Yale student Nathan Chen is taking part in the World Figure Skating Championships in Stockholm, Sweden this week. He has won two world championships in the past, and he won a bronze medal at the Olympics. NBC Sports has reported that he is expected to take a year off from competitive figure skating after the next Olympics to complete his education in New Haven. Chen tells the Yale Daily News that he has spent the last year working on basics on the ice, and taking time to improve mindfulness to help relax at the end of each day.
