Welcome!

Welcome to my blog: Queens of the Ice! This blog is about the current two top women in the sport of figure skating, Mao Asada and Yuna Kim. Mao Asada is from Japan. She is the 2008 World Champion. Yuna Kim was born in the Republic of South Korea, but she currently trains in Toronto, Canada. She is the current reigning world champion of 2009. Both of these young women are beautiful and powerful on the ice. They are rivals, but also friends. Mao and Yuna have pushed the technical side of the sport to the next level, setting the bar higher for others to follow. Figure skating will never be the same again! It will be exciting to watch them in the coming year. Follow my blog as we enter the Olympic year, where Mao and Yuna will battle it out in Vancouver for Olympic gold!
