Collide Travis and Ivan

[complicatednamibian]

nice imagery!! great work guys!! love you

[mackzekerule]

It's so cool to see Ivan doing contemporary so naturally, considering he started on the show as a B-Boy. Yay personal growth and expression!

[8015edison]

It's more than dance.

[joannesong]

they are absolutely incredible!! definitely two of my favorite sytycd contestants!!

[purplesissycat]

OMG! They are amazing together!

[lizkalee245]

I cry with joy when I see beautiful things in the world. But to me there seems to be a different feeling in the pit of my stomach when a routine that I watch or a routine that I am performing makes me cry. Its a love separated from all the rest inside of me. Its set above everything else. There is nothing more in the whole world that i love more than dancing. <3

[donnaleemax1]

genious

[hellsbelBEL]

no way this could be improv... man - i could melt watching this.... 

[narusaku4eva1000]

ivan's not even contemporary he is hip hop...he is awesome, both of them!

[twirlerc]

omg so beautiful and all improv.....you guys rock

[hope45688]

ahhhhhhh!!!!! ivan is gonna be on next week!!!

[nanas5678]

even if it wasnt improv it would still be absolutely AMAZING! Love you Ivan and Travis!

[ThePinkoreo2]

IMPROV???!!!! Proves exactly how's amazing Travis Wall is

[hope45688]

IMPROV???? thats insane!! they were sooooo good!

[1InAMlIoN]

BEAUTIFUL

[mickeymouse14ish]

Don't stop here

[Azami4117]

WAIT, this is IMPROVE??? WHAT?!?!? Why does no one tell me these things!!!

[nanas5678]

@Azami4117 Improv means improvisation, which means the dance wasn't choreographed and for these two to have such a connection to where neither one of them knows for sure what the other is going to do yet they still feel what is coming next and are able to make it look great is amazing!

[Azami4117]

@nanas5678 I know, I was just surprised it was improv because it was so good :)

[JojoplusBo]

PER~ FECT~ ION!!! absolutely stunning to watch Travis & Ivan. Two very talented dancers, I could watch them non stop. I remember them from So You Think You can Dance.....I knew at their auditions that their souls 'danced'...they are very blessed indeed!

[Peachesfolife]

Wow. This is so beautiful. Amazing!

[MarleneMun]

thereee isnt wordss to explainn!!!!! i dnt even think the word exsist for this type of dancingg!!!!!:)

jst an ooh whow!!!! flawless!!! omg!!! jaw dropping!!! too muchh:)))))))

[dajuniors4eva]

I can't believe all of that was improve

[tennesseeangel12]

Well that was amazing. :)

[SAharpak]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I can't believe this was uploaded so many years ago & I'm just seeing this for the first time!!!

amazing what you can do with a beautiful song, two amazingly talented dancers & a stage...

[kamjc]

wait... ALL of this was improv'ed???? No way! This is too ...in sync. Amazing sh**.

[CBAllyCat]

Gorgeous... :'(

[bteieteie]

no way this was improv'ed!

[Sirenpheonix]

I have no words...... BEAUTIFUL!!!! Ivan you have grown so much as a dancer and Travis, you are so beautiful. You move me everytime i see you do what you do. Thank you both for this

[LuuuuuM]

I'm speechless...

[hardstyleknocker]

travis<333

[chelcdance]

Wow, these two are not human...that was insane!!!!!

[JulesS2729]

Were/are they a couple?!  They are so in sync with each other. Gorgeous piece!

[myweirdself]

amazing. so beautiful.

[Paradys197]

Utterly Beautiful!!! Amazing!!!

[OddballEndorser]

That was improv?? Oh my lord, these two must be telepathic or something. Amazing!

[TheBieberisthebest]

this is why dance is beautiful...was completely immersed in the two of you...

[poordietingpig]

this sort of connection between two human beings probably come once or twice in one life time if we're lucky.

[NickJonasEqualsHot]

amazing. you really have to be born with that kind of talent.

