I had the very good fortune to attend the NHK Trophy 2019 in Sapporo, Japan this year, which was held in the Makomanai Sekkisui Heim Ice Arena, and took the opportunity to visit a city and area in Japan I’ve been dying to visit for years.
It’s almost time for the 2019-20 figure skating season, which means it’s officially past In The Loop’s one year anniversary! In the interests of full transparency, we’d love to share a quick update with you about what we’re aiming for this year.
