Here is how we started as a Professional Adagio Pair Team.

We met during a show in Les Arcs 2000 (France) in February 2009, directed by Yves Pierre Danton (performer in Holiday on Ice, Le Lido, ...). For this show, Maxime was Principal Pair and Solenne was Principal Soloist.

Solenne learned the basis of the Adagio Pair Skating (Detroiter, Platzer, Neck Spin, One Ankle, Foot Lift, Sit Lift, Arch, ...) in January 2009 with Ian Jenkins (world champion, performer in Europa Park, Le Lido, ...).

As we both wanted to make a career in ice shows, we decided to do a test together which was successfull.

We both obtained a contract in Europa Park and decided to train together and be able to perform in the show as Understudy Adagio Pair Team. And we did it. The show director is Francis Demarteau (performer in Holiday on Ice, Le Lido, ... and famous choreographer).

We made the first time in show our number in July and it was a success. We did also a casting in June for the Parc Ast�rix as Principal Adagio Pair Team and we got the contract. We will perform there for the winter season 2009 (November to beginning of January). The show director is Lucie Stadelmann (performer in Le Lido).

We are passionately fond of our work and wish to perform as long as we can in shows. We are hard workers, motivated and love challenges. We are open to all proposals, whenever it is and wherever, so don�t hesitate to contact us.