[chelryan22]

@doughertyj2 : and they're just that good. i mean, amazing.

[gloriamilton]

absolutely beautiful!

[doughertyj2]

are you sure this is improv? theres too many steps where they interlock and i feel like you would have choreograph those ....

[Dancingtoes16]

@doughertyj2 no not really. If you practice improv with another person you start to be able to anticipate their movements and work throughout their negative space. It was very believable improv.

[sigurrosgirl]

I think I could watch it 100 times and never get tired of it!!!! It truly is a amazing!!!! Maybe it is the best thing I ever seen;)

[danycolatillo]

where is the song???

[sigurrosgirl]

BEAUTYFUL!!!!!!

[sigurrosgirl]

This is more than AMAZING!!!!

[animalsandmusicroks]

wow tht was really beautiful. Those two both have some serious skills, and their styles just match very well. If this didn't say improve i would have never believed it because they danced so well and fluidly. MAN THEY MAKE THT LOOK SO EASY!! <3

also does anyone know the name of this song?

[RockFan232]

Ivan and Travis just move so freely. Their movement goes well together, and I love to watch them dance.

[BeckiPirouettes]

that was breathtaking.

[rowl007]

owe amzing! :)

[stellatennista]

it makes me forget myself.....<3....thank you for posting this!i wouldn't be able to see people dance that way otherwise...

[ydc10]

sooo beautiful (:

[brinley444]

SOOOO GOOOOOOOD!

ahhh this is improv!? AMAZING

[scorpiomoon]

Amazing. I'm just.. stunned. Soooo beautiful. :)

[anninator3000]

Holyyy, this is improv? Wow...GENIUS!

[NinaaKid]

Ah. Travis you're an inspiration for us all! love your work

[OomandiiioO]

ivankoumaev, yeah i think you made a mistake when you were typing the description, this is clearly too good to be improv...

[sharjaht]

stunning!

[jagelskarmcfly]

travis, travis, travis god i love you.Such a great dancer.That's what i call a real talent

[jerikareid1]

wowww!!! so powerful..I love it

[PinkyMars1]

whoa..wait...what? this genius piece of work is completely improv??!?!?!? ...............gah uh *speechless* 

[mg220965]

just beautiful

[PYT4ever13]

amazing <3

[WithOurWings]

it's just incredible how they can feel the impulse of each other to put their moves together. if only i could move my body like that. it's so beautiful and inspiring. there were some moments that actually made me tear up. thank you so much, ivan and travis for the most amazing dance. like the whole section from 1:32 to 2:12 is amazing. and 2:22 to the end, their chemistry is absolutely unbelievable. this literally brought me to tears.

[WithOurWings]

@WithOurWings And the moment from 0:45 to 0:51 is perfection. And I LOVE 0:59 to 1:15.

[callmecourtney]

that was amazinggg, i have no idea how that was all improved.

[tasha5951]

Wow!

[raices2]

this is amazing..brilliant........move­d to tears....more please....

[ohdangitstiana]

holy shit

[dancer11114]

I love them. I'm happy I got to take a class from them and learn from them! They are amazing!

[hollister6397]

OMG THATS SOOOOOO NOT IMPROV......well....its travis and ivan....anything can happen :)

[AliceInWonderland132]

bullshit that's improv... that was completely choreographed, it was amazing! but don't try to say that was improv

[jiraya350]

@AliceInWonderland132 No at some points it does kind of look like improv.

To the point, it was absolutely gorgeous!

[alyniyum]

this is just beautiful.

such a good pairing.

[gueracenea]

who is singing?

[bubblesxoxo1234]

@gueracenea Howie Day - Collide. good song :)

[gueracenea]

sorry Im spanish and I dont know the music someone can tell me from where is who sings or something? I like it too much, and the dance is amaizing. great job!

[bubblesxoxo1234]

@gueracenea Howie Day - Collide.

[xxxcHoCoPiExxx15]

how THE HECK IS THIS IMPROV... its just so good... HOW COULD THIS BE IMPROVE...

