From the translation of an announcement in German:

Robin Szolkowy, 5-time World champion, announced that he will move to the U.S. this spring to develop a pairs training center in Irvine, CA, along with the Meno/Sand group.

Szolkowy made his decision following talks with USFSA, during which the U.S. federation expressed the desire for growth of the pairs discipline in the U.S. Szolkowy hopes to work with both U.S. & international teams and foresees possible long-term residence in the USA.
