Chukyo University in Nagoya may not be in the Ivy League of Japanese universities but it certainly excels in women's figure skating.
Two of Japan's best figure skaters, Mao Asada and Miki Ando, both attend Chukyo.
The modern campus building towers above the crossroads at Yagoto in the south east of the city and the university has its own entrance from the Yagoto subway on the Meijo Line.
There are two large ice rinks open to the public in Nagoya: Nippon Gaishi Arena - a five minute walk from JR Kasadera Station on the JR Tokaido Line, two stops from Kanayama Station and The Nagoya Sports Center Rink at Osu Kannon, a three minute walk from Exit 2 of Osu Kannon Subway Station on the Tsurumai Line.
There is another rink in Toyota city at Aichi Youth Park not far from Chukyo's Toyota campus.
