Gone

[Juudjeee111]

I hope I can turn like that one day....

[madz2ymail]

This is so beautiful! and is not a dance to be flowy to.

[IcksDeee]

She looks so much like Ginny Weasley / Bonnie Wright from a distance! x

[toffeandcarmel]

hi so i noticed u said u did competition dance.. can u please explain it to me? ive been thinking about getting involved too, but im very nervous! ive danced since i was 3 and i love to preform, but i go to Boston ballet, a professional ballet school , so i have mostly training in ballet. to do a competition do u have to go to a special school? also, can u please explain competitions to me in general? thank you!

[springchick101]

shes a good dancer but i dont think she loses herself in the dance as much as she could..

[GotRice1559]

The Moves of this Dance Are Kinda Confusing ? Ha , But Rate 1 Through 10 I Give it a 1.

[pointeprincess20]

I definitely agree with what everyone's been saying about the preps. Granted the entire studio is taught that way, it really makes the routine much less flowy, and more choppy. Preps sometimes a nice, but it is possible to have a flawless turn without a robotic prep.

[cottontail2001]

I judge on my own from the audience

[cottontail2001]

I judge for some compitions. To rate that from one to ten... I'll give it a genorous 2

[yearningforliberty]

was really good, some steps just looked amazing. but did she forget the cheography in two parts ..? if not i didn't get the moves.. (:

[ashleyrenae92]

Who sings this????

[youwouldneverimagine]

its off.

the music. dosnt go with the dance.

[AprilGoesBoom]

great dancer! but weak choreography. with this song the dance had the potential to be so amazing but it fell flat.

[xxdanceroliviaxo]

she doesnt have any emotion...

[linda32746440]

soo much potential...

[troytroyyy]

@vanaynay93 the whole studio prepares for their turns like that. It's annoying, I agree, but they always nail their turns.

She's gorgeous, just a little stiff in the upper body. And she has a ridiculously slow spot.

[esalazardance]

She has very pretty feet. I felt like her shoulders were up by her ears once in awhile. I didn't believe her. She was way to flat and blank expressionwise. Too bad...

[callmedancekid]

boring

[xheyyitsjuliax]

what i can say is tht she needs to loosen up just a little bit more , in like her elbows and knees and joints like that. her hands need to have more grace as well, bc they are somewhat flat-ish.. but i did like this , like alot(:

[KatieLynneDavis]

This is beautiful! She does need a little more fluidity in transitions...

[Jehseecauh]

Beautiful attitude turns and pirouettes but i agree. Lengthen yourself. and more feeling in the moves.

[Deminus816]

home gurl got some legs on her but i get this alot and my teacher always say to make myself long and make the movements bigger

[purpledancer44]

Make sure to connect your movements more. This way, your dance looks like one big flowing motion instead of choppy unrelated tricks. You are both a great technician and a great performer. It's hard to find a dancer with both of those components. Keep it up, you're great!!

[justduckykari]

She's a good dancer but she needs to work on her lines and flow. There is so much to reach through the music. Even if she is showing emotion on her face her motions are too sharp and disjointed.

[allthatjax101]

this song is always you at competitions!!!!!

[ECP619]

this song is by jessica riddles idiots.

[danzer1793]

i thought the song is by jessica jacobs?

[ESUDanceCompany]

i dont know about you but the quality of the video dosent show her face very well i bet she is showing emotion.

[NessaIrene0206]

It looks like she is, there are moments where you see it. There are parts where she could pull of tears.

[STARSTRUKKKKKK12]

look up!

[WhispersInMyEar]

what is the name and artist of this song?

[PureDancer123]

no emotion, and the moves look choppy, i do a dance to the EXCACT same song, and we have sad faces, i eman listen to the FRICKEN SONG!

[sdawson105]

well the song is called gone, so theres nothing there, shes empty, what is she to do. all choreography isnt going to be relevant to eachother. its all in the eyes of the beholder i guess.

[PureDancer123]

she not empty, she knows the person is gone, so she should hae emotion, which is sad, shes sopposed to be sad and she stares into space the whole time

[sdawson105]

well cool. thats your take :) thanks

[dancedancedance2410]

The emotion is not there.

[GORGEOUSxiiNGrEEN]

shes doing the moves but shes not connecting to teh choreography

[Supernatalie777]

the tricks are amazing, but there's no emotion on her face. i danced to this a few years ago also, but as a small group. :)

[orcinus74]

it just seems like there's something missing.

[ericaaudrashex]

this didnt go with the music at all. the beat of the song and her voice have two different feels so the dance should have been dynamic. too many tricks. we know you can do turns and kick. work on some real dance

[mackenziebayne]

I know there is something weird. It's like she doesn't have any emotion.

[almostelphaba]

@mackenziebayne Yeah, I agree. She's an amazing dancer, but her movements are kind of empty, and her expression is blank. But she's so flexible and strong, and she has so much control. The expression would just be something for her to work on. :)

[kyliehamilton89]

do you notice how she doesnt spot after her turns? i kept thinking she has pretty feet but something is awkward about her dancing. I dont think she straighten her knees all the way either

[dancindarlin14]

too many tricks and it does nto flow

\

[Nickel1222]

Really ?! There may be too many tricks, but she is an amazing dancer and making her moves flow is a small thing. She is great (:

[karebear331]

this is a lot better than the jazz solo. I think she's a beautiful dancer

[mellalellaopolis]

she's amazing but i hate the choreo.

