dancing toward greatness

The Canadian Ice Dancing couple Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir skated their way to victory with an inspiring performance! Even though the US had 2 couples fighting for the gold, I couldn't help but cheer for Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir. They have an ease and fluidity that is captivating. Virtue, 20, and Moir, 22, began skating together when she was seven and he was nine years old. When asked abouttheir early years Tessa admitted that the first time she saw Scott she had a crush on him. I found a quote that summed up Scott's feelings. "Something changed in my life when I got to hold the hand of a cute girl. It made more sense to hang out with a cute girl than 19 other guys."

They have been skating ever since and were able to win gold right along side their training partners Meryl Davis and Charlie White, who received the silver.
