1
Very few people retire at the age of 16.
2
Then again, few people have careers with as many twists as American figure skater Alyssa Liu.
3
After becoming the youngest U.S women's champion in history at age 13,
4
the phenom shocked the skating world when she abruptly quit a few years later.
5
Now 20 years old, Alyssa is back and a favorite to win gold at the Winter Olympics next month.
6
Her return to the sport was almost as surprising as her departure from it.
7
No one knew what to expect when she started training again,
8
but somehow on a Friday night this past March in Boston,
9
Alyssa Liu was leading at the World Championships with one performance to go.
10
She was the final skater of the night,
11
a world title hung in the balance.
12
Within seconds, it was clear she was up to the moment.
13
As Donna Summer's disco beat pulsated,
14
Alyssa Liu blissfully dashed around the ice,
15
weaving intricate jump combinations with artistic flair.
16
The sold-out crowd in Boston roared its approval.
17
In my spin, right before I hit my ending pose,
18
I saw everybody already standing up.
19
Oh, my God.
20
I was like, this is wild.
21
That was the most hype I've ever felt in my entire life.
22
It's a crazy sensation.
23
Alyssa Liu had seized the night.
24
She was the world champion.
25
You did it!
26
Her coaches, Philip DiGuglielmo and Massimo Scali, were overjoyed.
27
Did you guys see this coming?
28
No, no, no. A year after she stepped back on the ice,
29
she was at the top.
30
It's unheard of.
31
In our sport, it is.
32
It is.
33
Unheard of in women's figure skating,
34
because Liu has come back now as a grown woman.
35
You know what, that wasn't bad for how I feel.
36
A little edgier, bleached hair and more piercings,
37
but also a full seven inches taller than when she first broke through by winning the 2019 U.S.
38
Championship at 13.
39
She was still a child.
40
The 4'7 Dynamo needed a lift to ascend to the top of the podium.
41
Liu won another national title at age 14 and was hailed as the great American hope in figure skating.
42
I skated every day when I was like 13,
43
14, so it was a very abnormal childhood.
44
She says coaches told her when to practice,
45
what to wear, which music to skate to,
46
even how much to eat.
47
Was it a job?
48
Yes, yeah.
49
Especially as a kid, you know,
50
you don't really know what you want.
51
Skating feels more like a responsibility or a burden even.
52
Like this is what I have to do.
53
Yeah.
54
It was Alyssa's father who was the engine of ambition.
55
He was really in your business when you were younger.
56
Oh yeah, I mean it was basically his business.
57
It wasn't even really mine.
58
Arthur Liu had no skating background.
59
In his native China, he had organized demonstrations during the time of the Tiananmen square protests and was forced to flee.
60
He came to America with nothing.
61
Arthur built a law practice and a family in the bay area.
62
A single dad, he had five kids with the help of surrogates.
63
Alyssa was his oldest child and her figure skating career became his second full-time job.
64
I took her everywhere.
65
I took her to Japan to learn from the top coaches there.
66
I took her to How much do you think you spent to help her become the figure skater that she is?
67
I would say half a million to a million dollars.
68
Arthur!
69
I spared no money, no time.
70
Why?
71
I just saw the talent.
72
With so much at stake,
73
Arthur began cycling and recycling through coaches.
74
How many times did he fire you?
75
Um, me once.
76
I think three times.
77
Three times.
78
Once in person, two via text, I think.
79
Uh-huh.
80
Yeah.
81
Your services are no longer needed.
82
Some coaches tried to keep Arthur away from the rink.
83
But one afternoon, he just couldn't help himself.
84
Just one time, I sneaked into the ice rink.
85
Why?
86
Big jacket, sunglasses, head covered.
87
Entered the ice rink from the back, not from the front.
88
So I was sitting there up in the bleachers watching,
89
and I didn't like what I saw.
90
Standing around for 20 minutes,
91
skated around the rank a few times.
92
That's where my money was going.
93
And how did that go down?
94
We stopped working with that coach.
95
These stories make it sound like you were like this tiger dad who was all over her career and pushing her.
96
Is that fair?
97
Not quite.
98
Yeah.
99
Not quite.
100
I was a laissez-faire.
101
A laissez-faire doesn't, dad doesn't bring a radar gun to the skating rink.
102
Well, I mean, you know,
103
the radar gun is to measure her speed.
104
Alyssa says everything changed when the pandemic hit in 2020.
105
Her rink in Oakland closed,
106
allowing her to catch her breath.
107
I was like, wow, this is what a break feels like.
108
And then I was like,
109
I really like not skating.
110
The pandemic hits, most people are like,
111
oh, this is such a bummer.
112
Honestly, I was hoping, like, the rinks wouldn't open.
113
When rinks did open, Alyssa reluctantly returned to the ice.
114
She made the 2022 U.S.
115
Olympic team finishing sixth in Beijing.
116
But she'd had it with figure skating.
117
And then I was like,
118
yeah, I'm calling quits right now.
119
She did it on Instagram,
120
catching the sport by surprise.
121
So tell me about the decision to retire.
122
It was a crucial time in my life.
123
I was 16, and college was coming up.
124
I wanted to do so much.
125
I went to Nepal, and I trekked to Everest Base Camp.
126
Me and my friends would do tons of road trips.
127
Yeah, I mean, I was really just living it up.
128
I would say it was my best life.
129
At any point, are you like,
130
gosh, I kind of miss skating?
131
No. Not at all?
132
You're not thinking about it at all?
133
No, not a thought.
134
I deleted my Instagram, so I wouldn't see any skating.
135
No one ever brought it up,
136
so I never even had the chance to think about it.
137
But nearly two years into her self-imposed exile,
138
she secretly laced up her skates.
139
And did you tell your family you were putting your skates back on?
140
I mean, I wasn't planning to return to competition at this point.
141
I just wanted quick hits of dopamine, basically.
142
Soon, she wanted more.
143
She pestered one of her many former coaches, Philip DiGuglielmo.
144
And so I call up Philip and I tell him like,
145
hey, I think I want to go back to skating.
146
And I said, oh, that's fun.
147
And I thought like, oh,
148
you want to do collegiate competitions?
149
And she goes, no, I want to compete again.
150
And I said, let me call you back.
151
I go and I grab a bottle of red wine
152
and I open that bottle and I pour myself a really big glass.
153
And are you thinking this is a terrible idea?
154
This is a terrible idea.
155
Terrible idea.
156
Two and a half hours later of conversation with me trying to talk her out of it.
157
And everything I said, like,
158
oh, I said, you know,
159
other people have tried this and it was hard because they're older.
160
She goes, I'm only 18.
161
Alyssa made it clear on the FaceTime call,
162
if she came back, she would be in charge going forward.
163
I get to pick my own program music.
164
I get to help with the creative process of the program.
165
If I feel like I'm skating too much, I'll back down.
166
If I feel like I'm not skating enough, I'll ramp it up.
167
No one's going to starve me,
168
tell me what I can and can't eat.
169
Philip DiGuglielmo agreed with Alyssa's conditions.
170
It's really the stretch.
171
And brought back choreographer Massimo Scali.
172
It's like, bam.
173
I got my team.
174
I told you it was figure skating,
175
and then I told my dad.
176
And how did dad react when you told him that?
177
I mean, he was really happy.
178
He's a great father, you know.
179
I just didn't want him to be as invested in it as he was before.
180
When she said she didn't want you on the team anymore, were you hurt?
181
A little bit.
182
A little bit.
183
It's like I brought you up to U.S national titles.
184
Do you think Alyssa's a little bit of a rebel?
185
Yes.
186
Like her father?
187
I think so.
188
I really think so.
189
She is a very free spirit,
190
like me, in many ways.
191
God has a sense of humor, right?
192
Yes, absolutely.
193
In June 2024, Alyssa started training again full-time at her home rink,
194
the Oakland Ice Center.
195
The idea was to take it slowly to see where her comeback might lead, if anywhere.
196
At first, she was out of shape.
197
When you got back on the ice,
198
how long did you think it would take you to be a contender for a world championship?
199
Oh, never.
200
I never even considered that.
201
That was not the plan.
202
No. Guys, high five.
203
But her coaches saw the old magic reappear.
204
Oh, beautiful.
205
That was really crazy.
206
I don't even know what to say.
207
The jumps came back like that.
208
How amazing is that?
209
Oh, incredible.
210
And there was something different about the way she moved her body that was no longer a child.
211
I kind of don't like that the leg and arm both move together.
212
With her in charge, is she a better skater?
213
Oh, yeah.
214
100%.
215
What do you see?
216
For many years she was dropped off at the rink.
217
She was told what to do.
218
Now she comes in and it is all collaborative.
219
Mm-hmm.
220
I could like hold.
221
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
222
I like that.
223
I like that.
224
Her attachment to her coaches can be literal.
225
This harness and what looks like a fishing pole help reel her in before she falls.
226
But eventually they have to let her go.
227
No. Nah.
228
This is what it takes to become a champion.
229
Constant pounding.
230
I'm so tired.
231
In pursuit of perfection.
232
One more.
233
I saw that when you were training,
234
and they're like, okay, that's good,
235
and you're like, one more, one more.
236
Yeah, yeah.
237
You don't need somebody pushing you.
238
No, I have my own, like, determination.
239
My determination's, like, up there.
240
You're pretty scrappy.
241
I love struggling, actually.
242
You do?
243
feel alive.
244
Skating isn't Alyssa Liu's entire life anymore.
245
She's traded her ice princess tiara for a little freedom.
246
When you like pulled your skirt out like that, that was cute.
247
And room for expression.
248
Oh yeah, this is it.
249
What's unique about Alyssa's skating is her blend of jumping ability and alluring movement.
250
Do you view yourself as an athlete or an artist?
251
An artist, actually
252
but i i love being an athlete too i think it's really cool um i view competitions more as
253
like a stage for performing
254
there will be no bigger stage than next month's winter olympics
255
in italy where alissa will be a gold medal favorite no
256
american woman has won an olympic figure skating singles title in 24 years
257
Do you feel any kind of pressure that now I've got to do the Olympics and I need to win gold?
258
No. Actually, I'm really excited because my goal honestly is just to hype people up,
259
give them an experience whether it's negative or positive.
260
As long as people are feeling some strong emotions and anticipation,
261
I'm fine with that.
262
Thank you.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
