Jaimie and Hok hummingbird Jazz

[@lucinders]

This won an Emmy Award for Wade Robson for Outstanding Choreography.

[@paulasaenz5726]

As it should’ve 🎉

[@ShannonSparks1977]

damn, i'm still amazed every time i watch this. my favorite part is actually the beginning where jamie is the flower blooming. she executes the movement perfectly.

[@DG123z]

I think she might be a baby humming bird breaking out of the shell and learning to fly with help from her parent?

[@Nani.101]

@@DG123z the story is of a flower and a humming bird

[@carmellebandibas]

Perhaps, this dance routine is timeless and considered as one of the best in the history of sytycd because of how it is beautifully directed. The camera is mesmerizing and hallucinatory. It only takes 4 cuts from the onset up to the ending. The close up of Hok and as it slowly fades out into a long shot is where all the magic begins. 0:15 onwards is a long take. The camera dances with them. We are dancing with them. This is probably one of a kind moments when we are not just passively watching, we became part of the routine. Like Hok, we are a hummingbird. Wade Robson is truly a genius.

[@CrazyJayCo]

Man every once in awhile, I'll come back to this video and watch it, its just simply breath taking. I consider it to be the greatest dancing routine ever put together and beautifully danced too. I can't possibly fathom the idea of someone having such a talent to be able to choreograph such a masterpiece, its almost unreal.

[@HazelEyedErica]

I saw this dance when I was 14 ... It still makes me feel something. Part of the reason why I'm a dancer now.

[@keeponmovingalong]

this is the kind of dancing i love. although it is beautifully done, i'm kind of tired of seeing the same old stories of relationships and feelings in the new routines and seasons lately. this was when this was just pure beauty and art

[@ryanyounes8162]

urgghh, after all these years, i still came back to this !! Even without seeing the title, you knew its between a bird and a flower...thats how great Wade and the dancers are !

[@vim92]

CHILLS. EVERYTIME. CHILLS.

[@amycarroll7698]

STILL CHILLS!

[@nylonbird]

OMG I remember watching this dance when it first aired on television--and I remember being in complete awe by it-never before had a dance effected me like that before...

[@guitargeekette]

This is my fave routine of ALL the Sytycd seasons.....and I've watched them all....there have been many amazing and moving routines, but to me, this was by FAR the most culturally, and physically creative. Easily the best routine. ever.

[@albertnaguit8781]

i believe that this routine was made especially for jaimie and hok

[@imarademontfort4849]

Absolutely stunning. Hok's birdlike movements in his head and hands are amazing, and Jaimie's lean, florid lines are so compelling. It inspires and enthuses me every time a watch this. They are both such utterly talented dances, and the choreographer, had a moment of genius when he conceived this dance. "Hummingbird and Flower" choreographed by Wade Robson won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography in 2008.

[@dtrix10kc]

Ahhhhh Wade lad. I miss you and your beautiful choreography so much.

[@guitargeekette]

GASH. Still gorgeous. Perfect. Still my fave routine from this entire show.

[@johnv2256]

i just LOVE how different this is from the contemporary/jazz routines we've seen. it's not about a relationship, gf/bf lovey dovey wishy washy stuff. This is pure art and beauty.

[@ManubibiWalsh]

I know nothing about dance but this is beautiful. I never really knew how iconic Wade is, but damn, now I got a whole new kind of respect for him.

[@spiraljoe1273]

Truly an exquisite piece of art. I’ll alwAys remember this one

[@chubbypenguin101]

i can only c jamie and hok doing this dance together. perfection.

[@sallydaniel1023]

This dance brings me to tears every time. It's so incredibly beautiful.

[@deedee7867]

i used to love this dance but now that im older i appreciate it a WHOLE lot more. pure art and beauty performed so well

[@TheZoRetro]

there are so many great dancers and dances on sytycd and there even dances that have better structure or technique. but there is no dance that connects with the music and tells a story better than this!! this is one of my all-time favorites!

[@CantoUcello]

This dance...it takes my breath away. Hok and Jaimie are simply stunning. I don't even have words to describe how this dance makes me feel

[@raatrani38]

This was pure inspiration and artistry. Wade was a painter animated by the colors of Hok’s and Jaime’s emitting essence. He internalized and refracted the most exemplary and distinguishing concepts of their movement and united them into an aesthetic that was both unique and universal. As a collective, their art articulated the realm of the kinesthetic and material and unveiled the omnipresence of the existential, the spiritual- merging both into ontological manifestation. The gnostic beauty of this piece allowed us to witness the primordial, the contemporary, and the hereafter all at once. It felt grounded and mystical, coherent and boundless. It was absolutely transcendent, a wonder to behold.

[@20995Mbo]

The most beautiful dance I have ever seen!!!♥

[@bjfashionhouse]

piece of art! one of my all time favorite

[@adelinedevol2642]

[@nancyrdz]

[@LeilaLightOfMoon]

This isn't only just a dance routine, this is ART!!!

[@Easybreathing1]

Мастерски исполненный номер! Слияние музыки и хореографии в одно целое!

[@susan4466]

I saw this dance during it's first live airing on sytycd. I remember the brief,astonished silence before the clapping. Everyone was so amazed at this original, peerless and beautifully performed dance.

[@komodoblu5384]

That was fricking insane!!!

[@coralaisly]

Yes, Memoirs of a Geisha is a lovely film with a gorgeous soundtrack. I end up listening to it fairly often; just beautiful.

[@silentdot]

Wow. This is beautiful. I love how the guy did the break dance in this unique piece. It was so beautifully used in this piece. So Animated. Wade is a freaking Creative Genius. I cant believe that he would risk throw away his career to lie on MJ. He has more lose than to gain. I believe Wade and my prayers goes out to him and his family during this difficult time.
