[katiestrophic3]

yo the guy is sooo good! i couldn't take my eyes off of him! the girl was good too

[CoutureDolls]

ayeeee canadians ftw<3

[xchiaroscura]

2:20 So good

[jazmynmrd]

wow that was amazing

[kitkatdancer101]

that was beautiful <3

[kdancex99]

i know this sounds stupid, but i have been doing this move for so long, but my dance eacher never says what its called... 0:31 ?

[BlissfulBumbleBee]

@kdancex99 sorry, I'm not sure of the French spelling, but it's called a ponche (pawn-chay) I'm pretty certain

[kdancex99]

@BlissfulBumbleBee sorry, i actually meant the move he does at 0:32 ? x

[BlissfulBumbleBee]

@kdancex99 tour jete?

[paigeypaigedancer]

those that are crticizing dance competitions dont know half of it. thats how most dance costumes are it shows off the dancers figure. These two dancers definantely danced from the heart their dancing was impecible i cant wait 2 see where they are now! Amazing!!!!

[BenefitsBadGal]

Beautifulbut her costume doesn't really suit the dance !

[MILEYMONTANAx]

I thought it was a great dance but I definitely agree with what everyone's saying about the costumes. But on a more important note, at most points I felt that they were both dancing two different dances. I realize the idea of the dance was to basically just acknowledge each other but even at those parts, it seemed like they didn't realize the other was even on stage with them. The actual dancing and technique was very good though.

[GreysonKk]

As a dancer, I'd like to say that this duo was BEAUTIFUL!! The technique is amazing, and I think the fact that the costumes aren't exactly corresponding adds even more beauty to the dance. Great job(:

[MattNPhilly]

Great quality!!

[DancingCrazy4Life]

I hate competition dancing. It always seems so fake and most of the girls are far too skinny. Put some clothes on and dance from your heart please.

[Jesiraigh]

Awesome routine!

Best duet I've seen in a long time!!

She has amazing texchnique and her extensions are right on.

Some classical dancing would have been awesome during the chorus.

XD

Great job!! <3

[chawnyfez]

her outfit is wayy to ladm.

but they were both really good. i just didnt like the whole him in jeans and their outfitsd like not matching.

[rememberxxremember]

wow! little guy's leaps are FIERCE!

[bluecrushce2]

the costumes are the only thing you people have to comment on?...wow

[cowgirlM]

her costume is too revealing for a young girl....but the talent is sure there.

[TrinneLovesAll13]

The outfits annoy me, but the dance was great (:

[Littletutty]

que orror de niña :S

[DancinBetch]

the boy is amazing his smile is soo magical i love it <3

[xocaitlin88ox]

well, I think it is obvious, no one likes the girls outfit.. my deal is that I can't stop looking at the weird face/mouth she is doing throughout the whole dance.. idk... the boy is pretty awesome tho!.. Not a fan of the song.. I think it would have been better if the boy did it with someone else.

[ADMsissy]

i think they are both talented but i think the boy shows more emotion and my oppion is without emotion its just moving around to a song but i did think it was good

[bloodgushingsquirrel]

someone needs a spray tan.

[skibbyskibinski]

The girls arms! they r to lose! ah! its a good dance but her arms r everywhere!!!!!! and the cosume im so confused about! it was really a great dance but those 2 things just bothered me a lot

[maggie6754]

I think he dancing´s good, I don´t really like girl´s costume coz it´s not matching with the boys...but what I wanted to say - I think they´re just to young, it lacks real emotion but it´s just because they´re so young, they don´t have much needed experience. in spite of that they´re great :)

[norwegiandancer91]

Very good dancers, their technique is amazing (: All though I think they would've performed a lot better if they had actually put some feelings into the movements. I think the performance was a bit stiff and sort of dry, which is as far away as you can get from a lyrical dance. The girl should've used a different costume as well, something to match her partner. Would've given a better flow in the dance.

[christaleschert]

I found her upper body to be really over exaggerated and unnecessary. and when she sat on the bench she had her legs in a very wide second, showing off her crotch...a lot. He is a GREAT dancer! The choreography was good except the lifts were very ballet, i would have liked to have seen some more modern, interesting lifts. Overall though, great piece. :)

[trapezedawn]

Love to see what they are doing now. They danced so beautifully as youngsters!!!

[TheBeccaK17]

I don't like her outfit for this dance.:/

I loved the dancing though.

[livedreamimagine]

i think i remember that boy..haha cause ive competed against joanne chapmans school of dance before. youe from canada right?

[NathanEspejo]

Hi! Nathan was 14 yrs old at the time. He was in grade 8. He is currently 17yrs. old. I haven't had a chance yet to put up more recent videos. I will soon. Thank you for all your constructive criticisms and your compliments. It is greatly appreciated.

