[p00wn4g3]

IS THIS BEN WHO WON SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, AND HIS COUSIN WHO ALSO MADE TOP FOUR??

[TechPopper]

@p00wn4g3 yes

[jetcityhawk]

@p00wn4g3 Yes, that's Benji...the winner of the 2nd Season of SYTYCD. And yes, Lacey - the 4th place winner from Season 3 of SYTYCD is Benji's sister...not his cousin. (She's currectly a one of the Professional on "Dancing With The Stars."

[Bailairma]

I love this choregraphy ! and the song is AMAZING ! Absolutely the best dancers !

[cristianpizzi]

Alguien me puede decir quien canta el HIP HOP de esta coreografia...?

[cristianpizzi]

Alguien me puede decir quien canta el HIP HOP de esta coreografia...?

[pichuwithpichu]

Perfectos!!!!!



[Annasalsa]

just outstanding!!!

[elemay79]

 HEIDI AND BENJI ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

[gabomix69]

Heidi is Benji's cousin.

[shetaz905]

Unreal good.

[KissJustMimi]

I can't put my finger on it...but there's something hypnotizing about the way they move. I love watching them.

[dancingqueen1999]

havent watched this in a while but still....nothing can top it.absolute perfection.

its unbelievable.

[jstrudel7]

love it!! to think that these two would be the finalists in SYTYCD just a few years later . . . and great song choice!

[ollygirl1]

he dances best with her!!!

[Annasalsa]

@ollygirl1 it's not that he dances best with her - he is fantastic and able to dance with just about any female dancer young or old, but she is just as outstanding as he is... they are amazing perfectionists together - it's just wooow!

Same family, same dance school training?

Regards from oversees, I just love them!

[GosfordAbercrombie]

heidi is amazing!!!!!

[IMHOLUKE]

incredible, I could watch it all day

[CeceuPel]

what is the name of this song?

[StacyOnt]

Shackles by Mary Mary

[vientinho]

amazing

[itsmekestral]

I absolutely love Benji and Heidi. I love watching them dance together. I personally don't think Heidi and Lacey look that similar. You can tell they're family obviously but their bodies are different and they move *completely* different. Lacey's hot hot hot hot but Benji and Heidi just look great together. So much trust and talent. ~nod~

[Nyirmachabelli]

youre right, they move like they could do the whole thing blind - they always know the other persons moving with them.

[Br0nze]

Fuck... if Swing dancing requires ALL THIS, I have been climbing up the wrong tree with Latin Ballroom lol

This is astounding.

[4Tangerines]

These are my favorite dancers ! They sure can dance !!!

[nicky4meonly]

PERFECT side by side action.

[shan93cute]

this video reminds me when we won the super mambo world competition three years ago.

[cheernbhappy]

Heidi and Lacey really look alot like each other

[gullinvarg]

Not too surprising. They're cousins and were trained in the same style, so they move similarly. They might have both even been trained by Benji and Lacey's parents. The dark hair that Heidi is sporting in this video does make it even more obvious though.

[jaeleekilmet]

Isn't that Kenny the Page from 30 Rock? He can dance?

[Sk8rGrl07]

no... benji schwimmer and his cousin heidi.

the short little clip before it stops is jordan frisbee and tatianna mollman

[GoldenCherryRain]

incredible

[gonzalojosemolina]

I JUST become A FAN OF THOSE TWO DANCERS

[andrew097]

they are great but I must admit my eye is drawn towards her moremaybe its the red clothes ... There is just something stylish about her movement. his as well to be fair.

[Chattee41]

Then Benji is doing his job...the idea is he is the frame and she is the picture..always showing her off.

[ilybarbiegirl]

wats this song called????if u no plz tell me cuz i've been looking for it forever! tanx =)

[mtinaxx]

"shackles" i think

[LilFizzLuver]

Shackles by Mary Mary

[LoveNDancingMovie]

check out Benji on the PSA video of our page- and watch the trailer for Love N Dancing starring Amy Smart!

[boonesbabe]

I love this sooo much! They truely are an amazing partnership! I wished they still danced together though!

[x0onlyme0x]

They are sooo goood wooooo lol

[meredithchandler73]

I *love* these two dancers! It's even better that they are cousins and have been dancing together since they were kids. I can't watch them dance without smiling.

