Anaelle Kouevi & Yann Homawoo are first cousins,
Black Ice Dancers in the Nationals!
It's cool to see. Young people being in sports like this usually means access to an ice rink that is there year round. More diversity in national competitions often come from more equity in access to training spaces.

Here is #Yuzuru Hanyu saying something similar.
I like him so much!

2025 The First Skate - Yuzuru Hanyu

YouTube

Such a distinctive skater.

I was watching skating shorts on YouTube, and I realized that even when they didn't name him, I could recognize Hanyu Yuzuru - san by the arch of his back when his arms were raised.

His artistic style on the ice is unrivaled.

I'm beginning to like these two kids. Ice dancers 15 and 16 and their Funky Music.

Oooh, they're good. Thanks for sharing!

(But I saw people saying in the YouTube comments that the clip has different music overdubbed due to copyright issues? If that's true, I'd like to see it with the original music.)
