Source-derived summary

Jutta Müller (née Lötzsch; 13 December 1928 – 2 November 2023) was a German figure skater and one of the most successful figure skating coaches worldwide.

Personal life

Jutta Lötzsch was born in Chemnitz on 13 December 1928, to Marie Lötzsch (née Prusky) and Emil Lötzsch, the 1930 Saxony champion in wrestling. Her first marriage was to Wolfgang Seyfert. They had a daughter, Gabriele Seyfert, before divorcing. Her second husband was Bringfried Müller (1931–2016), an East German football player.

Müller died in Bernau bei Berlin on 2 November 2023, at the age of 94.

Career

In 1949, Müller won the East German Championships in women's pair skating with partner Irene Salzmann. This category was created because of the lack of men in Germany after World War II. In 1953, she won the ladies' singles bronze medal at the East German nationals.

After World War II, Müller became a teacher of German and sports. In 1946, she became a member of the SED, the former East German communist party.

The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
