Dancing isn’t for everyone. I mean it’s 100% therapeutic and a stress-reliever when you’re in full form and want to shake a leg, and I recommend it to everyone for their own well-being, but it’s not something all of us like to do. For someone like me with two left feet, this couple’s performance is truly impressive. I’m not the only one who thinks so, as this video is quickly going viral. I have a long history of not being able to dance. Like many little girls, my parents enrolled my in dance classes at a very young age. My mother had taken ballet, tap, and jazz, and had been quite talented. Her old toe shoes were placed lovingly on a shelf in my room, and I was promised that after years of training and practice that I, too, could become an exceptional ballerina.
But sadly, it was not meant to be. As my mother explains to me now, I was horrible. Not only was I just not a very good dancer, I have always been a bit of a free spirit. So, I viewed routines and choreography as vague guidelines, and would often just make up my own dances that suited my mood. As you might imagine, my dancing career was rather short, though I’m still impressed with anyone who has the talent.
I’m particularly impressed with this elderly couple that dances like folks at least half their age and are benefitted by many years of training and experience. When they take the stage, they elicit the kind of reaction from spectators that only truly talented dancers can. As soon as they start to move across the floor, the room becomes electric and everyone reacts with uproarious applause.
Of course, their dancing is amazing and the steps are flawless, but they also bring something completely intangible. As they dance, you can feel the years of practice and the emotional connection between the two dancers—it’s absolutely magical.
You can also tell that these two love the song that they’re dancing to because their energy says it all! They’re smiling and not caring for who is watching and what they might be saying. They’re enjoying the dance and each other’s company, and when you’re a part of a dance routine, that’s all that matters!
