Contemporary Dance How-To HILLARIOUS

[@kylehanagami]

Can we just take a second and talk about how brilliant this video is?

[@timmilgram]

Seriously! This might be the funniest thing I've ever seen

[@JoelGasu]

I've watched it several times and I'm still laughing about it!

[@MegaJoshroberts]

Go to sleep bi*ch was brilliant!

[@matthoskins86]

idk seemed kinda gay

[@SandyLeveque]

YUP! Genius!

[@ScottForsyth]

Not gonna lie... I laughed out loud. well done.

[@pratherat]

I liked your comment cuz I lol'd too, but mostly because Forsyth is probably the coolest name ever.

[@bradl8887]

Thank goodness you didn't lie! I'm glad you prefaced your comment by telling us you weren't going to lie. Do you usually lie?

[@SASJKL]

***** i'm not gonna lie, but i normally lie regardless of whether i preface it with the statement "i'm not gonna lie."

[@sonniwalter577]

Scott Forsyth we got showed this in music today and I was crying

[@gabs4569]

why you were here ?? scott forshyt hehe

[@HaleyGetsDistracted]

"Its a brief moment where you show the audience your wawaha." XD LOL

[@OhMJB]

As a dancer I find this hilarious in its accuracy

[@queensnake3957]

Yep imma dancer too

[@sarahbellee.bradburn8760]

Right?! Uhh it’s funny cuz it’s true.

[@phoenic96]

SO TRUE

[@selenahairston9802]

OhMJB sameeee ahaha

[@issyxox8416]

*as a dancer*

[@sabrinamarley1023]

the accuracy of this is so perfect it hurts

[@Jamesgangcreative]

And one only has to SCCREEEEEEEECH watch a WOOOOOOOOOOO few minutes of any of the dance WHEEEEEEEEEE shows AHHHHH SCCREEEECCCCCH Banshee WOOOOOO WEEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOO on tv and you will see HHHHHEEEEEEIIIIIIIi AAAAAAA WHOOOOOOSH it all. "I want to win because if I win I can then teach others to do this same thing." WWWOOOOOO HOOOOOOO WHOOOOOOOOOOT WEEEEEEEE

[@fairydust15]

I'm never going to be able to watch a piece of contemporary dance with a straight face ever again haha

[@alCjnth]

I know the feeling. xD

[@Jamesgangcreative]

You mean you HAVE been able to watch contemporary dance with a straight face before? :-)

[@katelinetennant1858]

How? It wasn’t that funny?

[@katelinetennant1858]

Period not question mark

[@sapphichorrors]

I love contemporary. I am an actual dancer.

[@keishaizawesome2836]

"The peakaboo where you give the audience a quick look at your wawaha" LMMFAO

[@alianna8806]

+Keisha Thomas Yes that was my favourite also

[@keishaizawesome2836]

Lmao its still hilarious

[@keishaizawesome2836]

After all this time

[@HowToScriptCroatia]

Its still hilarious

[@freshlove7926]

Keisha Thomas - 😂😂😂

[@OnTheCheapTip]

This is seriously my favorite video on KZbin. The Blind Man Playing Volleyball makes me laugh so hard. Can I just be Robert Hoffman? My first name is Robert so I'm already half way there.

[@pandoratonks4429]

Are you living on a prayer?

[@rucca2008]

I love “your having a really bad day”, “seriously get your damn hands off of me?!?!”😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@mteaches]

I've spent thousands of dollars on my daughters contemporary dance lessons. Who knew I only needed to have her watch this video!

[@Jamesgangcreative]

And that the word awesome was never used makes it even more awesome.

[@Startupsandsushi]

KZbin education academy!

[@kaureenc]

i have actually learned a lot and laughed at the same time

[@oOJoe22Oo]

"Say hello bich..." "Hel-" "Okay."

[@nokiahmotorz01]

You forgot to mention the "Well, hello there" in which you sassily walk off stage like someone really attractive just came into the room 2:43 - 2:45

[@OnTheCheapTip]

Haha!

[@mimi9220bert]

OMG! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

[@zoeh2359]

haha yessss

[@youssefgamil7990]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@hannahreichelt7131]

THIS IS THE MOST UNDERRATED COMMENT EVERRRRR

[@HansonJ]

Hi, I’m Renata Bliss, and I’m your freestyle dance teacher.

[@asdrugrohl]

I'm a contemporary dancer and we do name our moves like that, it is so funny because it sounds like it is just a joke but later it looks beautiful.

[@alfiekennedy]

Asdru Grohl omg same in Matilda the musical the moves that I did were literally titled things like “ew there’s a spider” and “my bellies exploding with chocolate” 😂

[@mavenlives4279]

So true. My dance teacher choreographed a move called The Out of Control Train the other day

[@bulkingup]

It is a very funny joke and it looks hilarious!