[kisakis1]

WOW

[joobledotz560]

lol i love how heidi sings along to the songs...god they're both soooo amazing.

[daviedance]

Question: Why wasn't every single seat filled and all available floor space occupied for this performance? This is an outstanding routine! Did anyone notice how Heidi touches the floor ever so lightly, like a cat on soft pads? Her hair even gleams with beams of reflected light at times. Their dancing is sooo great.

[younglove88]

can someone please tell me the name of this song?? PLEASE

[vbcat86]

Mary Mary- "Shackels (Praise you)"

[sockpuppet2052]

I LOVE YOU BENJI!!!

[Czerniakowska]

Nice to see two people with such stupid names making their way in the world.

[dannyradar]

hahahahhaha! i know, right! (:

[cici0788]

incredible. they dance fantastic together

[honeycookiemonster]

absolutely genious!!! those two fit really well together

[liina000]

how can they even last that long? it's like 3 minutes of heavy footwork.

[purplekitty1234]

From what I can tell this is a freestyle latin dance...I'm not understanding the comment on swing??? In any event, it's just freakin' great dancing!

[WinterNightz]

It's technically West Coast Swing. It's ridiculously sharp and latin-y for West Coast, but it's still WCS.

[purplekitty1234]

I LOVE THEM!

[gunslinger0012]

the best dance ive ever seen

[123Rockchild]

simply incredible

I hope they won the competition!

[Jahn1234]

einfach nur geil!!!!

[sadtomatogirl]

how exactly is this "swing"? I think they're amazing, but I don't get how this is swing.

[shilvhwaiixp]

Just quoting someone who responded below us. :)

"they are dancing here in the SHOWCASE div of WCS. diff rules. lifts allowed. social WCS and competition WCS in a CLASSIC div would not allow some of these moves"

[fluffygurl316]

i think this is more of a slower version of a salsa dance but it does look alittle swing because salsas more sexy..im a dancer i do all kinds of dancing so yeah.

[Windrunner007]

Love this - frickin' amazing.

[dancingqueen1999]

that is quite possibly the coolest west coast swing routine ive EVER SEEN.

[StacyOnt]

@dancingqueen1999 personally, i'm partial to the 2005 showcase routine

[mikiboy91]

amazing

[ailatanotos]

son maravillosos, una delicia verlos bailar!!

[EMS2002]

im pretty sure thats Heidi if you look WAY in the past her hair was pretty dark.

[TreeFunCutei]

what was the song that they did??

[jadedgurl86]

the song is both the original and dance version of the song "Shackles (praise you)" by Mary Mary...they are an awesome contemporary gospel duo :)

[nognog0314]

woaaaah best performance i eva seen in my entire life haha.,.,., that was Greeeeeeeaaaaatttttttttttttt..

[fierra07]

they're good!!

[lovemejazzy]

terrific!

[triciaplop]

facinating to watch, BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

[wolfee92]

i think it is heidi (i mean think really think)

lacey was 13

[zuraidda]

wow!!! amazing talent!!! i love shackles!!! nice song!

[melimelo123]

I can't get over it! You guys are awesome! You are each individually as fantastic to watch, so fluid, looks like water dancing!

[Queenjazzyjae]

NVM it's heidi...I had to see it again but she looks so much like lacey

[angaraz]

that his sister lacey!

[Queenjazzyjae]

yeah i was thinking the same thing because Heidi is skinnier...and plus lacey's body is built exactly like that.

[Rachacha58]

that's not lacey thats definatley heidi, it says it in their names in the song if you listen, just to let you know

[MadetoSmile]

I don't think Lacey's ever partnered Benji in the swing championships. It's usually Heidi.

[Skoalcwby77]

@Rachacha58 exactly! and in 2001, Lacey would have only been 13....and yes, Lacey is a very gorgeous young woman, but that is def not a 13 yr old lol

[kittiecrak]

no that's heidi lol. look at the face and the name :D

[MissBritneeLorez]

yea it said her name..maybe her hair was brown in 2001..

[malwinka001]

Mary Mary

[daviedance]

I just want to praise THEM!

[fluffypaine]

[Kakakakaylee]

[obscurity87]

wow that was insanely awesome

[mauderated]

[armandd888]

Perfect

[Kadila24]

I can notice some of the same moves in their routines, but they're great! I like how they add soo much of their fun personalites in it like the song had a rap about them. They're such awesome dancers!!!

