Piper Gilles & Paul Poirier, "Evita" Free Dance 2022-2023

Canadian Ice Dancers Piper Gilles & Paul Poirier perform their 2023 Free Dance to music from "Evita" by Andrew Lloyd Webber, performed by Madonna and Antonio Banderas.
They are coached at Ice Dance Elite with Carol Lane, Juris Razgulajevs and Jon Lane. Choreography by Carol Lane & Juros Razgulajevs. Music editing by Rob Colling.
Filmed at the Scarboro Figure Skating Club in Toronto, Ontario, on November 10th by Jordan Cowan of @OnIcePerspectives.
On Ice Perspectives is run primarily by donations and Jordan's own extra income, so if you’d like to help support it, please visit www.oniceperspectives.com/support. It may seem like we already do a lot, but we could be doing so much more if we had more financial support from skaters, parents, friends, fans, and anyone who believes ‘On Ice Perspectives’ has brought real value to figure skating. Thank you, and see you on the ice!

OMG THIS IS THE RINK I SKATE AT 😮

[@mennoduk]

Where is this? It looks so cool!

The sign on one of the walls says Scarboro Figure Skating Club.

This is perfection 💖 This Free Dance always moves me to tears 💖 My tears start on 0:39 when the song goes "I believe in you" and Paul supports Piper on that little jump (forgive me for not knowing any technical terms), because it's an element that expresses the lyrics so well 💖Their storytelling is out of this world with their facial expressions, their body movements and their skating💖 Piper and Paul, I'm so glad that you found the answer to the question "Where do we go from here?". I'm happy you decided to keep skating, not only because I feel that it makes you both happy (and you do deserve to be happy), but also because I need you in my life 💖 Much love from Portugal on this World Ice Skating Day ⛸ Keep shining, Piper and Paul💖🌟💖🌟 Thank you On Ice Perspectives for sharing this 💖

This was beautifully performed. It touched my sentimental side and I felt close to tears. I am going to send this on to those I know love ice skating. Giles and Poirier you captured this old woman's heart.

[@DeserveGold]

The best program of this couple! Thank you Piper and Paul for stay in competitive sport and create such a beautiful dance.

[@syc1805]

Wow wow! The whole thing was beautiful but the shots that you got of the ice slide move, final lift, and final pose at the end were amazing!

[@deborahhovan6464]

Absolutely beautiful

[@kasiaczemplik163]

I didn't yet start dreaming of that choreography appearing On Ice Perpective and it is already here! The moment I have been waiting the most in the last two GrandPrix events, the Evita. I really wish them the best, it is by no doubts one of the best free skates this season if not the very best, we shall see and I can't wait ☺️🙏🏻

[@Errain01]

I agree with every your word. I was staring at this FD on Skate Canada like it was something from another planet. And it moved me immediately, I was crying in front of the TV.

[@user-gj5zo2os2j]

Восхищение

[@valentinarusak6831]

Браво!

[@andreagoldstein4070]

Love it! Will they win Worlds with this FD? Time will tell. Thanks for another great video. Can see you working in the reflection of the mirror.

[@chelongogan3904]

GOD BLESS

[@gracejessen3660]

Adore this: the glimpses of Jordan Cowan, photographer-skater, in the mirror, and the lifts do not include the Gilles' head going within one centimeter of the ice....these on top of the spectacular fit of the music to the extraordinary skating--- really really special. Thank you all three

[@OnIcePerspectives]

Appreciate you!

[@susanbutler7963]

Beautiful flawless choreography. Everything about this performance is amazing.

[@cynthiamccullough3718]

Lovely! I will always have a soft spot in my heart for "Evita."

[@quintupleaxel]

So beautiful. I'm really not a fan of Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals at all. But these two make it so emotionally affecting.

[@liberty0622]

Fantastic, well done, DON'T cry for ME 🇦🇷 ARGENTINA

[@wb2824]

I can't can 't tell you how many times I have watched this. Love this program and love the way you filmed it Jordan.

[@OnIcePerspectives]

Thank you!

[@randybaldwin5427]

How beautiful they are together!

[@annebotz7611]

That was just so beautiful!

[@susantescione8007]

Lovely dance to a lovely song.

[@schattentaenzerin]

Wonderful medley and stunning choreography and performance. Jordan, I saw you in the mirror! I've been looking for videos of how you film while skating and some other fans were so nice and provided me with a few. It was cool to catch a glimpse of you working your magic here!

[@mariagagliardi1588]

Meraviglia stupendo meraviglia doro

[@marycoyne1889]

Love this program for them. It really also channels Davis and White in a way….and somehow I kept thinking about how Davis and White would have skated it.

[@EndtimeElijah]

Superb !!!

[@sharlenen.z.9977]

Absolutely beautiful !!!! Love from New Zealand

Bravo❤️👏❤️👏❤️👏❤️👏❤️

[@darkbibni]

Wow all the lift are insane o_o Incredible performance there!

[@MikeO89]

Having no boards is both cool and terrifying

[@sallygreenfield6991]

I am sad about the music (except for the waltz for Eva and Che), but the skating is GORGEOUS.

[@JaceJHubbard]

The way I can't stop looking at the videographer in the mirror haha

[@schattentaenzerin]

Every time a skater gets lifted up and twirled in the air, I hold my breath. I get so nervous that they might crash against the rink or ice. But I still absolutely love watching and admire the skill of figure skating too much to stop 😊

[@private3364]

that's more in pairs where they get thrown, not ice dance

[@viiktoria135]

First comment 🥰

[@lepout]

I'm dreaming ...

[@user-gz7sf2el8s]

Исходную финальную позу вернуть!

[@beatrixauger8372]

Aucune difficulté !!!

[@user-pm7sw9pw6m]

Je crois que Paul c'est l'homme le plus beau dans le monde du patinage artistique

[@teresaramos1719]

Not a fan of the circus clowning music. ..takes away from the beauty of ⛸️

[@snowwhite2709]

Move on then.
