lengo, now 46, began gaining the experience he needed to make his dream a reality. He worked in Lyon, France, as an assistant to Muriel Bouch- er-Zazoui, the coach who led Marina Anissina and Gwendal Peizerat to 2002 Olympic gold, and built a reputation as a choreographer throughout Europe. In 2003, while creating a show in the Czech


Republic, he found romance with a former rival, Anjelika Krylova, the two-time Russian World ice dance champion (with Oleg Ovsyannikov).


Camerlengo followed Krylova to her home in Delaware and, for the next few years, worked in rinks throughout the East Coast. In September 2006, the couple moved to


the Detroit Skating Club (DSC) in Bloomfield Hills, Mich. Tey married in 2010 and have two children, Stella, 7, and Tony, 5. “Tere weren’t many students at first,” Ca- merlengo said. “Tere are a lot of other ice dance coaches in the area, in Canton [then-partners Mari- na Zoueva and Igor Shpilband] and Ann Arbor.”
