Lauri Bonacorsi (born January 17, 1993) is an American former ice dancer who represented Italy with Francesco Fioretti. With former partner Travis Mager, she is the 2011 and 2012 U.S. Junior silver medalist.

Career

Bonacorsi began skating at age four.[1] She moved from St. Louis, Missouri, to Plano, Texas, in 2007.[2] She spent the 2007–08 season in search of a partner. Travis Mager found her on IcePartnerSearch and they tried out together in February and April 2008.[1] Bonacorsi and Mager officially teamed up in late May 2008.[3][4] She relocated to Maryland to train with him.[2]

Bonacorsi and Mager won the 2009 U.S. novice ice dancing title. They won the bronze medal at the 2009 JGP Lake Placid. In May 2010, they changed coaches to Natalia Linichuk and Gennadi Karponosov at the IceWorks Skating Complex in Aston, Pennsylvania.[5]

In the 2010–11 season, Bonacorsi and Mager won the bronze medal at the 2010 JGP Brasov Cup in Romania. They won silver on the junior level at the U.S. Championships and placed 11th at the 2011 World Junior Championships.

Bonacorsi and Mager won the silver medal at the 2011 Junior Grand Prix event in Brisbane, Australia, and bronze at another JGP event, the Walter Lombardi Trophy in Milan, Italy. They were the first alternates to the 2011 Junior Grand Prix Final in Quebec City, Canada in December 2011. Bonacorsi and Mager finished 7th at the 2012 World Junior Championships. They announced the end of their partnership in April 2012.[6]

Bonacorsi tried out with Francesco Fioretti of Milan, Italy, in May, 2014, and upon receiving her release from United States Figure Skating, began representing Italy with Fioretti in June, 2014. They worked with choreographer Massimo Scali, and coaches Johnny Johns, Maurizio Margaglio, and Marina Zoueva before Bonacorsi moved to Italy to train with their main coaches, Valter Rizzo and Brunhilde Bianchi.

Personal life

Bonacorsi took time off from skating to pursue an Ivy League education, studying International Relations and Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania. She graduated from Radnor High School in Radnor, PA in June 2011. She currently attends Northwestern Law in Chicago.
