People say his isnt dancing.well its my life i dance everyday and i enjpy it so much it is so good for building your confidence and to keep yoy fit it is amazing when you are sad you dance happy you dance depressed you dance it just keeps the emotion running through your bofy

2020 watching this and realising the difference between then vs now

This is dancing it's just not what most people are used to, it annoys me that people never show that we do slow dance as well

I know this is an old video, but I just wanted to say that I really liked it! I've been dancing for over 10 years, but different styles (ballet, contemporary, jazz, acrodance...), so disco freestyle is just fascinating to me. It's in one way very familiar - I do walkovers, illusion turns and acro tricks like that too in my acrodance routines (and I also do circus arts like contortion, aerial work, hand balancing) - but in many other ways, disco freestyle dancing is very different. You can tell it takes a lot of hard training and lots and lots and lots(!) of stamina to do this. Yes, I can do many of the moves and tricks you guys do, but definitely not that fast! It definitely is dancing - people who claim otherwise just haven't understood what dancing is yet (how sad) - and I really enjoy watching it. The slow version is actually very similar to contemporary/acro dancing, so I can relate to that a lot, but the fast version is just breathtaking! Keep dancing and having fun, all you disco freestyle dancers! Please know that many 'classical' dancers like me appreciate your style of dance. There's just a very vocal minority that puts the label 'not dance' on everything they don't quite get :)

Yes this is dance! It is extremely hard so it really annoys me for how hard we work and everyone says it’s not dancing! And it’s not disco dancing it’s called freestyle-disco dancing 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I dance everyday I love freestyle comps are great too x

Anyone who says this isnt dancing, it is ts my life. 5 days a week is how many days a week i train let alone stretching everyday. You have to work hard to get to different levels. Ive been doing it 5 years and im in prem champ in fast and champ in pairs and slow. Its hard work ...

I do freestyle dancing and it's brilliant it takes hard work to do it that's something people don't no we have to work extremely hard to get where we are now

I hate when people say that Dance is’nt a sport

its a special memorial competition, called the Anne Cricthley memorial competition! the only one we're actually allowed to film in! So that's probably why they choose that competition... They not allowed to wear costumes at this competition! it's the only on like this :)

Jay screaming there and Paul with his stick haha nothing changes lol

The Oxford American Dictionary definition of the verb dance: "to move rhythmically to music". So yes, it is dance.

Your documentary is really comprehensive and accurate. It covered everything I remember about the Freestyle World in the couple of years I was part of it. Coming from a theatre dance background beforehand, the freestyle world was a shock to the system and there are certainly parts of competative freestyle I feel need to go (prices of costumes, over 'enthusiastic' parents being two) Great film.

I have just recently opened my own freestyle dance school in plymouth and was wondering if it'd be okay for me to show this to the parents, i think its really insightful and explains freestyle in more detail then i could. Great work ! xx

Never have I ever seen a cartwheel on the dance floor. ._.

Brilliant dancing, the teacher with the stick is slightly scary.

One of them dance teachers was a judge for the 5 Nations :)

because it was a charity/memorial comp! all black, no tan, no make up etc..

I dance like this and my dance school has big rivalries with other dance schools but my dance school is friends with this dance school

It is dance an I love it it's like the best dancing school ye can go to because I love it there x

I don't know what the backside you call this but dance has structure timing and melody movement. Don't get me wrong it's great seeing young kids have fun kicking the air to dance music but it's really a workout to pinky and perky remix.
