Our Trip To Kazakhstan - Denis Ten and Friends

Сәлем! Last month we spent an unforgettable week in Kazakhstan. This was our first time visiting Denis Ten's home country. Denis was one of the first friends we made at our first Junior Grand Prix back in 2008. While this was the third year of #DenisTenAndFriends, this was the first year our schedule allowed us to skate in the show. It took us 28 hours, but it was definitely worth it. Almaty is a stunning city and the crowd was so welcoming and enthusiastic. The production of the show was impressive and a highlight for us was skating to a live orchestra for the first time. We spent time with old friends and had the opportunity to get to know skaters we've always admired. Many special memories were made with wonderful people. Denis was a fantastic host and his "friends" left feeling more like family. Like Denis says, Kazakhstan is a very beautiful country. We can't wait to return. We hope you enjoy this video highlighting our experience!
