@8thwonder0608 while that was very impressive I was further impressed by 2:40 - 2:53 holy muscle control! This girl is a beast...in a good way...a very very good way :)
so i'd really like to thank you for being so real when you dance. some people just dance, but have blank expressions on their faces because they are so concentrated on their routine. you seem so real when you dance and perform each move as it wasn't planned and i can really see the emotion behind it.
I can't stop watching this peice! It's just so much passion Ashley puts into it I mean every line in her movement is amazing, THE TECHNIQUE. Omg I love it! 1:17-1:26 out of this world!
I have watched this clip so many times and I still can't get past the ending without tears. You shouldered that responsibility of sharing Darrell's pain, and did an excellent job. Rehearsing this piece must have been draining both physically and emotionally, but it's this piece that explains what dance is exactly, and why we do it. Dance has more emotional dimension than what we think. By far, this is my favorite clip on YouTube.
wow!! she's amazing and FIERCE!! love her!! I hope she continues working with Beyonce for a long long time... although B's taking a sabbatical year...:-(
This must be what it's like trying to get a nap on that I AM Tour :) cuz y'all are some beast - I have never seen a harder working group of ladies. Your performance is always AWESOME!
Wow. She's a beautiful dancer. I have to agree with Ckatz410. I've watch the video 5 times now. I'm hooked. Pie Jesu was an excellent choice. Beautiful!!! Simply Put..
she is soooo amazing the way she uses every single part of her body to portray the story its like listening with your eyes you forget she is dancing!!!
that was really amazing!!! I know this was choreographed by darrell grand moultire whom i've worked with since I was 10 years old and he's amazing at everything he does!!! She dances with such an ease,she makes it looks so easy! Very Nice!!
You remind me of Desmond Richardson in that you complete each and every movement - you are absolutely in tune with and engage each part of the body that is attached to each piece of the choreography (if that makes sense). I can't wait to see where you go down the road! I'll be watching!
Pieiz Eszu is the music. A shame this song was chosen for such a unique bit of choreography. The song is over played and boaring! An instrumental piece would have worked better and not taken emphasis from the movment. Again, another excellent performance. This girl is not only a dancer but and actress also, well done darl!
OMG She has a lot of strength, grace, and control!!! And flexibility..I love it and her performance quality. This was beautiful. Thanks for sharing this with us~
I think her mother said around the age of three. She's only 18 and she was suppose to attend Julliard this past year but she was on tour with Beyonce.
That performance was absolutely breath-taking. It actually brought tears to my eyes. The power that came from your movements were so inspiring and your movements told such an amazing story. Good luck with everything you do and I'm sure that with the grace that you dance with, you will go to amazing places! You are amazing!!!
SHE IS a BEAST!! I'm a FAN now! :)