[@mollyquade7521]

The way he walked off at the end of the dance. I'm crying!

[@thediabolicalempath7246]

Molly Jane Quade The contemporary walk.

[@SomeThingsAreNice]

lmao never will I be able to see a contemporary dance piece without this in mind

[@punchrobert]

A movement response to How to Contemporary Dance Ladies and gentlemen, this is my mentor. She taught me how to dance. She is the only one in the world who can pull off all of the 15 contemporary dance steps in SLOW MOWSHIN. Watch and learn.

[@mariaculligan98]

Don't know about that... you and gal friend pulled it off pretty nicely! ;-) Another of you two please... This time no Eric! Just Rob and Krystal :-) a happy, romantic, fun one pleasy please!!

[@JenFrankel]

AWESOME. And she managed to put herself to sleep with her own foot!

[@justinbieberreal5564]

Incredible!

[@jennifernewman4121]

She's amazing! Particularly at the end.

[@HoChiMints2007]

AMAZING

[@kingkingjustin]

As a big fat SYTYCD fan, I can confirm this. and the finish is from Kent and Neil's routine "How it ends" LOL

[@271skippy]

Hahaha this is so funny! And painfully accurate... Haha

[@jnanafish]

All contemporary dance routines look like this!

[@sapphichorrors]

I’m lowkey offended by that. Contemporary is not just something you can learn in 15 steps. It takes a lot of work.

[@bulkingup]

Yes it is. The most funny part is they take themselves seriously

[@melissaguthrie6851]

"Say hello bich" *waves* "..Hel-" "Okay." hahaha

[@LeendaDProductions]

AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAH oh my gosh this was hilarious

[@cadetwolf1234]

I really hate this Google+ crap. I want to see actual comments on the video, not everybody's "Hey, check out this video I found on the internet" blog.

[@gesslar]

Those _are_ comments on the video.

[@brandtfajerman4858]

The knee The pants Zombie with emotion I just came out of a well The brat The blind man The pewp The elbowless hug The bounce This is your head Srsly get your hands off me Peekaboo Leg The magnet Why is your head in my hand Go to sleep Bich

[@steezystudio]

Commenting to boost in the algo because people be replicating this classic on other socials right now 😤😤

[@davidkutcher2698]

Having sat through more moderne dance performances than I care to count, I believe this to be a fairly accurate depiction. However, I find it to be missing two quintessential moves: rolling on the floor as if to put out a fire, and attempting to sit up from the floor but lack the energy to do it. Bravo!

[@RobertaT]

HIlarious!

[@ashleythughes]

YES!!! the "I've fallen and I can't get up" move. (attempting to sit up) so classic modern.

[@MirahAmmal]

There is also the running in a circle to show the passage of time and the post-modern creating your own soundscape by turning off the music and breathing really hard.

[@ceilidhjean4]

OMG you totally forgot, "I just punched my own self in the guts"

[@lydiatheglimmermaid]

cj4dancemom YAAAAAASSSSSS

[@celeste6258]

I will never be able to look at contemporary dancing the same.

[@lynette599]

True....hahaha

[@cobymicheals9450]

"Go to sleep bich*" LMFAO...that was kinda good deciphering for contemporary dance :P I love you Robert (I mean contemporary Eric)!!!

[@foxgloves1598]

Ahhhh my god I remember a couple years ago I was messing around and did the “peekaboo” and somehow managed to smash my face into the hard wood floor.

[@diezombies100]

her legs are amazing

[@paulthompson9668]

Emma May Hello from 4 years into the future!

[@punchrobert]

Tribute to "Contemporary Eric" Ok, so, here's my critique. Some of your dancers forgot to dance with.... EMOWSHIN. Other than that... your technique is purrrrfect. Good work.

[@mmsanett]

i am DYING. robert this is so ON POINT. I can't. HAHAHAHAHA.

[@bzed744]

En Pointe? ehheheh

[@hannahroberts6986]

Ok someone help me XD I can't tell if this is a joke or not... The moves are actually real contemporary but the responses seem like jokes XD

[@leahkase5244]

They're real moves, they're just making fun of it:P

[@vvieites001]

Yea they're making fun of the redundancy of the moves in pretty much every contemporary choreography you'd see on So You Think You Can Dance lol

[@ChristianParkesArt]

Seriously?

[@estanley1974]

It's sad, isn't it?