A proud dance mom.

[georgiaannethorne]

How old?

[amandalea12]

i know some ppl are saying tht her costume was supposed to look "rich" while his was supposed to look "poor"...but really, she looked awful in it. Maybe do a "rich" looking dress or something...not a freaking bikin! bleh! i loved the dancing tho, he is a beautiful dancer

[boosted1tc]

This was a weird dance the costumes did not match.. I didn't like it..

[something787]

nice piece, but i also agree with the costuming advice...

[TheTaylorNC]

i agree with the costume statement, she should have worn something that looked like a dress or something along those lines. it looks like they are meeting on the street or something.

[patriYflorin]

Muyyyy bonitooo!!!(LLLLL)

[jasmineluvsu69]

I don't understand the costume choices..

Good dance though.

[JONASBrothersFREAK40]

beautiful ! amazing job

[smilesaregood4]

i really like this dance but some parts looked almost awkward. Probably because there so young

[Madzville1]

wow so young yet so talented

[alicia331651703]

awsome :)

[Monstrumas]

girl is awesome!

[cowlover42]

i see a story herre:

the girl is like a more wealthy type (thats why here costume is more fancy ish) and the boy is like more poor ish. and they meet and try to have their little romance and the girl is playing hard to get while the boy is in love with her, and at the end they both just walk away.

i would have loved too see, though, that at the end, they ended up together to create more of a story, but it was still an amazing dance!

[ohshizlgzngahr]

Both are so strong! Especially the boy!

[mashedpotatoes97]

i think that either the girl should have a more casual costume or the boy should have a fancier one.other than that it was a great routine the girl had beautiful extensions

[kittynamiaimee15]

Adorable, I wish the choreographered would have utilized this powerful song a little better and I would have liked to see him use those muscular arms for even mroe lifts but it was a cute routine :)

[sytan22]

Beautiful!! tho a lil advice. work a lil harder on controlling ur movements. =)

[dancingangel507]

This piece would have been a lot better if the girl wore a costume that went along with the guy's costume. It didn't match at all, just looked like the same outfit as she wore for another dance or something. Good dance though.

[Fotinaki1993]

absolutely amazing.

[nickisdancin]

cheese ball performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[thehuntforhunter]

The girl was a little awkward.

The guy did beautifully.

Her pale skin kind of drew my eyes to her, but if you watch the boy, he is talented.

[danggitscarol]

how old is the guy? he has muscular arms but he looks so young.

[hallieandrachel]

they are amazing together!!

[xoxoMADinLovexoxo]

oh man

next year

imma be in DY

nathann yhure my chopp ;)

NEXTT YEARR WOOT

SAYME SKOOL

[greenemerald152]

hes so cute~

[kherbear12]

she has BEAUTIFUL lines! <3

[roxynikko2]

wow that girls got some long legs!!

[XxmainstagexX]

I KNOWW!! But what was great is she was fully aware of her limbs and wasn't awkward at all

[SEETHR0UGHMEx]

what is the girl's name?? she had amazing lines. really pretty dance, although they look really young.  they both had great technique. and i love that song :)

[titsjd]

[L] song! MY FAVE! but i dont see the storyline to your dance. but girl your an immence dancer

[lyndouninette]

no emotion!!!

[beautifuldancer]

This chreo was absolutely beautiful, stunning even! Also, xXluv44Xx, that is stage makeup, all dancers wear dark makeup when they perform or else the lights wash them out and they look extremely pale and it's unattractive.

[xXluv44Xx]

dat lipstick was way too old for her she shouldve went natural

[letsgoskitzo]

I agree with Bigedslayer123.

[Bigedslayer123]

Great careo, but they look to young for this. Should have olders dancers for this

[dancearecul]

I'm not a fan of "dance team style" dances....they just seem so....idk

you know what i mean?

kind of expressionless, and stiff

[dancerpixproductions]

very good but the girl has akward hands and feet. but very graceful :)

[jackerzsnackerz]

she doesnt look so happy

[lyndouninette]

yes exactly! the dance is so cold!

[kaylabrittany08]

Awesome Job, both of you have beautiful technique and strength. One thing I would work on is your guys' chemistry. Its a very hard thing to master but it makes a world of a difference.

[JONASBrothersFREAK40]

omg thats such a beautiful dance

well danced, amazing job :)<3

[tomska398]

Really great job! Love the girls beautiful lines and both of them have great strengh and control. Keep dancing!

[niiikkkiiii]

really goooddd :)

[pinkydance]

bad costuming... girl should of been in casual cloths as well..

