[edit] Biography

Florian Just began figure skating at the age of five at the EC Nürnberg. At this time he also practiced Artistic roller skating. He had some success on the Junior Grand Prix circuit as a single skater. He is the only German skater who reached an ISU Junior Grand Prix Final in the Men's competition.

He moved to Munich because of the better training available at the Münchener EV. Here he continued five more years with single skating before he changed to pair skating in Berlin. His first skating partner was Mariana Kautz. In January 2004 he changed his partner to Mari-Doris Vartmann.

He is a member of the club Essener Jugend-Eiskunstlauf Verein. Mari Vartmann and Florian Just were coached originally by Julia Gnilosoubowa. Since Autumn 2004 their coach is Knut Schubert. They practice in Dortmund and also in Berlin.
