Their music spans the generations and hearing it you want to dance right away. Most of all, the group was founded 50 years ago and it’s still up to date with everybody talking about them. You see them everywhere.”</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">However, the team doesn’t just want to focus on “rock ‘n’ roll and leather” as Pechalat put it, but on “the hippies and the groove” and “peace and love” of the 70s.

We have changed all our lifts, as well as the spin, the twizzles, and the diagonal steps. We have decided to do less shows in order to be ready earlier for the season. We will perform our programs at their best in China for sure.”</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">At the 2012 World Figure Skating Championships, the French felt that the gap between them and the dominating teams of Canada’s Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir and USA’s Meryl Davis and Charlie White became smaller.</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">“That was really a boost for us,” said Bourzat, “because until then, we had to do our best knowing that we could not go higher up anyway to catch them. The only thing that could happen to us was that we could be overtaken by the people behind us.”</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">The French now feel that they are in a good position in terms of being pushed from behind, while at the same time, the Americans and Canadians are not untouchable.</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">“This motivates us to go higher, to give it our all,” said Bourzat.</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">Pechalat confirmed that this feeling is a new motivation for the couple.</p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; margin-top: 10px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.4em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">“We once said that we were at our maximum, that the best we could do is to save our placement,” she recalled. “But now we think that maybe in two years, maybe little by little, we can come closer.

This is reinforced by hard training to be at our best physically from the beginning to the end of the season.”</p><br><br>http://www.goldenskate.com/2012/09/pechalat-and-bourzat-find-their-groove/
