18th Floor Balcony

[26Ruby26]

beautiful! all that's missing is some facial expression! the choreography itself has emotion but it's not reflected in the dancer's face

[MaeOdden]

omg blue october! not only does she do amazing choreography work but she chooses the BEST artist to dance to!!!!

[emyblueish]

Absolutely breath-taking

[CloverBubbles13]

katieeeee!! do u do workshops for other studios?? cuz it would be amazing if u did one for ours! I absolutely love your choreography ALL OF IT! :) I am serious about the workshop thing! that would be sucha blessing!

[Laiitastical]

I love all of these dancers but I've noticed they don't do many turns in their dances.. I wish they did.

[taryndancer29]

@Laiitastical

yeah but you don't need turns to make a dance effective

[Laiitastical]

@taryndancer29 I never said a dance needs turns but I noticed they don't ever do any and wish they had. I like turns..

[violin0728]

Amanda Hejna is younger or Emily Hejna?

[taryndancer29]

@violin0728

Amanda is younger

[baohong92]

1:11 i fall in love ..



[XMercian]

forgive me, bored now. Her moves have no fluidity at all. This is not down to the dancer but the choreographer. It appeared to me more the like of a Kata that you practrice in Karate than a dance, descriptive or not. Dress this young lady sequins and place shoes upon her feet... I would still know this choreograhers work. Forgive me.

[atittudetimes2]

i dont get why she always films at different studios???

[yesixox]

i love this song and dance

[DaisyLeexxx]

Which one is her sister?? :)

[SoronaGenevieve]

@DaisyLeexxx emily

[melinabanana]

strong. POWERFUL!!! beautifuuuuuul

[dancinggirljess141]

these are all so inspirational, can see the stories behind all the dances. amazing dancers and choreography!!!. would love to see more videos :D

[101yellowpuppy]

what type of dance is this called?

[candycandyissodandy]

@101yellowpuppy contemporary :)

[RebeccaSierraFilms]

@101yellowpuppy  lyricall. think?

[JonathanDavis82396]

@RebeccaSierraFilms its contemporary(:

[xsiemone]

So in love with your choreography! 

[valerieASL]

:)

[victoriabassline]

This choreography is lush!! i love it how every single dance tells the story and captures the emotion of the song. The dancers are beautiful and so talented and i love it how some how in every dance they seem kind of child like its hard to explain but they just capture the moment

[almiba5]

@victoriabassline Maybe it's because most of them are children? They're all under 18 in this company. I'm sure that's not the entirety of what you meant. Just thought I'd point that out :)

[blueeyedblkchk16]

oh my goodness:)jst wonderful

[jodykym1]

i firmly believe a dancer is beyond amazing when you actually notice the choreo not the dancer as she has done her job, and very well! as for the choreo- i loved it. thansk you both for this peice

[skeilak]

I'm no expert in dance. I don't even particularly even like dance. I usually find it, kind of boring.

But, I've always found everything from the Beyond Words company, both the dancers and the choreography, to be amazing!

And I found this performance, to be no exception.

[JamesMooreWhitePower]

@theraviolicat2 only dance she does is lap dance in her run down gay bar for morbidly obese retards

[theraviolicat2]

@JamesMooreWhitePower He has to go to the club where they lift him by crane in a harness and lower her onto the other guy so the skeilak doesn't crush the him. Besides it's hard for him to dance with his club foot.

[SIMPLYSKYEE]

i watch this daily. i really love this.

[taryndancer29]

how old are the hejna sisters? which one is older? both so amazing!

[spoiledbby1]

@taryndancer29 i believe emily is older but im not sure how old

[hollyesque]

she gorgeous :) 

[shellyshakeup]

nice technique, but it didnt seem like you actually felt the music. at all.

[nicrendesigns]

Beautiful!

[suleavingparadise]

Amanda's really amazing. She might be similar to her sister, but i think she also has something different about her. :)

[terikssonasp]

c'est formidable!

[bathtubluver4ever]

I love how this dance connects to the music in a really different way. I feel like a lot of dances that do connect to the music are slow and soft, but making this robotic makes the audience and the dancer connect in a different, but just as effective way. Great work. I love this dance.

[meimeiWo3]

Emily and her as a look..it amazes me. and they are what one calls DANCERS!!

[trinichica18]

beautiful!!!! what song is this??

[belgrave123]

@trinichica18 18th floor balcony by blue october

[trinichica18]

@belgrave123 thank u :)

[caspertheghost94]

amazing dance, choreo and dancer.

except. i feel like this song calls for something more personal and emotional

little less robotic,

and something the dancer can really feel.

just my opinion.

beauitful dancing though.

[gigi5488]

this is beautiful!

[toshQa]

awsome!

