Career

Early career

Panesar began skating at around age seven. Initially he focused on ice hockey, but later switched to figure skating and tried ice dancing after a coach's suggestion.[1]

He teamed up with Emily Phillips for the 2013–14 season. They won their first national medal, a bronze at the 2016 British Championships in the novice level, winning the event three years later. They split after six seasons competing together.

2021–22 season: Junior Grand Prix debut

Pallu-Neves and Jayin Panesar established their new partnership in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and officially debuted internationally in the 2021–22 Junior Grand Prix circuit in Courchevel, France, where they finished in thirteenth place.[2] hey won the bronze medal at the 2022 British Junior Championships.

2022–23 season

Pallu-Neves and Panesar faced challenges during the 2022–23 season, leading them to seek representation with the Brazilian Ice Sports Federation due to a lack of support from the British Ice Skating organization. Pallu-Neves explained, "We didn't have the support to succeed. So the season was very difficult. The federation didn't help at all."[1] However, due to the recent change in their country of representation, they were unable to compete in any ISU events until after February 2023, as they had to comply with the mandatory one-year suspension imposed by the ISU on athletes changing their representation.[3]

Despite these challenges, Pallu-Neves and Panesar aimed to qualify for the 2023 World Championships and made their debut in the senior category at the 2023 Egna Dance Trophy, which made them the first senior team to ever represent Brazil in ice dance. They achieved a total score of 124.05 points and met the required technical scores in rhythmic dance for the 2023 Four Continents Championships.

The team also participated in the 2023 Challenge Cup, their final opportunity at that season to earn the necessary minimum technical scores for a 2023 World Championships entry. However, Pallu-Neves and Panesar finished in thirteenth place with a total of 123.95 points, failing to meet the required scores for a spot at the World Championships.
