<h1>Episode Notes</h1> <p>I sat down with Stéphane Lambiel and Christopher Trevisan during 2024 Skate America, where they were accompanying their students Deniss Vasiljevs, Koshiro Shimada, and Sofja Stepcenko. Stéphane Lambiel is a two-time World Champion and the 2006 Olympic silver medalist. He continues to perform in shows around the world, as well as working as a choreographer and the head coach of the Skating School of Switzerland. Chris Trevisan is the director of the Skating School and was previously a guest on the Future of Figure Skating (episode 14). Last summer, the school celebrated its 10th anniversary with a unique show, L’Apprenti Sorcier. In this conversation, Stéphane and Chris discuss the values that underpin their work and their hopes for innovation in the sport. </p> <p>Youtube: <a href="https://youtu.be/rz91WULCils" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/rz91WULCils</a></p> <p>Transcript: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SV5VRq4nnBupeMpvPgcHGV2rKZs89RWiXd5LWN9wbj4/edit?tab=t.0" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SV5VRq4nnBupeMpvPgcHGV2rKZs89RWiXd5LWN9wbj4/edit?tab=t.0</a></p> <p>You can follow Stéphane on Instagram @slambiel, and Chris at @christophertrevisan.