[DancerJoKo]

Thank you! Loved it!

[kate123480]

wow im a dancer but im know where neer as good as your dancers there amazing keep up the good work!!!!!!!! :) --kate123480

[The65lass]

fantastic....

[iDanceThereforeiAm]

0:41 when the song says "god" ... amazing moment..

[danceislife1996]

i love how these dancers dance in the music. . . its breathtaking to watch :)

[GianneDaSamurai]

She and her sister are both wonderful to watch.

[0o0shawty0o0]

@GianneDaSamurai omg didn't realise that Emily and Amanda are sisters!

[Greendayfan2121]

@0o0shawty0o0  Emily, Amanda and Claire look like GREAT dancers!!!!!!!!!!!1

[0o0shawty0o0]

@Greendayfan2121 who is claire?

[LPAdancer2690]

@0o0shawty0o0 another hejna sister lol. the youngest i think

[ec50000]

@LPAdancer2690 yeah shes the youngest. shes in my grade, same school. i sorta no her. so yaaaaaaa... awesome dance

[suleavingparadise]

@ec50000 Claire's the youngest, not Amanda.

[RetroMinds]

the hejna sisters are amazing dancers. :)

[adelaidebliss]

This is amazing choreography. She dances it beautifully.

[MGPMGP18]

kool

[XxbellatragediaxX]

So gorgeous.

[dancechik1995]

Love the dance, the music and the coreography! Its amazing and I absolutely love it, but the dancer needs to show a little more emotion in the movments....

But still a great peice!

[AlishaTyler]

i agree! she needs to connect with the audience more

[kate123480]

@AlishaTyler danceing isnt about conecting with the audience its about showing people who you are through music and dance!!

[BigCityDreams1xo]

@AlishaTyler you're not dancing for the audience, you're dancing for yourself. (=

[wietskedorenbos]

can't stop watching this, I JUST LOVE IT, amazing !

[s1dancer008]

i just met this girl this weekend:) we were vips together at jump in chicago. sweetest girl ever!

[csurvivor7]

Amazing dancer!! I LOVE your dance company!

How old is she?

[scenekids11]

you always have my favorite songs!! Kate<3!

:D

[HHMN4]

all of the Hejna's are so talented...jealous.

[acdancing]

awesome choreography!!!

[Lilyannah07]

wow beautiful :)

[xhaze56xxx]

The dancers at this studio are good. But her choreography is weird. And they never do leaps? Or any jumps of some sort.

[petiteindigo]

Um what does that have to do with anything? Her choreography is intricate and very complicated. Her dancers have to have musicality and strength to complete the movement. Leaps and jumps are great but its not the only why to make movement come to life. She creates art... art is often different or heck " weird ", but that's where the beauty lies.

[Belovochka]

Totally agree with you!!! Her choreography is uniqe and amaizing! I'm her fan from Moscow))

[aimsyj]

its just her style. i love it but i suppose it is a bit different. they do do jumps but just not your typical competition choreograph but i suppose some people like that better.

[coold00dfasho]

dancing is not about leaps or jumps. this choreography is brilliant.  so profound...in a good way.

[aaynurfull]

beaaautiful.. katie jablonski u rock !!

every choreo & every music ur taking is so musical and touchy.

Keep up the good work..

Much love & respect

[OmgLookOverThere]

Its Not Ballet.

[butt0nup]

You can go ahead and dislike ballet, but your comment's just ignorant.

[lexmark136]

did I once say it was ballet?

you failed

[shiningstar0721]

its lyrical ;) or wait r u saying this to someone else or r u just commenting bout it...cuz this is a lyrical dance for all tht dont know...

[llyynnaasshh]

@shiningstar0721 more contemporary than lyrical ...love

[lbug99]

contemperary..

[dancetillthend]

[xCisco1]

[drummerjwalk]

[danceruluv]

[iperpa]

I have competition in a few week and i need to order new dance shorts. does anybody have a favorite brand or a certain short that they like?

[uhhhgirlxoxo]

[09stardancer]

i LOVE watching your work=) yu have choreographed the most inspeiring dances=) yu are wonderful=)

<3 meaghan

[dancertab]

Kate, I love how you use each little part of the music. Like, if I had put the computer on mute, I could still probably figure out that she was dancing to this song b/c all the accents and movements to the lyrics. Great job to you and your dancer. Love your work, as I always say. SYTYCD choreographer in the near future!

[aaynurfull]

sytycd NEED some choreographers LIKE HER!

well said

[ivacha]

nice

[shinan0gans]

she looks like maci from

teen moms on mtv

[dancemecrazy]

I love to watch your work especially this. It's interesting where you pick your focal / accent points in each song. I admire the risks you take also. Big fan of everything you do.

[Auzidanzrk8]