[KyliraMoon]

Beautiful...simple...breathtak­ing. Thank you.

[lazdaqbn]

this has definitely have to be the best routine i have ever seen in my life.. i would give everything to do what u did in that 3 minutes and 22 seconds. WOW!

[beemarieeeee]

incredible,brought tears to my eyes.

[neuroosilapsi]

Travis is unbelieveble.

[iTwinkleToes]

This is absolutely amazing. They feed off of each other so well...I can't even fathom how much I love it. :)

[hrryzdlr]

why does everyone equate gay with being awkward?

yes they dance very nicely together, and i did think that they were a couple, but why does that diminish what they just did?

i've always been a fan of travis, he was robbed i tell you, ROBBED.

[SEETHR0UGHMEx]

thattt was crazy amazing, especially for being improv. wow.

[estkong]

I love this video so much. Watched it twice yesterday, and it's my 2nd time watching it today. It's so full of emotion, and so well done.

The fact that they Improv'd it is amazing.

[rootbeerfan6]

Just amazing. Great job guys!!

[MakaiaEvangelyWolf94]

whats the name of this song

[dancergymnast09]

collide by howie day

[tdawgtou]

i honestly do understand and agree with people about this ance feeling a little awkward. the only reason, i think, though is because of the song. everything else is completely fine. the dancing, the connection, the art.

[boywithshades]

you two work well together. i like the constriction in space. i can tell there is a lot of love in this

[blogger88]

I'm just gunna say it..... It is beautiful!

[evanjoecool]

....not a fan... they could have picked a better song to do a guy's duet to.. I'm just gonna say it. Gay

[hollybp]

Beautiful movement, good connections throughout, and great feel for the music. Which to me means it was a great dance performed by real dancers.

[brecheisen1]

What the hell is so strange about it? Its art you small minded idiots!

[coffeesojourner]

Amazing dancers. Are they a couple? (it couldn't get any "gay"-er than that...

[missmellow12]

It was strange and beautiful at the same time.

[sdsamara]

no one else finds this akwardly brokeback? I'm not trying to put it down. I think they're both amazingly talented dancers and they both dance beautifully, but I found that with the words/tone of the song mixed with style of dance, it was akward to me as a whole.

[sleepribbon]

at risk of sounding closed-minded, i completely agree. i'm not saying its a bad thing, hell, maybe the world needs more of it, but the song and style of this just made it seem a little... well i like the way you put it.

[TotalCaptivation]

This is one of the most beautiful dances i have ever seen... i love you 2 with all my heart! never stop dancing travis and ivan ^_^

[jaemov]

thats awesome

[imaginelifeinJune]

insperation <3

[calolas80]

Ok.... that CAN'T be improv!! That's amazing! You guys are awesome.

[xxitslovexx]

Absolutely wonderful :D

[danseurenz]

they're my idols in season two

trivan :D

[geminorum657]

This is wonderful. I wish it weren't so dark though; I feel like I'm missing a lot of what they're doing.

[DaliaGy]

improv or not... thats simply sooooo perfect. people say that there is no perfection, but here u go. travis is amazing :)

[JonessodacoChris]

improv... hahaha ok ya right. Don't get me wrong there AMAZING... but thats clearly choreographed

[sunshiney99]

Really incredible. I've only just been introduced to their work. I wish this video weren't so dark, though; and is it just me or is the image distorted (stretched vertically)?

[Karlene7]

This is Howie Day's song, but it doesn't soundl ike him singing.

[tdawgtou]

it's an acoustic version

[blubberrobnob]

Ivan and Travis work so well together. It's gorgeous to watch.

[jupitergrl]

OMG what is wrong with that kid's hair?!

[selphiexfairy]

my guess is that they maybe "practiced" improv of this same song before?? haha... well you can tell it's not choreographed at least but I think that most of the time when people do improvisation in dance or music they still have a vague idea of what they are going to do, anyway.

great performance though! (:

[AXOBROOKE]

I am pretty sure that I don't even have words to describe how AMAZING this was!!! You are both incredibly talented dancers!

