(message) Rudy is such a hip Ice Dancer, but why? How does she have such flair and grace? Shee's like a ballerina displaying grace and beauty. Hoe did she get to the level she is at today? Was it a difficult road for her?

(reply) Rudy was probably born knowing how to dance--and possessing flair. He took ballet for many years to enhance his natural talent. Although he had a huge amount of talent from the time he first skated (at around age 6), disciplining and refining the skating part required hours, days, years of work. It continues to demand constant training and practice.
He has always loved skating, and it has often been his refuge from the "difficult road" part, much of which had little to do with skating.
