Two gifted dancers showed their impressive moves during a wholly improvised dance number.
Dance, like anything else, takes hours and hours of dedicated practice to appear even slightly competent at it. Sure, anyone can go out on the dance floor and try a move. But the odds of looking like a complete and total amateur who has no idea what they are doing are fairly high, almost a certainty.
A video posted to YouTube shows two people who are anything but amateurs. In the clip, Sondre and Tanya, a “professional swing dance couple,” took to the floor and in an improvised boogie woogie dance, wowed an adoring crowd.
In the nearly 5-minute clip, the two talented dancers strut their stuff, moving rhythmically along to the music being sung and played by the band. Their moves are so in sync that they appear to glide across the dance floor as one.
While the young man in the video obviously has a plethora of moves and tons of talent, it’s his female partner who steals the show. She moves rhythmically with relative ease, making it appear easy. Of course, anyone knows that is not the case at all.
At approximately the 24-second mark of the clip, the woman employs one of Michael Jackson’s patented dance moves – the Moonwalk. For a few seconds, she does actually look to be moving backward on a moving walkway.
If that wasn’t impressive enough, the couple uses acrobatic moves in their dance number. After picking up his female partner, the man throws her toward the ground, sending her through his legs and sliding onto the floor. They use another acrobatic move to finish off their dance. The man flips the woman, head over heels, over his shoulder.
The entire clip is a sight to behold for those who enjoy dance and for anyone who can’t even take a step without twisting an ankle.