[jingzhui]

what is the name of the song?

[alspisak]

The song is "Collide" by Howie Day

[miniorangepanther]

I dunno about 100% improv either but most of it definitely is because I know they have great chemistry. They know each other so well and can feel each other no matter how far apart they are. I'm glad to see two great talents together. they really build off of each other and make the other a better dancer. Their movements compliment each other's very well. I hope to see much more from them in the future.

[lynleyxoxo]

two of my favourite guys from season 2!!

[DiscoXDeDe]

lovely. absolutely amazing.

[aideneatworld]

I really love how they are so in sync with each other...hard to believe that this is improv!

Amazing to watch, anyway.

[swerveon]

WOW - THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!

[JadeLycra2]

I'm going with Smartgirl13w.... I find it difficult to believe that this was entirely improv... It's either they put some thought into it, or they understand each other almost perfectly.

This was outstanding!!!

[bennyfresh4573]

lovelovelove<3

[doraff02]

I wonder if their friends in real life they seem to have chemistry.

[violalilli]

I'm sorry...what's the son please?Thanks

[keziamadness]

..how old are u??ur coo cute :))

[Smartgirl13w]

I'm gonna be weird and say that I cannot believe this is improv. Literally, This may not be choreographed to the second, but they seriously put some thought into this.

But I do love it, they are totally in sync, equals, but individually strong.

Their styles flow beautifully, and I can tell that they are feeling one another, complementing each other perfectly.

[cattyfuzzy]

Tight rope A balancing act But there is no balance with you Im wanting you in a different way Its not something I can win Our bodies so interwoven Were we friends even after You deny that frisson between us An angry mass of confusion You are still standing behind by my side I cant walk this line no more Youre only an inch away Yet a thousand miles apart Out of reach of these Tremulous fingers of mine

[ForeverIsabell]

wow they were awesome......i love ivan!!!!

[ladiiiLlo]

Work.....love it!

[jneily19]

has anyone seen or videod a version of this dance performed by our lovely boys at NYCDA 2007 Gala. I've seen a very short version of it and it was wicked! Bit different moves with different chair....If anyone has it pls upload.

A million gazillion thanks!

[callmewiggy]

incredible.

[jadelove277]

dude 1:42 to 1:56 was brilliant

[jadelove277]

i'm sorry. say that again. u said this was improv????????

it was beautiful. their coordination with each other was friggin awesome

[jneily19]

What a beautiful piece this is....It completely blows my mind that this is improv.! A choreographed piece couldn't be this moving and expressive. I simply cannot get this piece out of my mind. I wanna watch it over and over and over, each time noticing more details... I just wish the quality could be better, so I could see their l expressions and hand movements. Truly beautiful...The chemistry and understanding between the two of them is amazing. Well done Travis and Ivan, more please!!!

[raemando]

IMPROV?! GOSH...

I can't stop looking at Travis...he's so neat and sharp! Love him.

[tgetsbizzy]

Wow

amazing

[Joeinconcerto]

What's the song very please?

[ItsNotFunnyLOL]

Its  -- Howie Day - Collide

[shanlarren]

this might be more of travis' style, but i can see ivan's influence on it...

[theleahmoyer]

okay i just watched this on mute while my one friend freestyled on the guitar while the other rapped. and it was the most perfect combination... i cant even explain... cant even explain. incredible

[clburto]

You two are amazing Ivan is my fav. dancer from SYTYCD but i have to say travis and Ivan together are amazing!!!!

[1xhunniez]

Travis and Ivan are not gay!!

[purewhiteriver99]

i know that ivan isn't, but i'm pretty sure travis is, and it's not like it's a bad thing if he is (or really any of our business for that matter...).

[skyjoy22]

Hey Ivan!! This is Skylar from NYCDA! I soo remember watching this at the gala! AMAZING! I heard you guys were just improving! Is that true?

[urbandanzer]

They would make a cute couple!
