Kennedy Center Honors awarded to Jacques d'Amboise

I just saw the 1983 documentary about Jacques d'Amboise and the National Dance Institute, "He Makes Me Feel Like Dancin'." The young man making the introduction here was one of the little kids in the film! One of the most beautiful, inspiring films- and a testament to why we should not be cutting arts education in our schools.

I ACTUALLY LOVED THE ORIGINAL DANCE BETTER THAN THIS I REMEMBER WHEN THEY WERE CHANGING IT SO THAT WE COULD PERFORM WE THE DANCERS WERE SO UPSET LOL IT CAME OUT GOOD THOUGH. GOD BLESS THE LITTLE GIRL IN THE YELLOW I HEARD SHE PASSED DUE TO A HORRIBLE PERSON IN NEW YORK