[@binodkumri5478]

Hannah Roberts bap

[@spawnsmama]

5years and I can't stop laughing

[@vnizzle06]

LOL i know youtube just resuggested it to me and I'm so happy, I've rewatched it like 4 times in a row I'm dying 😂😂😂

[@thebalance6869]

I'm practicing "The Pewp" RIGHT now! I'm so inspired and constipated at the same time.

[@BlakeMcgrathofficial]

DEAD!!! LOL

[@skylarsingleton7943]

Lol I can't stop laughing

[@JoseDeddzy]

the girl got awesome legs

[@magicmarzipan5597]

I'm only a few years late to this party, but I'm cracking up! Thank you!

[@infanta55]

That's all your fault! Now I can't watch contemporary dance moves seriously, lol. So funny

[@starnstv]

Ha ha... hilarious Contemporary Eric. I'm sure this is where Mia Michaels gets all her stuff. They forgot the most important move... the don't point your foot like a ballerina but point it straight up at the ceiling making an ugly "L" shape while someone else carries you across the stage while you flair your arms like you are grabbing for a lost balloon... I'm sad to say I have my husband to thank for even knowing about that crappy move, since he likes to watch "So you think you can dance", which I have renamed "So you think you can cry"

[@kranktank]

oh my god can you please give me search terms or email me a link here to a video demonstrating that? sounds hilarious lol

[@hazel5gh]

Say hello, bich xD Omg i died

[@CasieTyneeGoshow]

DYING

[@britneyluong9748]

That was hilarious !! "The Peekaboo: when you give the audience a quick peel of you wobaha" xD

[@malakfouda5975]

I laughed so hard when he said "go to sleep bich" 😂😂😂 go to sleep bi*CH😂😂😂

[@AlaiaWilliamsx]

Certainly the best dance tutorial I've ever seen...

[@smarthsnoop16]

say hello bitch made me LOOOL

[@punchrobert]

Help us, Contemporary Eric and Bich! Ok, so, here is my feedback. The boy has obviously had like 20 years of more training than the girl. That's ok. Kepp going girl! You will get there. Other than that, your commitment was really really good. The boy is especially good at The Well. Good work.

[@vikalik]

This critique literally made me LOL and it's late so my roommates are like PiZZZZED off at me also just demanded i order a PIIZZZZZa. Thanks a heffer Erika.

[@duanescot]

Bich is HOT, and this dude is funny as fuck

[@Sarah-the-Carin]

The great part of this is that they are obviously both talented and experienced dancers and can still laugh at the art. I love this so much.

[@punchrobert]

Dancing LyKra - Contemporary Eric Reply How-To Ok, here's my feedback for this video: This is probably the best dancer I have ever seen in my life. God has given you a talent and you need to share it with the world on shows such as So You Think You Can Dance. Omigod, you are, amazing. Good work.

[@TumbleSensei]

WHAT ABOUT THE FORK IN THE GARBAGE DISPOSAL??

[@dani70026]

Best vid I've seen on youtube in a while.

[@solcastro9180]

I found this absolutely hilarious. In fact, after attending three contemporary dance presentations in about nine months, I decided I have had enough of step 9!!!!!

[@BallerinaBadass]

Freaking hilarious. You crack me up! Last LA Dancers Forum at SAGAFTRA Nigel Lithoe went apesh*t about how SYTYCD contestants define "contemporary dance" as reaching out into the ether and looking dramatically into the distance. He was seriously pissed off about it. Still, he admitted that there's a difference between what is authentic and what sells television shows - so... you're a badass for being such a great dancer AND for making fun of the nonsense. Ha!

[@neko8907]

this is the greatest thing i've ever seen omg

[@ronineditor9920]

With today's technology, they had to put so much effort into making it (purposely) look so bad with the "VHS" pauses and jumps. Awesome job.

[@akramabushook4800]

what is vhs?

[@sparkers70]

Hah! if you've ever watched an episode of "So You Think You Can Dance" you've seen ALL of those moves over and over. lol

[@sapphichorrors]

I’ve done Ballet, Jazz, Lyrical, and Tap. I’m starting Contemporary next year. Lol

[@autumnskye7386]

"The pewp" lmfao!!... "go to sleep Bich!" 😂😂

[@UrbanDanceCamp]

Well Done Robert..!!!

[@thetizic]

*scrolled down to look for links. found nothing. heart broke*

[@TruJamie88]

Thanks for posting that. I was on my way through the comments looking for links myself lol

[@ZalgoCometh]

Someone get this man a medal....

[@patriciapartington1868]

As a ex-contemporary dancer, I LOVED this! So funny! Nailed it!

[@yumigul5469]

i watched this when i was 14 and had my first contemprary class that day. now im 17 and im watching this again. this is gold 😂

[@BrandonChanel]

Hahaha. That literally had me laughing out loud! My favorite-the "go to sleep bitch." Genius! Thanks for the laughs Contemporary Eric!

