It’s an early morning, and the Winter Village ice rink at Bryant Park is practically empty, except for two incredible skaters and their coach. Oona and Gage Brown, the sibling duo from Team USA Ice Dancers, are about to put on a show that’ll leave you speechless.
As they take to the ice, the camera starts rolling, and their coach, Joel Dear, watches from the sidelines. The cameraman, Jordan Cowan, is right there with them, gliding along as if he’s part of the routine. WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW...
The Browns’ mesmerizing free dance to Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters” is a work of art, pure and simple.
Oona and Gage move like they’re one person, their skates carving perfect lines in the ice. They’re so in sync, it’s like they can read each other’s minds.
The music swells, and suddenly, they’re launching into a series of lifts and spins that’ll make your heart skip a beat. It’s not just the technical stuff, though – the way they pour their hearts into every movement is what really gets you.

As “Nothing Else Matters” builds to a crescendo, Oona and Gage are flying across the ice, their blades flashing in the early morning light. You can feel the emotions radiating off them – the passion, the joy, and the love.
And through it all, Jordan Cowan is right there, capturing every moment. He’s not just filming – he’s part of the dance, weaving in and out, his camera an extension of their movements.
When the final notes of the song fade away, you’re left breathless, your heart pounding in your chest, a grin spreading across your face.
You can’t help but cheer, even though there’s no one else around to hear you. Oona and Gage take a bow, their faces flushed with exertion and happiness.
