Cecilia Törn (born 13 February 1994) is a Finnish ice dancer. With Jussiville Partanen, she is the 2015 International Cup of Nice champion, winner of two bronze medals on the ISU Challenger Series, and a two-time Finnish national champion (2016, 2017). They have competed in the final segment at three ISU Championships.

Career in ladies' singles

Early in her career, Törn competed in ladies' singles. Her junior international debut came in the 2008–2009 season. After placing 27th in her first ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) event, she finished 8th in junior ladies at the Finnish Championships. The following season, she was awarded the national junior silver medal.

In the 2010–2011 season, Törn achieved her best JGP result, 11th, at the SBC Cup in Japan. In October, Törn placed 9th at the 2010 Finlandia Trophy — her senior international debut. She went on to win the senior bronze medal at the Finnish Championships and was selected to compete at the 2011 European Championships in Bern, Switzerland, however, her placement in the preliminary round, 14th, was insufficient to qualify for the short program. Törn finished 7th at the 2012 Finnish Championships.

Career in ice dancing

Törn switched to ice dancing in 2013, teaming up with Jussiville Partanen. In their first season together, the two won the silver medal at the Finnish Championships behind Henna Lindholm / Ossi Kanervo.

In the 2014–2015 season, Törn/Partanen placed seventh at the 2014 CS Finlandia Trophy and second to Olesia Karmi / Max Lindholm at the Finnish Championships. They were sent to the 2015 World Championships in Shanghai but were eliminated after placing 25th in the short dance.

2015–16 season

Törn/Partanen began the 2015–2016 season by placing fourth at the Lombardia Trophy and fifth at a Challenger Series event, the Finlandia Trophy. Their first international medal, gold, came at the International Cup of Nice in October. In November, they were awarded bronze medals at the 2015 CS Tallinn Trophy and 2015 CS Warsaw Cup. The following month, Törn/Partanen became the Finnish national champions, ahead of Karmi/Lindholm, and went on to qualify for the final segment at both of their ISU Championship assignments. Ranked 18th in the short and 14th in the free, they finished 15th overall at the 2016 European Championships in Bratislava, Slovakia. At the 2016 World Championships in Boston, they placed 17th in the short, 19th in the free, and 18th overall.

2016–17 season

On 7 July 2016 Törn/Partanen were both invited to the 2016 Skate Canada International, their first Grand Prix event, replacing Federica Testa / Lukas Csolley who withdrew.[1] They started their season by winning the bronze medal at 2016 CS Lombardia Trophy and placing 7th at 2016 CS Finlandia Trophy. Törn/Partanen won their second Finnish Championships in Tampere, December 2016.[2]