[jags75]

good job maddy lol this video is old :P and good job nathan.

[chicklets317]

long legs beautiful dancer long legs make everything look soooo amazing great work!!!

[emma8526]

this is so cute! i love this one. but the girl is a good dancer but kinda awkward at times. good job!

[aleeDances]

i agree :D

[strbryte713]

I love these dancers...who are you....why haven't i seen you before....where can I find you....when can I come in and teach?

[Hollabaqq13]

Maybe he has flat feet becuase I do. I point but it seems like I don't.

[violentxtears]

omg,this was so cuute,i loved it!

[butt0nup]

it got kinda repetitive... but it was good. I do agree that his kicks looked kind of awkward unpointed though.

[iluvgreen33]

beautiful dance!

[PrEtTy10ALLY]

wow...that was beautiful..yall make it look so easy

[danciewancie]

he needs to point!!!

[woooaah92]

hey! i seen you at the workshop yesterday :)

[iDanceThereforeiAm]

it doesn't matter about the costume u don't need a good costume to dance well

[Jbiz1992]

I LOVE YOU BOTH!!!!

[AWPINC]

THIS IS SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!

GOOD JOB!

[faggleu]

i really hope the judges caught that he does all of his turns with a bent supporting knee!!!

and to be honest this guy looks like a joke. and he's just a prop on stage. rediculous.

[tami4502]

i think they both did exactly what they were supposed to do

a guys role in this sort of dance is to support the girl, make her look good

that's exactly what he did so good on him

i thought it was great

[shadow331099]

i like it..but u really have to feel it the whole way because if dont it shows but that waz great!

[eamcismine]

wow that was really good!!!!!!!!

she has the longest legs lol those extensions were wow lol :)

cool! loved it!!!

[xxkaitlynsaraxx]

this is amazing i just REALLY wish she had a different costume cus like he hase jeans on and she looks like a bathing suite

[ChyrstynMariah]

mmm...im thinking someone forgot their actual costume at home and had to improvise instead haha. but she had beautiful legs so it really doesnt matter.

[omgitsniki3]

whats with her costume ahah?

[cassidymoomoo]

this is really good. i lovee her costume

[DanceSpecialtiesLtd]

1. that was really good

2. i hate when they put the speakers in the middle of the stage where you dancing

[AmPeDdAnCeR]

i LoVeD iT!!

[dancer3492]

AMAZINGG .

[gfgtbfc]

the guy does nothing most of the dance!! when he does something it is the almost the same thing before!

[kirstycooper01]

the boy is brilliant

[outxfromxunder]

I agree with all the costume comments. They really don't match and hers doesn't really go with the song. A dress would've been better... But they looked great together and it was very young Dirty Dancing-esque.

[cocobeen16102]

she does those lifts by her self! but pretty dance!

[NatalieDances247]

I agree about the costumes not really working...But I really liked this dance. I love duets though...I know it was deliberate, but I didn't like the flexed feet on some of the kicks

[l3ap5andturn5]

if i see another prep turn imma puke

[luv2dancebj]

wow rly good!!

[dancerxxgirl24]

the costumes dont match at all...

[Meghan4ever]

shes rlly boney...hes kinda cute..i love this song!! it was ok

[BubblesAMD93]

bad costumes...bad dance...bad connection between the boy and girl...no real lifts...good song though

I HATE this dance!

[SuperKelsmo93]

they r so graceful and work really well together!!

love it

[McNLT]

i love this dance!

the guy is hawt!

tehehe.

[McNLT]

haha you're last name means mirror in spanish. :)

[HelloDarlingILY]

That's the wrong form of 'your'.

So pretty much, you said "You are last name means mirror in spanish"

lol sorry it was bothering me.

[screamoballerina]

Joanne Chapman OWNS!!!

[mpoampoa]

really great. BUT the dance had a bit too mush running around in it, got a bit repetitive.

[dancertab]

that girl has beautiful limbs... she uses them so well when she dances. love it.

[CaDo17107]

omg, that studio (Joanne Chapman's) is where i live! its going to be my studio soon...i think

[lakenessa]

the only think i didnt like was that the girl had a very costumy look and the guys costume didnt...

he didnt stand out much=/

but i absolutly love the dance!=Ofantastico=D

[crzypandabear]

I think the guys costume fit the dance better. Hers was a bit too jazzy, a bit too flashy. Great dance though! How old are they?

[dancerman07]

really good the only thing was the jeans i know they are baggy but jeans only give so much and there were some parts that could have been enlongated or higher but other than that is was really good

[jnc27]

Wow!  That was awesome!

[BrieLarsonfan123]

wow!! Absolutely beautiful! Amazing Technique and great chemistry! I loooove that song as well!