[Rubinatorr]

Where can i get this version of the song??

[ESUDanceCompany]

i tunes thats where i got it

[ericaaudrashex]

sooo much potential.

[anyssa1225]

i didnt connect to her. she has great technique, very great technique, but she doesn't connect with the song. none the less how could she connect with the audience? it was kinda TOO choreographed, extension here, kick there, turn, leap and done. i wanna feel something. i should have to want to cry.

[rcc1463]

i agree, she needs more emotion and feeling

[Puppyluv987]

Yes. I completely agree with you.

Erika Leedy doesn't seem to have very much variety in her choreography

[DancingLilSmurfThing]

i agree with the over choreography. It seems to me that her focus in the dance kept changing...like shr was reaching for someone but  her focus was all over the place;not that it was her fault.

[Puppyluv987]

Adding on.. It seems to be very cookie-cutter competition quality. Not much emotion and trick after trick.

[SpielbergerWithFries]

once again she is a great technician but the choreo is sort of bland and like: ok now we're gonna kick and now we're gonna turn and blablabla. needs more feeling

[allidoisact345]

agreed about the choreography. she has good flexibility and strength.

turns aren't great, but she has a lot of potential.

[SpielbergerWithFries]

the great thing is she's only 14 so she has plenty of time to improve. but the main thing she needs to focus on is feeling the music and connecting with the audience cuz it'll pump up her performance [plus new choreo >.>]

[oohhholax33]

hmm. she has beautiful turns and good technique, but i felt kinda disconnected during this dance. and i almost felt like the dance wasnt put to this song originally.. you know, it just didnt go. it got boring. she could work on her emotion too. she has a LOT of potential though. like on the turns at 2:10. and for some reason i really like 1:02(:

[LiveLaughLove103]

For some reason i dont like any lyrical that the element does. I think its the stiff mechanical quality of the movement. Shes great, but she needs to let go and feel it.

[madddyfbaby]

I honestly can't watch ANY dance to this song besides the Dancer's Edge one because it was so amazing. I just don't think anyone else can do justice to the song like they did

[capacrazy]

there are so many kicks and extentions in the dance. A lot of the moves repeat themselves. She's a great dancer though. There just needs to be a little more emotion.

[sytycDANCER]

so, dancers edge did this song too, and it kinda reminded me of that, especially when shes in the pushup position and does that leg extension. nice turn, kinda slow though

[dancinfool25]

hahaha 1:53 WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?

She's not bad though...good lines and turns. Needs to work on extending.

[deloachkl]

I thought the exact same thing, looked like some Hip Hop or Indian or something.

[SpielbergerWithFries]

LOL thats hilarious

[NiicoleBuii]

it seems like im watching the same moves over and over and over again.

[EssyleQuestis]

She's a good dancer, in my opinion, but and can't go with Erika Leedy's choreographies... They always seem so similar to me...

[esalazardance]

I agree with everyone about the emotion, but her turning is so amazing. She hit a quad outside attitude turn like it was nothing. She is lovely. The choreo is unfortunately not up to her ability.

[xJordanxox]

her dances are kind of boring.

she needs more emotion.

for every turn she uses standard prep, it gets boring and annoying.

also, she goes from doing something slow and nice to something fast. idk i honestly didnt like it. sorry.

[Littlerockerbabe]

She's good but I agree that she doesn't put enough emotion into it. And I also agree about the standard prep for every turn..it makes her look like a beginner.

She does have great technique though and her legs are awesome.

[Anadance]

what kind of prep would you like to see?

[happyfeet67]

she does great turns but it looks like she's not spotting very much

[o0Riptide0o]

thats what I saw too. but I dont think its hurting her turning ability

[angldark2525]

GREAT technique but i dont feel any real raw emotion comin from her

[MileyRocks143]

wow!! shes amazing!!!

[vanaynay93]

I HATE how she does the "standard" prep for ALL of her turns. It's so annoying.

[pakahlika]

@vanaynay93

take it easy, psycho.

no one sees you up there.

[KennyPooBear]

@vanaynay93 well thats not her fault. its the choreographers(sp?)

[lisstenx]

gone--jessica riddle

[justsomeband]

Does anybody know the name of this song? if they could tell me that would be great =)

[rocketallstar08]

umm hhaah "Gone"  or "I know your Gone"

its the title

[justsomeband]

Let me rephrase my question, Does anybody know the Artist of the song...?

[itscaitlinn]

Shes soo good but i feel like shes just doing the choreography... she isnt putting much of her heart into it.

[liviegirl344]

I love the part when she turns with her leg up. i think its anywhere from :44 to :47

[dancecheerhayley9]

Its called a leg spin! Everyone does it have you never seen it before?

[liviegirl344]

haha yeah! I was just having a blank out. I couldn't remeber what it was called!

[dancecheerhayley9]

O its ok! lol

[RainbowNecklace]

i know she does it sooo well, and by the way its called a leg grab turn

[liviegirl344]

haha thanks

[avondaleblondie1]

woow really good. nice turns :)

[twirln55]

[YourDanceChannel]
