French ice dancing coach From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Romain Haguenauer (born 16 July 1976) is a French ice dancing coach, choreographer, and former competitor. He is best known for his work with the French five-time World and 2022 Olympic champions Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron; and with Canadian three-time World champions and two-time Olympic champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir. He has also coached the top-ranking American teams of Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donohue, and Madison Chock and Evan Bates.
Haguenauer was born on 16 July 1976 in Lyon, France. His mother, an elementary school teacher, and father, a lawyer, raised him in Ainay.[1] After graduating in 1998 from Claude Bernard University Lyon 1 with a degree in sports and physical education (Capes d'éducation physique et sportive), he taught for a year at a secondary school, collège Jean-Monnet.[2][1]
In 2017, Haguenauer married Jamal Othman, a former Swiss figure skater.[3] Their son, Noam Camille Othman Haguenauer, was born in November 2022.[4]
Haguenauer was coached from the age of five by Muriel Boucher-Zazoui and competed with his sister, Marianne Haguenauer, for ten years.[2] They placed eighth at the 1995 World Junior Championships in November 1994 in Budapest and won gold at the 1995 Ondrej Nepela Memorial. Due to his sister's health issues, he retired from competition at age 20. He had no regrets, as he had a strong interest in coaching.[1]
