I can’t speak, I can’t breathe I can’t figure out how to put into words the way a fathers support love encouragement can hit his child’s heart no matter what the time day or age is ontop of following a dream..... IM COMPLETELY SPEECHLESS 😶
I think what makes this performance with the cyr wheel stand out, is the sense of surrender to the momentum of the ring. It is a graceful performance, but always moving with a flow, never fighting it, sometimes guiding it, but ultimately celebrating and enjoying the ride.
Matthew Richardson you good !!!! You are beautiful, graceful, emotionally transmitted to the public ... well done. THIS IS THE SPEECH YOUR SPEAKS !!! PERFECTLY!!! I often watch this video ... and I'm inspired ...
With such ease and elegance, we can only be mesmerised by your talent and beauty 😊 I found your wonderful project with The Arrow, the message you send is striking! #pride
I am awestruck. So beautiful and magnificent, along with this music, with those lights, with the ease of those movements, I felt being taken into another world.
You are a stunning athlete. You performance was captivating. Stellar smooth sequences that felt like still frames of artwork flowing together. Awesome. Beautiful. Pictures beyond best words. Blessings your way. Sincerely, Megan.
Cette artiste est incroyable, d'une grâce fantastique. Cette discipline est juste dingue...je ne me lasse pas de le regarder. Bravo vous êtes fantastique
One comment!?!?! Holy shit that was beautiful!!!!!!!!!!! (I arrived here ISO an example of cyr wheel to show people, since it's not a well-known art - to show people what I was so excited to have my first class for today - first cyr wheel class. I dance and fell in love with cyr first time I saw it...Even though it looks hard, it's harder than it looks! Fuckin' beautiful performance here!
01:54 to 02:00 is the moment of Human will. This is out of comfort zone ... when you are real you - dancing alongside with your alter ego. Others knows only your Alter ego - Real you zone is intimate space where you are face to face with God. Fireworks salutes from Bulgaria!
I see movement, a needed ingredient in health. This person performing is in sync with what is needed to keep on top of whereabouts. I've never seen this form of movement, Cry Wheel, until recently and can see this is useful as a therapy tool, so let it be.
I didn't read the blurb first. I was thinking: If this didn't win, who did? G*D shooting the universe into existence? He's such an insanely talented choreographer and performer. Seeing this, I can see how he could go very far indeed on AGT. Break a leg Matthew!
I came here from the Arrow visual video and I loved both, your so amazing, I was just wondering, what the music playing in the background, it sounded great.
Of all his performances I still think his first audition on X factor was his best. The performance in the air was awesome showing he is a creative artist. I don't know if the ring on the floor is more demanding than the artistry in the air, but the performance in the air keeps you spellbound. The ring on the floor doesn't seem to demand body artistry along with body strength, fitness and the precision displayed in the air. On the floor, it is just like what we call it, floor exercises to keep your learned skill, not showing what is in your heart of heart when it comes to the artist. I would not pay to see just the performance on the floor, I want to see the artist that tugs at my heartstrings. I love the piece with your partner till the end when you kissed, it put sex into the performance. When you watch you want the anticipation of the act of love, not seeing the sexual act. A light touch is more intriguing than seeing the full sexual act, just like a partially nude body is more intriguing than the fully nude body. Leave something to desire, we a full conclusion there is nothing left to come back for.
If this man is as beautiful on the inside as he is perfection outside.... we’ll, then I know who God gave all my bonus footage to. (Please be a bit of an ego-monster, something!)
I wonder... what's going through his mind, when he does this? Is he concerned about technique? Is his mind ascended and in another place? Does he find freedom doing this?
Miikhiel Aali, I can’t to speak for him, but as a performer myself I can give you my experience. I tend to go blank on stage... I rehearse and know my work... when I’m on stage or whatever, my adrenaline kicks in and it’s all instinct. I don’t think at all when performing, in fact I don’t even really start thinking at all until it’s over... almost like it wasn’t me performing and I completely missed it. Then I’ll see video and know how it went. I imagine he can probably share a similar explanation.
Dr. Manhattan has a slow day, plays with a hoop. Very nice. Question; given the different weight distributions between men and women, are there some moves men can do that women can't, and vice versa? Or can they adjust positions enough to compensate for it?
I thought you wore black contacts while this performance and i wonder how you could see something whith them :) sorry english is not my native language
Matthew Richardson :D okay, that wasn't what i expected. But thank you very much. I also love your other video. It is so beautiful. When i watched it the first time i was: "Okay, i need to watch it again." Great job :)
....when you have proficiency in both straps and Cyr Wheel and your sick and tired to death of smug Lyracists acting like ariel hoop is the higher art form. Best cyr wheel start ever. Show em how its done Richardson.
@@MatthewRichardsonCircus yes, i know. i phrased it in that way as most people reading it are not you. after 3:43 was good, but i found it mostly boring up until that point, sorry...
