And he still hasn’t shown us everything." Shae-Lynn Bourne has choreographed many of Yuzuru Hanyu’s iconic free programs, including “SEIMEI,” “Hope & Legacy,” and “Ten to Chi to (Heaven and Earth).” How does she understand his unique worldview, and how have they created such expressive performances together? We spoke to her about the deep trust they share. PROFILE Born January 24, 1976, in Canada. A former ice dancer, she became the first world champion in her discipline as part of a non-European pair, together with partner Victor Kraatz, at the 2003 World Championships. She won the Four Continents Championships three times and the Grand Prix Final twice. After turning professional, she has continued to perform as a solo ice dancer. As a choreographer, she has worked with many Japanese skaters including Yuzuru Hanyu, Shizuka Arakawa, Daisuke Takahashi, Akiko Suzuki, Shoma Uno, Wakaba Higuchi, and Yuma Kagiyama.

It has been four years since he won the gold medal at the Sochi Olympics at age 19. The path he has walked as an Olympic champion has been filled with far more hardship than one might imagine. Behind the glory, he hit walls time and again and faced moments where the pressure nearly crushed him. As he reflects on his journey, tears naturally well up in his eyes. Despite the struggles and inner conflicts, he still returned to the ice. What, then, is the driving force behind that choice? He also shares his dreams for life after PyeongChang.
