i love the plain costumes! it really shows off the great choreography and the teamwork. it complements the dancers well

[@karinloch9793]

yes! they are so cute

[@samimoring1235]

a sudden deep feeling, that's always been there it's in my DNA, it's in my roots.. to give this a thumbs up

[@bluebird4417]

The choreography was great and so was their unity I loved the dance

[@kerryverdu8107]

From Dance Teacher to Dance Teacher - Really good idea's/narrative. Fab choreography, Girls are very well trained and just loved the musicality.

[@chai848]

Ooh ya baby look at that jazz walk, look at that fan kick! Real jazz thank you! You ladies rocked it!

[@tls8915]

The girl that took lead second should've been in the lead the entire time. She was way more into it and just did better in my opinion. The dance overall was just okay

[@tls8915]

@gabby kobrowski that's nice that they do that. After I left the comment I did feel I was being a bit judgmental. Sorry if I offended you in anyway.

[@sophiasaputo526]

what most dance studios do is everyone gets a chance at being lead

[@aspentheaqh5434]

@@sophiasaputo526 for mine it's the graduating senior dances so it's me next year

[@bldnblklace]

@@sophiasaputo526 at mine and most competitive places, the person or people in front center are the best dancers that have best technique and will put on the best show/bring most energy or emotion

[@annagilleland2754]

This dance was more than okay......

[@m1ko0oo9]

I miss dance so much I’ve been watching these over and over again thinking about doing dance again! 😀

[@olieatsbagels]

This is SO well choreographed

[@danceproject1275]

Perfect harmony dancing!

[@melissachalmers6795]

this is just a really solid, simple dance! love it! reminds me of my old competition days

[@raindrxps8458]

AMAZING!! All the girls work together perfectly. I love it!!!!! Truly amazing.

[@trinityj134]

yes it’s a simple routine but i really liked it because they were really clean in their dancing

[@nataliem9817]

[@Millie_Rock]

Is this your account ms Zaba this is Amelia From TM 😮😊❤

[@widyaindiarni]

keren banget😍😍

[@annagilleland2754]

So clean!!

[@not_gabi6508]

I’m working on a no roots dance and I’m realizing that my dance teacher has used some of the dance moves used in this dance but idk maybe she didn’t know?

[@jtika1978]

Jazz dance is universal, so we all use the same steps, just in different sequences.

[@hadleygrace3916]

weird that dance uses the same moves no matter what dance you do. that’s literally how dance works 💀💀💀

[@duchess8070]

a lot of teachers take inspiration subconsciously from several dance numbers they’ve seen. it’s probably a coincidence, considering that many of these moves are seen in other upbeat jazz numbers as well

[@stephanielunaa]

Awsome teamwork!

[@jasonbrye3418]

Nice.

[@KoganMain]

Awesome

[@katafahnd2903]

Cool!

[@bldnblklace]

I'm from Portland and I never heard of this studio....

[@jilleve4325]

WOW! Okay so I just searched up some jazz performances after seeing Luna Montana vlog a teaching a jazz class ( check her out she’s awesome!!) and I’m shocked! I’ve done ballet with a pre professional school for 5 years now, spent my summers at ABT intensives ect, but I’ve never taken very much jazz and I hadn’t ever seen a full performance like this. I’ve been told I have a slight “jazz style” in my dancing and I never really got it. Anyways, I think I’m gonna try and find some jazz video classes! This looks really fun!!! If anyone has an good vid recommendations pls let me know!

[@adoreburritoonly2668]

Good

[@peyflo174]

Cool 0

[@mackenziecleary5403]

It was pretty I just don’t understand the suitcase and the papers and the flannels they also need a little more air time when they do jumps

[@E_WANR]

it's called no roots ? the song, it's about always moving from place to place and not having a set home

[@kateaisha_]

I just didn’t like how I didn’t see the girl behind in the first seconds

[@sophiazhevelyuk768]

Love the dance♥️ but the costumes not really:/

[@pooki3princess]

It’s just that they didn’t give it their all…..

[@nordfyr1]

просто случайный русский комментарий

[@jimetalavera4251]

How are they all so skinny

[@charlizefoasberg7371]

they dont eat

[@areetazoha2530]

they work out, take care of their body.... if you actually TRY then you can become thin...

[@brookekarington]

Charlize Foasberg nope, us dancers eat A LOT lol

[@madalynnicely5886]

This is too slow

[@ava3473]

Then you don't know what a jazz routine is...

[@bldnblklace]

@@ava3473 Have you ever seen any of Molly Long's numbers lol, jazz doesn't have to be slow....and OP was right in I think what they meant was that they lacked energy; they weren't hitting anything with any intensity

[@abivieira1068]

It’s not jazzy enough tho🙂 The song is, but the dance is kind of hip hop jazz.

[@han.nah007l8]

AJ Vieira it’s really jazzy

[@jasi7313]

Hip hop where? ...

[@lilireid5477]

i’m curious as to what your understanding of jazz dance is.
