Marie-Pierre
After being awarded Champion of France with Frederic Lipka in 1993, Marie Pierre started a solo career on the ice. She came 7th at the World Championships in 1995 and 14th at the Winter Olympics of Lillehammer and then had to put her career on hold for an operation. She started back again in 1997 and qualified once again for the World Championships. But she still preferred couple skating.....

 

'I started skating at the age of nine. My preference has always been for couple skating. I stopped couple skating after many French and international solo titles because my partner Fred Lipka wanted to stop skating. I continued competing solo but after Minneapolis I realised that I couldn't go any further and I decided to retire from competition. Then at the start of the year I rang Nicolas to ask him if he wanted to skate together. Going back to sport has been very hard but I have no regrets. The adventure has only just begun.....'
