Saw this again today 01/24 this is the video that inspired me to dance WCS nearly 20 years ago (in spite of the video quality) As magical as the first day I saw it. Met my wife at dancing and we are still dancing modern jive and WCS, the four in this video are probably the best dancers in their genre on the planet, shame we lost Jason Colacino ..RIP.
tatiana is truly amazing! she got the moves and grace. a lot of us can learn the moves but not the grace. that's what you call talent! putting life in your moves and feeling the music deep within. she might slipped sometimes but this is just a demo. everybody makes mistakes. thanx matrixdanzr!!! tc
Wrong! I think that was one of the best parts. I love that they were brave enough to show same gender pairings. We're living in a new milennium. Leaders and followers parts not "the man's part" and the "women's part"
who cares how many mistakes she made she still was really good and probably alot better than most people who enter those compatitions maybe that routine was hard or something.♥ ♥
Well, I do think the blonde danced rather woodenly compared to the other 3, as they had a lot of hip action. I thought it was fun & freaky to have the girl-girl / boy-boy partner section! Good choice of music.
Good dancers lose their inhibitions about physical closeness. Hard core dancers dancers practise and dance with a wide variety of people, and they stop associating the touching you do in dancing with sex (unless they want to think of it that way, that is). Women can dance with women without it being sexual, and the same with men.
People who are bagging on the blonde girl's 'mistakes' probably don't do west coast swing themselves. All 4 of them did great, to keep it looking like The Stepford Dancers, each person brings their own style to the routine.
Aside from the fact that it totally rocks..did ya'll notice the miscues at 2:40 and 3:04 of the routine....ahhhh...near perfection....but it still rocks..not sure who got off the second time but Jordan and Parker are out of sync when Jordan gets off the floor. At 3:04 it appears they lead different patterns and then it gets off sync again....Still wish I could dance 1/10th this well! lol
hello! can anybody tell me what do you mean by these lines? "je ne suis pas dans l'amour. II est juste une phase l'ou je passe." my friend told me they were batchmates with tatiana and she wrote this in her scrapbook. please translate this for me...!
Ok see, thats the kind of ignorant stuff this world can do without. "The Blonde" as you call her is Tatiana Mollman, WCS Champion. She does know what shes doing, this was probably off the cuff with like a week to prepare. She is an amazing dancer and performer and if you were a performer you would know that not every show is perfect. Maybe do some research and know what you're talking about before you hate.
Come on....the blonde made about 3 mistakes and people are talking about her like she's the worst dancer who ever lived! Geez. I thought the routine was very impressive, myself.
My very favorite West Coast Swing video. Awesome! I especially love that included all combinations including the guys. Fantastic to see same gender dancing. My only wish was that the lighting was better. Great job!!
