Ice dancing in Sochi by kamilla

On the ice in the ice palace arena in Sochi, ice dancers gracefully glided across the floor, filled with emotion and anxiety for their future .Each one of the final 5 dances were glorious, but what Meryl Davis and Charlie White (American gold medalists for ice dancing in Sochi) had was they were so professional, as they walked on the ice they just owned the ice .the American team was also very expressive and innovative with their lifts.

The Russian team was fierce and sharp with their moves, and were very good at complicated lifts and twizzles.

The Canadian team trained with the American ice dancing team, so they knew who their competition was and what they needed to do to win .they also were very acrobatic and were very synchronized even though in the ice dancing qualifying round Tessa Virtue (Canadian ice dancer) missed a spin and was not synchronized with her partner( Scott Mior). Later on, she managed to turn that around in the finals.

The Italian team Anna Cappellini and Luca Lanotte executed their lifts wonderfully and were very in control of their bodies and they looked like they were having a great time.

The Japanese ice dancers Cathy Reed and Chris Reed are brother and sister so I think that they had a special bond on the ice and off the ice, I think that helped them as a team be stronger when they were skating.

Overall it was amazing to see people are so determined and can do such amazing on the ice and off it. But at the end of the day it is not about who won or lost it is about what you accomplished and that you tried to your best ability.
