Gold Medal Performing Arts — (Todd Eldredge, Julie Kirchen)

November 26, 2023 • # hr ## min

Figure skating is similar to gymnastics and even dance, where there is an aesthetic and athletic component to competition. This is a sport where we see incredible displays of athleticism, as well as beauty and grace. So Yasi and Steven wanted to learn more about the life and training of a competitive figure skater by talking to one of the best in U.S. figure skating history, Todd Eldredge. We are also joined by Athletes and the Arts founding member–and Todd’s skating prodigy–Julie Kirchen.

Guests:
Todd Eldredge: His World Championship title, six U.S. National Championship titles, six World Championship medals and having achieved three Olympic teams, are testament to his incredible technical skill, consistency, and intense work ethic.
Julie Kirchen: Athletes and the Arts founding member–and Todd’s skating prodigy.

Hosts: Dr. Steve Karageanes and Yasi Ansari
