They also retained the Finlandia trophy for the second year, along with placing first in Sheffield at the IJS, placing second at the NHK Trophy in Japan and third at the Trophee Eric Bompard in France.
Kerr/Kerr made their Olympic debut in ice dance at the Torino 2006 Olympic Games, placing 10th.
After the 2005/06 season they swapped coaches moving from long-time coach Joan Slater to double Olympic Ice Dance Champion Evgeni Platov (the Russian won titles in 1994 and 1998).
In 2006 they won their first gold in an overseas tournament when they won the Nebelhorn Trophy in Oberstdorff, Germany.
They have also trained with 1984 Olympic Ice Dance champion Christopher Dean and were invited to spend time with him in Colorado in the summer of 2005.
