A back injury hindered her jumping abilities, and at 14 she took up the ice dance and asked Lohse to join her. The pair were among the very initial East German ice dancers in decades, with the discipline was largely lost in the preceding 18 years. They were trained until 1996 by Knut Schubert, who was more focused on pairs skating. In 1996, they relocated from Oberstdorf located in Bavaria and switched the coach they had in the direction of Martin Skotnicky.
