Interview with Fumie Suguri, July 15 2008 at the Ice House, Hackensack, NJ
<<Hear Fumie pronounce her name>>
Japanskates: Let’s talk about the practice, the format of the practice and what brings you here to NJ?
Fumie Suguri: I was in Russia last year for one year but first time my agent suggested to me to have Nikolai do choreography. But, first time I never thought that way. But last year I didn’t get very good result so my agent suggested why don’t I take lessons from Nikolai cause Nikolai had made a lot of champions and he knows how to do things. So then one month I really thought about it. Every time I decided for myself the choreographer and coaches, that something sometimes I thought not working very well. So maybe sometimes I need to follow things that other people suggested. And then I decided I ‘ll try this one.