If you watched the videos when they were young and see all the videos as they grow up you can see how they both grew so tall -- but they were great dancers since the beginning!

[lenelene2x]

so really quite good!!! all i can say is hmmmmmmmmmmm.....perfect!!!!!!­!!

[Marsali81]

HOLY CRAPOLA! They dance so quickly and so well it looks as if the video has been sped up! And sometimes the way they move their bodies looks like....god I don't know....I didn't know people could move like that!!

[zub0510]

besides that they are awsome,cans omebody tell me what's the name of the song they are dancing to?

[wolfzier]

[exploreryen]

Awesome!  They are great.

[Barbareeee]

thank you!

[Barbareeee]

what is the song called?

[aechy65]

"Praise you" By Mary Mary

[jadedgurl86]

Actually it's called "Shackles (Praise You)" by Mary Mary...but whatevs...I don't know where the mix is from...you might be able to find it on Itunes.

[ggslash]

what form of dancing is this. it says swing, but i saw other swings and it seems alot more all over the place liek flips, so whats this, is this like a ballroom swing, because i love this style. i want to learn it but what is this style?

[ameyoshida]

West Coast Swing.

[jadedgurl86]

West Coast Swing is different than what you're referring to, which is East Coast...WCS is more relaxed and smooth...to look almost effortless even though they're dancing their tushes off.

[ameyoshida]

I think this is pretty crazy. I mean, in 2001 hey were probably highschoolers. To be that talented in high school is just insane.

[musicandmeyaz]

This is so sick!!!

[daviedance]

It's just crazy how good they are. WOW!!!!!

[anmoroto]

Doesn't get better than this!!!!

[SoccerChick194]

i love watching benji and heidi dance together

[keirarox7]

are they cousins?

[SoccerChick194]

i'm almost positive they are

[jadedgurl86]

Yes Benji and Heidi are cousins...his younger sister is also a competitive dancer and all three competed on the show "So you think you can dance". Heidi was a finalist the same season Benji won and his sister, Lacey was a finalist the following season.

[xdarkxflowerx]

I can't find this remix *anywhere*... `le sigh. ♡

[sun1shine34]

i met both of them

[pixelpuppetpresents]

OMG!!!! i'd love 2 dance that way ,dude

unfortunatelly, there are no WCS classes in austria :(

[jullienne4ever]

What is the title of the music?

[slpng5]

Mary Mary: Shackles

[beautyemerald]

so nice to watch...... so gracefull....

[jsmrshn]

Watching Benji always gives me goosebumps. I absolutely love him. Thanx for sharing. ;)

[beaufordjohnson]

Such cool dancing...

Such sh*tty music...

Why....?

[Tateaink]

WOW, i love this danceee. Heidi and Benji, and Lacey are just AWSOME

[sexyback1810]

that was amazing!

[dvoe625]

KIKK

[chaoticXharmony]

its amazing how together they are. i actually like this dance better than the james brown routine they did in 2005

and to anyone posting porn websites - STOP DOING THAT. NO ONE IS WATCHING THIS TO SEE NAKED GIRLS. POST YOUR PORN ADS ON SOME PUSSYCAT DOLLS MUSIC VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rawru]

you know that is a good point, as much as I loved the 2005 choreography they just seem to be more fluid in this one

[jadedgurl86]

Yeah the do seem a little more "on" in this routine and the fluidity is awesome.

[zzMrSmileyzz]

They're so good. Fantastic dancers.

[stal1ng]

eh...cheerleaders...

[bloodsplurt007]

great moves... i love it!!!!

[DBNY931]

Now they are two, FANTASTIC dancers! I can't believe they dance that GOOD!!!

[JFarmsGirl]

luv that song they're dancing to, also benji's signiture move with the cartwheel, i think thats awesome how he fits it into alot of the dance routines he does including the ones in SYTYCD for 2006

[Ben8088]

I just want to praise God too.  Nice moves. Wow.

[androoks]

I think this was Benji's best performance to this date. He was so smooth he kept reminding me of Fed Astair. Then I saw another clip where Benji said he is actually going to play Fred's role in a movie about Fred Astair's life ! AWESOME dancing couple!

[Quilbo]

omg, they're great

[kwiny91]

Absolument epoustouflant

[alternate00email]

ok - i really hope they won that

[HatefulShinobi]

x3

Amazing.
