    Hey everyone! Keerigan here. Thanks for watching our performance! This is the second copy of this video posted, the first one was posted prior to knowing this 4K landscape version existed. I’m leaving both available so that those who prefer one style over another have a choice.

    You two looked like you have been dancing for years together. I’m just so amazed how you have never dance with a person before and can dance like that. I think I have watched this video over and over. So happy you took first place. You two deserved it. Both were so smooth and clean with the moves. I really enjoy watching you both.

    I love watching the way magic happens during these dances. It’s also really beautiful, the way each dancer is so supportive & excited for you guys at the end. You are filling your own cup, while also filling the cup of a room full of mostly strangers. You must leave these events feeling so great!
    Thanks for posting these on social media!! So often, ppl chose to upload chaos & mayhem to either try & find others who support their lunacy or because they thrive off arguing with strangers. It’s beautiful to see such a kind & harmonious video that just puts a little pep in your step. (No pun intended!)💜🖤💙

    Man, don't know how he could wear that sweater. Maybe it's his look? Get rid of it. He's the star of the show. He could perform well with almost any of these ladies. Not to say this wasn't the winning performance. If only I had 58 years and seven less arthroscopic knee surgeries:-) Nice performance!!

  • @lubel9750
    @lubel9750 11 месяцев назад +1

    How i can dance like this ? 🥹 Where to start. I like to dance spontaneously alone but with a partner it would be injury 😅 if there would not be exact steps. It is soothing to see this flowing

    • @tonyhans5427
      @tonyhans5427 11 месяцев назад

      Ditto...the fluidness and communication of this dance style are remarkable. Spontanious is one of my favorite words because it allows for creativity. As anartist and a dance lover spontenaity are keys
