Some of My Favorite Ice Dance Programs..

My favorite ice dance free program this season is Vincent done by G/P but I also have some favorites from other seasons and other ice dance teams. These programs are among my favorites. Of course, I love everything T/D did, but three are outstanding.

From the past:

B&K's Riverdance
T&D 's Bolero & Hat Trick
Meryl & Charlie's Samson & Delilah
The Shibs' Fix You
Piper & Paul's - Sgt. Pepper short dance (2016)
The Kerr's Scottish Dance
Maddie & Zach's Hallelujah short dance (2016)
Chock & Bates' Under Pressure
Hawayek & Baker - Liebestraum
Capellini & LaNotte - The Immigrants, Life is Beautiful, (& many of their exhibition programs - especially Dance of the Hours)

So many I like/love from this season, that's a whole other topic for me!

With Ice Dance, I have a massive soft spot for OTT - Nelli Zhiganshina & Alexander Gazsi are probably my favourites (Two from the Grave is the first ice dance I even saw). And Jana Khokhlova & Sergei Novitski's Night on Bald Mountain is a total guilty pleasure

I can still recall seeing Torvill and Dean's Bolero as a child, so memorable it must be called (especially given my lack of memory) though I've never found a good video of it (we really don't realise how lucky we are now...)

2016 was a good season for ice dance with some of my favorite programs:
P/C to build a home (and I also liked their Charms SD)
S/S fix you
H/D hallelujah

Grishuk/Platov Memorial Requim

Honestly? Pretty much any time Davis and White stepped on to the ice!!! Always loved Capellini and La Notte.
