They didn’t kill it. When they are truly elite dancers in heels, then they would be at the level of the Solid Gold Dancers. The tricks they did in heels is still that of legends in Hollywood!
This was a very stylized piece and I think the dancers did well. I was particularly impressed with the beginning--the play on the Asian “ThousNd Hands” dance. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that incorporated into a routine from an American studio. Very creative fusion of cultures!
I loved this but I also wanted it to go harder. The music is so intense & I sensed insecurity possibly coming from the risk of falling over in high heels? If I were to choreograph this I think I'd leave out the heels and let the dancers express harder without them, and give them some more symbolic choreo like there was in the beginning. Strong technique, though, and excellent formations, spacing, and synchronization. Obviously they're all excellent dancers.
I saw the same thing, and wonder if the choreography was written for a larger stage? Having to moderate strides for a shortened distance would account for a lot of the lack of "snap" to their strides, etc, and kept the overall energy down. It's hard to go all out when you are constantly having to remind yourself to go small or run out of stage...
Much better choreography in my opinion than Lillian Blackburn routines. Well done, love the arm routine at the beginning and like the comment below I felt it needed something more but great none the less
Love love love this dance and song. What remix is it? My daughter would like to do a solo to this song but we cannot find this remix. Any info you could provide would be helpful. Thanks! Again, love your work here!!
Strong group number and strong talented group of dancers but there were parts that felt flat and left me bored and wanting more coming from someone who has studied and continues to train and teach dance. The beginning is powerful and the arm articulation middle to end is very solid but the end could benefit from stronger phrase work my opinion. Love the song choice. Great job dancers.
Nice routine but, even though they were on beat, they lacked “rhythm”. They would do good to incorporate syncopation into their movements. It’s the tiny movements that are done between the beats that make u one with the music.
Serero Serera Sure. I’ve tried to search for something that would provide a good illustration. I think I’ve come up with one. Search for “The jacksons Motown 25” performance. At 2 minutes the adult brothers take the stage. By this time they have had a lifetime of experience performing with each other and understand their strengths and weaknesses. One not so secret secret is the fact that Jermain, who will be on the far right holding his guitar, in Purple pants next to Michael, has always struggled as a dancer. In this footage they try to hide him, however in a few sequences he is exposed. Specifically in the opening seconds of their routine. If you compare his stiff movements to that of Michael and Jackie, who is in the center in the green jacket, you’ll catch a clear glimpse of a lack of syncopation. Notice how the other two move their entire body. Allowing the motion of their shoulders, hips and feet to follow the rapid rhythm of the high hat and snare drums while the rest of their body executed the main dance steps in rhythm with the kick drum. This rocking of the hips and shoulders is primary syncopation. Michael, being a genius, you’ll notice executes SECONDARY syncopation using his head and neck and by lifting his entire body off the ground in time with the music. Others things such as a subtle flick of the wrist or a slight exaggeration of a kick are also forms of syncopation. Remember, we can program a robot to move in time, but it takes soul to dance. Let the music live inside you and it’ll move your soul as it leaves. 👍🏾
Serero Serera After watching your video again I see the a number of you move with rhythm and energy. I’m my initial viewing my eyes were drawn to the ones who didn’t. This is common human nature and I will call it a flaw on my part. It wasn’t fair to focus on the weakest links in a performance that actually was quite good.

С тобою моё сердце навсегда! С тобою мне поверь, Мы неразлучны!
there are other dancers in this group who would have been more well suited for the lead/center role, the one who is in the front of the group in the beginning of the routine. eyes go to that dancer & she needs to deliver.
Not what I was expecting... This choreography is pretty weak. They walk around and stand doing basically nothing most of the time. I was expecting something more hardcore. From 2:01 on, for a few seconds it looked like it would pick up, and be an actual DANCING TO THE MUSIC type of thing, but it waned down again quickly...
It wasn’t as hedonistic as it could’ve been. If more Fosse type gesture were included into this piece, along with some slaps on the ground, arms, hand and wrist gesturing, with some pelvic thrust in the beginning would’ve have giving it the full experience I as an audience e member was looking for. It had been reduced from an R rated dance to a PG rated one. The fist chakra was silenced from this dance piece. They might as well have been dressed as nuns, because the females were just moving mannequins on stage. Lifeless and soulless corpses. It was like watching a run way show on fashion week. But perhaps that was the choreographers intent.
They did a nice job but this song is incredibly sensual and they could have turned their moves upwards quite a bit without getting raunchy and still tying better into the music. I think they missed the boat but they did a really great job. I think they might have picked a better song to fit their modest moves.
Great song could’ve been a lot better if they were actually really dancing No jumps turns weren’t great I’m assuming because it’s almost impossible to really dance in those heals

I can't believe they did all of this high heels!! :00
It’s actually not heels it’s jazz shoes with a point! :D🍿

It's an exercise in restraint.
I don't think you get it.
@@aimdancecenter okay but if restraint is impeding energy in the performance then what's the point?
Bravo ladies! Loved the visual appeal!
Totally COOL dance routine !!! Reminds me of some of Madonna's pop dance s of Emaculate Conception , 👍 🙂
👍
👍👼
Loved it..great job girls!
🇧🇷 Incrível! Um dos melhores que já vi. E essa sequência?... Perfeito
These dancers are killing it ,
Wow, and original voices😍

Amazingly. GOOD. dance performance , 👍 👍 😀

Splendid.
Incredible!!
love this song and the dance is perfect!

lynda whitlow agreed. Something seemed lacking. Maybe energy too?
Just looking for growth every year.
Just the heels i think.. those girls without them could have killed it. Only so much you can do in them. For a heels number i thought it was fabulous
IDK felt like technical skills were lacking...better technique can equal better choreography, and thereby, a lack of boredom
It's just a dance :)
Nice routine but, even though they were on beat, they lacked “rhythm”. They would do good to incorporate syncopation into their movements. It’s the tiny movements that are done between the beats that make u one with the music.
do you do dance?
Kaylin J Yes, in fact I do.
Can you recoommend a video of what you mean by syncopation? Thanks

Жизнь на Таити,
Корсике, иль Крите!
Что выбираешь ты,
Любовь моя?
У моря,
Океана,
Рыбы, птицы!
По вечерам
Веселье до утра!
Я так хотел с тобой,
А ты мечтала,
Полёты,
Поцелуи
Навсегда!
Малиновые губы
И объятья!
Счастливые
Любимые глаза!
Я сочный ананас
Принёс в кроватку!
Ну, милая,
Возьми кусочек съешь!
Мартиника!
Корабль отплывает завтра!
Сошёл с ума?
Возможно.
Но ты здесь!
P.S.
С тобою моё сердце навсегда!
С тобою мне поверь,
Мы неразлучны!

Well I thought it was sensational
Beginning arm choreography was amazing and then they didn't do much. Was very disappointed. Not the Jazz I'm used to.

You obviously do not know shit about the song or about why it was made. Please go do something like use Google for gods sake. >
Go look up the lyrics, because the last thing this song has to do with is anything involving sex or something equally as raunchy
yeah i appreciate tjhis but ui think u gay
@@frenchfriedrenaissancebaby6140 they were seniors, so either 15 or 16 and up
Great song could’ve been a lot better if they were actually really dancing No jumps turns weren’t great I’m assuming because it’s almost impossible to really dance in those heals

It's worship song with worship dance.. if yes... so evil...
