2011 ILHC Solo Charleston Finals - Spotlight 

One can't not to like it, amazing and thanks for sharing.

Супер, а прошло 10 лет

Even though it's more early LIndy than Charleston, it's blended and fabulous!!!!!! God I wish I could still do that : ) The dancers are having such a good time. I'm jealous....... Sharon Davis is a knockout dancer.

I'm glad I live in Alexandria. Now, to find this place

Me fascina esté vídeo..grandes bailarines del charleston 👏👏👏

Why do people keep saying they wish there was still dancing like this done? The video is from 2011 clearly it's still around there are swing dancing/lindy hop and all variation that came with it available all over the world just good your area there is probable a group and if not start one no to mention through this hip hop grow and that is done in clubs grinding is done mostly by people who can't dance so if you want less grinding then teach people to dance and encourage it and dance I. Local clubs that's what I do

this is hella dope! I m obsessed with this dance! I wanna learn!

watched again and again, another world, another people. I love enthusiastic people.

I wish very much to go back in time to the Lindy hop my sister taught me in 1950. The best and most fun dance of the ages.

Да, блондинка просто шикарна !!! Я восхищён её искусством. Браво !!!

Only Miss Sharon Davis kicks ass.

I.... LOOOOOVE THIS! I miss all this -- the 90s we were ALL swinging and lindying and such.

In my opinion, you were born in the right generation. You have the opportunity to learn some lindy hop, the charleston, the swing, all the great dances! Go ahead and learn some, I think you're going to have a blast!

Amazing dancers!

Looks like a whole lot of great FUN!!!!!!!💃🕺

NOTHING BETTER THAN THIS!

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

Holy balls, these people are great! (At least to a noob like me) Fun to dance along to and has given me lots of ideas/inspiration! :D

The trombone is top-notch

that's a good way to look at it. n_n

The lady in the blue dress looks like she's stepped right out of a time machine, she's lovely!

Oh, yeeeeaaahh....

I have to learn this.

1:45 lol And the blonde girl with the pink flower - love it!

The girl in the black dress seriously kicked some ass.

Jo Hoffberg

im loving the blonde girl, her dance style is the most unique

The winner was Olivier Chort, the first man out of the gate (tall, with a suit)

Мне с бантом красным понравилась - хорошо пляшет, с задоринкой)))!

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I'm not a Lindy Hop/Charleston dancer but 4:32-5:05 is AWESOME! Who IS that?

this is how i want to dance.

Make it the right generation.

Shit is RAW.

So proud of the ladies! But I'm surprised Nathan didn't place...

Oh, how I need to be young and buzzing in the 1920's! Not young and typing in the 2010's Cruel, cruel faith.

yep oliver fab in this ,, but who is the girl in black with the grebo look she is just the best

Don't fret, though kids may not, I assure you hip hop does acknowledge it's roots from swing.

You can do it now. There's nothing stopping you. There are plenty of people who do it, solely for fun. Most of the people in this video aren't even professionals.

number 23 is the best in terms of spirit and moves

yeah =) does the move have a name, anybody?

I want me a sweet smilin', Charlston dancin' man

el mejor de todos es el num. 23 !!!!!

Who cares about generations. Let's all Charleston and make the 2010's great!

tell me more about how that isn't in modern dancing/music.

If only the kids of today could see how Lindy hop has influenced Hiphop and dances that they do. I'm sure there would be a hell of a lot more respect going around and less ignorance.

I love the Charleston but I'm at loss because I don't know how to do it can anyone help.

I think they misread the comment.

Finally one thing asains aren't the best at 0_0

This was in 2011.

You got one problem though dude. Lindy Hop was born in the 20s. Hiphop wasn't born until the 80s. Which do you think came first?

get it #15.. did he win?

1:34 that man actually flew..

I think it's funny how all these women are wearing low shoes, back then they danced with high heels.

she looks like shoron from Australia

I like 15

if you no anything about the dance "jerking" you can't tell me that doesn't look like lindy. im 16 showed my brother some charleston he's like "that looks like jerking"

hahahahaha...sometimes I think the same

it's I Found A New Baby

This kind of music is what makes you want to dance, and not dance by having a girl grind her ass against your dick like todays music in clubs, but actually dancing. I wish I was there when this was popular, girls even dressed classy.

You and me both random internet person!

so was I.. do you want to be my dance partner?

You better tie your shoe pretty tight if you wanna dance like that ;D

A little over-excited audience, but great show

Interesting. I don't think any of those people were born in the 1920s.

Sorry folks, this is more like 30's Lindy Hop music and the dance moves that went with it. Come on! If you call it "Charleston Finals", let see the Charleston; i.e., what my grandparents born between 1899 and 1907 would have been doing in the mid to late 1920s, or WHY CALL IT "the Charleston" AT ALL? I'm a musician who fell in love with music listen to my granddad's Roaring 20's records. Another criticism: Most of the music in this video sucked for air.

who said dancing was dead :D

XD

It's called style. I think the kids call it "swag" now a days.

What's up with the second chick? She had no business up there.

Classier than you, that's for sure.

all these dances originated in africa

i was born in the wrong generation

fabulous, but its a pity that the detractor had to make the sexist comment, what a small mind, really....you see the same at the beach, a strip of cloth.....big deal, you are obviously not a dancer......these kids are all winners in my eyes

Can't be bothered with you.