[@bineadalishous]

that walk though

[@noraannemarie]

Next: How to pick a costume for your contemporary dance. (Hint: socks and booty shorts.)

[@michaelmurphy1612]

Too funny Nora! Sent from my iPhone

[@bookfreak360]

You have to specify tall socks. They're never the short ankle ones. (Only in practice do you use the short ones) lol

[@Genesis2091]

LMAOO. I can't with this video. That is all so spot on. Oml, dying.

[@mahadevovnl]

My GF: "Contemporary dance is so expressive and unique!" Me: "So I favorited this amazing KZbin video from almost 10 years ago..." My ex: "I feel personally offended."

[@rhapsodyjames]

Robert this IS AMAZING.. HILARIOUS!!!

[@Dan-B]

'Hilarious' is a strong word...

[@JerryMetellusSpeaks]

'Hilarious' is relative...just like spice levels in Thai food...LOL!

[@danscender]

Obvisouly this is what contemporary dance is in the United States.

[@kyungseokpark2032]

my view of contemporary dance will never be the same XD

[@barbiesinparadise]

"Helping me today is my assistant Bich. Say hello, Bich!" 😂😂😂

[@Professional_Youtube_Commenter]

tahnks man. I didn't realise how ridiculous and stupid dance moves were. When you showed them one by one they looked so stupid. But then when you put it togeyether in sequence it looked like it could be from any mainstream music video.

[@thehousedanceproject]

Priceless!

[@themightyflog]

OMG that looks likes every single contempo dance on SYTCD. Wow! It is funny to see it broken down like that!

[@chinosnake]

Eric brilliantly exposed the so called authenticity of nowadays contemporary dance. Using humor to show how superficial contemporary dance has become, when used in competitions such as "so you think you can dance" and the like. No contents, just steps. Thanks Eric, well done.

[@amirag1155]

The blind man is my favorite could stop laughing I needed that 🤣

[@barbvanee3788]

EPIC, you guys are hilarious (and frighteningly accurate), the descriptors of each of the "15 moves" has me standing and applauding...well done. "Can I get up now"

[@ruthgarner8298]

I am a dancer myself; and I found this hilarious

[@bunekolover]

wow, so I danced without knowing that I danced

[@abbysingh6895]

I can't..... That was actually true😂😂😂😂

[@mercuri_88]

Awesome hahahahahahahahaahah

[@punchrobert]

SPOOF: How To Contemporary Dance - Adele Someone Like You (money inspirACTION#293) Ok, here's my feedback for this video. You have a natural talent for performing, but you need some work on your technique. Most importantly though, is that this video was way too short. It's should have been at least 5 minutes longer. Good work.

[@SandyLeveque]

ha thanks for the feedback PUNCHROBERT c'est notée as we say in France and PLEASE keep making videos like that that make me cry with laughter!

[@JaxieWorld]

Totally shocked by all the anti-gay comments from English people people, assumably from the western world. I thought we were ahead of this Middle East mentality, but apperently, some of you should be heading to Saudi Arabia right now :/

[@DistrictDRIVE]

the girl is hot lol

[@reenaxionette8119]

Pfft!! Hahahaha!!! Learn from this Y'all!! _The Pewp_!!

[@afw3929]

2021 and STILL relevant. 😂

[@worscohli]

That walk at the end! Lol!

[@anthonyfeliciano]

I found this pretty funny. #dance

[@beejereeno2]

14. The Magnet DEAD

[@BrianBeeMoMoses]

"your wahwah-ha!" Bwahahahaha

[@leeettahatcher2965]

Cthu

[@JebHoge]

Not sure if serious...

[@Directormariatorres]

The Hilarious a lot of the choreographers you mentioned are my colleagues, I have choreographed on STYCD AMERICA AND CANADA . I have to commend you on your on humorous interpretation of the basic moves used in contemporary dance choreography.

[@Directormariatorres]

I was laughing so hard when I was writing this just read what I wrote. I meant to say This video is Hilarious .......hahahahaha

[@fleepfloop0061]

Missed opportunity to call yourself contemporeric

[@lauriegardner4804]

My favorite move was the blind man playing volleyball 🏐 he dunno when de ball comin 😂🙄

[@hariaparajith]

i can never see SYTYCD in the same way again...Oh look they are doing "The Pewp" lol

[@smilelikumnit]

I loved everything about this.

[@highvoltage13]

Guilty of having a conversation with my knee way too many times.

[@itsnya_394]

Literally dying at the accuracy 😂🤌

[@Ellabassx]

I'm dying XD!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
