How do you remove a brake on rollerblades?

Removing a brake from a pair of rollerblades is quite simple. When you purchased the skates, there should have been a little packet inside the box that contained the owners' manual along with a hex key (allen wrench) (2 may have been included), and an extra axle. To remove the break, use the hex key(s) to loosen and remove the axle holding the wheel and brake together on the frame. Once completely loose, remove the brake while keeping the wheel in its place on the frame. If the wheel comes out of the frame while removing the brake, that's okay, but typically the wheel can remain in its spot on the frame.

Take the extra axle provided in the packet from the box and use it to fasten the wheel where the brake used to be back to the frame. The extra axle is shorter in length that the axle used to hold the wheel and the brake. If you use the original (longer) axle, it will stick out from the frame and when you turn it will hit the skating surface.

Once you've completed all of these steps, you're all ready to skate with your skates without the brake.

Where are the brakes on Nike Bauer rollerblades?

Based on the brand mentioned (Nike/Bauer) I'm going to venture a guess that these are roller hockey skates. In which case, the brake would be absent as all roller hockey skates are manufactured without a brake.
