Spencer Howe & Emily Chan on partnership, trust & skating through tragedy | 2026 Winter Olympics

Описание: Join American pair figure skaters Spencer Howe and Emily Chan as they open up about the deep connection required for elite ice dancing. In their 7th season together since 2019, the duo discusses how they've developed an intuitive understanding on the ice, where a glance or hand squeeze communicates everything they need.

The conversation takes a poignant turn as they reflect on the tragic loss of beloved members of their skating club community, including Demian, Jenya, and Spencer. They share how the tragedy shifted their perspective on life and skating, motivating them to honor those they lost by giving their all on the ice.

Spencer and Emily reveal what goes on behind the scenes—from their 6-7 AM training sessions to the village of support including coaches, mentors, and Emily's mother who makes their costumes. After nearly 20-24 years of skating respectively, they're ready to give this season everything as they pursue their Olympic dreams.
