I fully agree. He loved to dance! He danced with passion and intense connection with his partner. His partner responded in the like manner of passion. IT'S just artistry at work each flowing like water ribbons, riveting the viewers attention, intensely!

The common thread is Jason. He choreographed all the routines. He made a lot of women look great on the dance floor.

Nah what are you Talking? Katie was much mich better than her . Dont compare katie with her 🤦🏽‍♀️

@@Ariana-ok9mh ikr...none of his partners was like Katie...she has no comparison thanks to her grace and feminity...this one has only techique...Katie has ALL...RIP JASON😢😢😳😳😳

Veris's technique is very clean but the chemistry between Jason and Katie was another level. They were best friends and it showed when they danced.

Jason and Katie, were never married. They were only a dance partners & dear friends.

@@rebekahmastro4138 Yes lol I was taken in by the thumbnail. It was another Jason and Katie... and they don't dance.

Veris Perovich the girl is great but good god Jason is / was on a whole another level.

Yes, I’ve read comments on other videos of his. People raving about the girl’s dancing...(particular the ones considered to be ‘hot’). I wonder if these people (usually male), have any idea the amount of skill required to ‘lead’ like this... and in doing so, makes the female look incredible.

He's the best I've ever seen

Yes, on a second look, I think she is also really great. There's a tenderness, happiness and strength here... They move well together. It wasn't always only about KB. He was great with many different dancers.

He died from illness

He passed away heart problems, it was a sad day in the dance world.

Jason's career was dance! He started in country, moved to WCS, ultimately ending up traveling the world performing in Tango shows. I miss him every single day!

Yes he was 31 had the flu and he actually died of an enlarged heart.

Never mind my butt... My neck. 🚑🚑

@@anrietterobbertserobbertse9798 me too lol

😂

Yes, one falls plenty, or more accurately, stumbles, or loses the rhythm because of making sure no one actually falls, but all this happens seldom at a performance. The hard part of dancing is the years of training that go into a three minute performance. That's where one works out which moves work, which ones don't, which ones work together, and on developing the muscle memory to do the moves fast and right (almost) every time. Then comes figuring out what works with which partners, and in what order. Then one pushes hard in order to find the last sharp edges, sand them down to smooth, then polish them to a mirror finish. All of that in addition to the fitness, weight training, diet, watching and discussing other people's moves, and listening critically to lots music. And then in three minutes it’s over. During the performance, you can see the concentration on their faces and sometimes you can see a little disappointment when a move doesn’t go as well as planned, but every so often, especially near the end, you can see a short grin show through or in their eyes that all that work was worth it.

Yes, I would also like to know her name, please.

I don't know. She is no beginner anyway, even with such a magic partner

Katie Boyle the partner here with Jadon I've seen more of his video in youtube. With his pair Katie Boyle.the same movements of their performance.altogether.so sad Jason passed away At 31.so young and vibrant moves.missing on dancefloor.

@@muningkukik4762 This is not Katie, she is blonde.

He was dancing with Debbie Figueroa.

she doesn't look like debbie figueroa of texas.

@@AJPAssantes That is not Debbie. I know her dancing style

@@dancechica Any guess as to whom it might be?

@@AJPAssantes A student maybe? It looks like west coast swing isn't her first dance

She's not Katie, but that's still Jason... The most amazing dancer of his generation. Jason Colacino. Cody Melin. Two dancers that the whole world should have known and celebrated. So happy to have found at least these traces of their dancing, thanks to YT. Lucky, all of you who knew them, watched them live, danced with them, competed with them...

I agree. Him and Katie had such passion!!!

Agree...shes like a robot...none of his partners has the grace of Katie

I thought they both danced really well, they just didn't have the strong chemistry that Jason had with Katie

I wouldn't say zero. They're both really good dancers, but the magic that is there in many of Jason and Katie's performances isn't there in this video. That magic isn't really there in performances of anyone else dancing with Jason. That's why Jason and Katie were so special and probably a big part of why they got married. We also don't know how much these two got to practice with each other. Consider that they might have only had a half an hour to prepare for this performance.

@@edward_j_leblanc They were never married and never an intimate couple. They were best friends. But they did have an unmatchable chemistry on the dance floor.

​@@Dancinghiker Who were never married? Jason and Katie were and their wedding dance is on KZfaq.
