations!

With Scott and Cathy as coaches, I feel confident that they will be well prepared for the Golden Waltz next season.

Masaya has been invited to the Spring Garden Party hosted by the Emperor and Empress of Japan, alongside Riku, Ryuichi and Yuma! What a pleasant surprise, although it's a shame that Utana wasn't invited as well (or Kaori, Ami and Shun - or maybe they were all unable to attend? )

I uploaded UtaMasa's "I wanna dance" exhibition from yesterday's SOI Osaka broadcast:
