Talk:Benjamin Agosto

Benjamin Agosto a Waldorf alumnus?

Benjamin Agosto attended the Chicago Waldorf School through Grade 8 and graduated the grade school, per the following note posted on the Mothering magazine discussion group for Waldorf Grads and how they're doing... on 2/22/2006. He attended other schools for high school to be closer to ice skating coaches. His mother was a kindergarten teacher at the school:

My friend from Chicago, Debbie Barford, sent out this story. She said it was okay to share on Mothering. <snip>

Chicago Waldorf Grade School alum, Ben Agosto, and his partner are the 2006 Olympic silver medalists in the Ice Dancing category. See the CWS newsletter for this week for a picture: page no longer available

Ben's mother, Miriam, was a CWS kindergarden teacher until they moved to the Chicago suburbs to be closer to his ice skating coaches.

I think that's an adequate citation. Unfortunately there's no place to put a citation footnote on a category. If there are no objections, I'll put the category link back. Merci, EPadmirateur (talk) 04:55, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Adding Ben's after competing accomplishments

I wanted to update Ben's page to include his accomplishments after his competitive career. I found these on IMDb. Now he is living in Colorado Spring not Arizona so I would like to update that too

Choreography Career

After his time in competitive figure skating, Agosto shifted his focus to choreography. He has created routines for various ice shows including Cirque du Soleil's "Axel" and "Crystal," "Battle of the Blades" season 6, and "Holiday on Ice: Believe" in collaboration with Christopher Dean. In addition, he's contributed choreography for four distinct Disney On Ice productions and group routines at events such as the US Figure Skating Championships and Skate America Exhibition Galas.

Commentating Endeavors

Following his competitive years, Agosto began working as a commentator for NBC, with a particular focus on ice dance. His contributions aim to provide clarity on the intricacies of top-level figure skating performances, highlighting the challenges and points of interest in specific routines. He has been part of the commentary team for events like the 2018 Winter Olympics, World Championships, several Grand Prix events internationally, and US National Championships. Through this role, Agosto offers audiences a deeper understanding of the sport.[1]
