I really really really want to be able to do something like this. But at 20 years of age with only minimal dance experience, I think I'm way too old :(
From this video i just realized that dancing isnt just dancing it also envolves the emotion you put behind it and in an instant you can create something so tear- jerking amazing :)
So, is this dance sketch supposed to be about a girl having cancer? Cause, her hair is "shaved" and she is wearing pink....and she is scared and weak so.....plus the song XP
Please can anybody tell me the difference between "Lyrical dance" and "Contemporary dance" ? I really need to know. Are they the same ? Thanks for the answers, xoxo :-* Amazing performance though...! (L)
I love the move at 0:49 ! Sorry, I drew a blank on the name.. But I love it to do something that beautiful and pull it off with that much emotion, I LOVE IT! :)
THAT BACK JUMP AT 01:05 is just amazing !!! The amount of trust she must have put in him is just huuuuuge !!! To jump back like without looking back and knowing that at that particular time someone will catch you !! Imagine if have stumbled halfway ....!!!! OH MY GOD !!!!
i dance, and some people (who don't dance) don't realize how incredible the dance, the choreography and the dancers are. The dancers, have to think about how they move there WHOLE body ; toes, legs, arms (etc).... This is dance is breathtaking, and showcases GREAT dancers, who dance with a great 'emotion'.
@ErinLOVESmakeupxoxo the choreographer made this for his mom who was very sick at the time. Hopefully the song name and lyrics will help you figure it out from there.
this might be my favorite dance ever. such an emotional song and the choreography and the dancers match those emotions perfectly. it is absolutely beautiful <3
@lessadessa28 It's the fact that his mother was so sick and he (the choreographer) wanted to do everything he could to help her. That's why at the end he is walking her on his feet, carrying her and helping her along the way C: Such an emotional dance
@lessadessa28 Well, in short, according to the person who actually made the dance, his mom (I think?) had an illness, and they did everything they could to make her live before she died. In this piece, the one in pink symbolizes his mother, and the man symbolizes himself (the coreographer).
@koolax111 I thought it might be something along those lines...I thought they were representing a couple where the female is ill, but it touches me even more that it represents the choreographer's experience with his mom. Thank you for replying!
I can't watch this performance and not cry. Not only can I relate to it but I can feel the power, understanding and emotion that every movement holds.
chills throughout the entire thing.....Although I cannot personally relate to this perticular story, I feel the want to help allison(Travis's mom) from Robert's(Travis) preformance. Complete Brilliance
I dont understand how people can dislike this. It is utter brilliance and their timing is perfect! My school is using this for their rock challenge opening and i cant wait xx
just showed this video to my class as a presentation =) i was able to play it over and over again, and it never got old. it's so beautiful. my whole class appreciated it
THANK YOU TRAVIS for this gorgeous choreography, beautifully performed. Love the bits at the end where he pushes her legs with his nose, hand, and foot in sync with the piano chords, then settles his feet beneath hers to help her walk......... /swoon
@theatergeeksjk24601 At the risk of sounding like a spammer, you could use vidtomp3 (dot) com. You'd get the applause at the end, but you could always edit that bit out if you needed to.
does anybody know where i can get the cut of music from here? i need it for an audition and i can't find the specific selection anywhere. all i can find is the full song.
Did any fellow dancers notice all the movement was backwards? Like if the video was played in reverse, it would be normal? It's really subtle, but watch the movements closely...
Personally, I really don't like dance at all (typical guy), but I was shown this dance as part of a presentation in a class, and it really made me realize the physicality and beauty involved in a dance. This particular one brought a tear to my eye, because it reminds me so much of my Grandfather and his battle with Cancer. Bravo!
Man I can appreciate all kinds of music, painting, sculpture, martial arts, various types of dance, floral arrangment whatever! But I really don't like contemporary, and like super modern dance. I just don't get it. I'm not against it or anything, but uggh... personally I don't like it at all.
I've been dancing stopped dancing for two years now, after I saw this video I was hesitating if I wanted to dance agian. But this video inspired me so much I got the guts to post up my own video of me doing "contemporary" dancing. I'm not very good I'm quite stiff right now because I haven't been doing these sunts for two years but after watching this it makes me want to dance more than anything! please watch my video!
This is the most beautiful and touching choreography I've seen. Maybe its because I can relate. Sometimes we are that person deteriorating from the inside that needs our savior, someone who will fight for us the whole way. And sometimes we are the person giving our whole life to the one we love. Love is a strange and beautiful thing. Thanks Travis Wall, YOU ARE BRILLIANT. <3 much love
