"It just seemed like the right way to end the season and a nice way to say goodbye to those two programs in particular."
Whether the duo will compete next season remains to be seen. Moir said they needed more time to decide future plans but hope "to find some clarity" while on tour.
"We want to gauge what fire we have to come back and compete or not, and evaluate our situation," Virtue said. "We owe it to ourselves to give it some time."

bevsmithwrites.wordpress.com/2014/03/03/the-nex...Virtue and Moir haven’t decided anything about their futures, meaning that they don’t know if they have the fire to continue on. Or if they don’t. They chat with each other in coming weeks to find the answer. They’ve been home for only a week. Moir has a cough and his voice sounds as if it’s coming from a hollow room.

читать дальшеThe 2014 Olympic silver medalists in dance will look to work with new choreographers and new ideas, after expressing disappointment about their long-time relationship with coach/choreographer Marina Zoueva, who neither marched in the opening ceremonies with the Canadian team, (opting for the American colours with archrivals Meryl Davis and Charlie White) nor attended the Canadian championships, which were at the same time as the U.S. championships.
There was no fallout from their very frank press conference. “I think some of the things we were honest about at that press conference [in Sochi] would come as no surprise to Marina,” said Virtue. “She was very aware of the situation. Any awkwardness that we feel now, we’ve been feeling for a little while anyway.”
Immediately after the closing ceremonies, the top two dance teams travelled to Moscow and did two skating shows. With the pressure of competing against each other off, Virtue and Moir and Davis and White spent time with each other in a ‘carefree, friendly environment,” Virtue said. They talked about their experiences. Virtue said they probably talked more in one day than they had over the past two years. “That was a nice way to end that chapter with them,” Virtue said.
For the next phase of their career, Virtue and Moir will be on the road, without the need or the possibility of having a home base and a coach. “But we are looking forward to working with some new personalities,” Moir said. “It’s a good time for us to branch out and work with some different choreographers. We really want to push ourselves, and challenge ourselves with new material.” Over the next couple of weeks, they will throw together two new show programs, and then rely on other people for feedback.
