HI! Thank you for coming to my channel! I am a Teaching Artist, Choreographer, Rockette Alumn & Author based in Atlanta living on borrowed time and currently teaching open classes at Xcel Studios! Music is my biggest inspiration, and I love the creative process of storytelling, making dances and sharing my art with the world to make it a better place. Dance is a universal language that I believe has the power to help us heal, connect, and empower.
We all have a voice. There is room for everyone in this world. Be YOU. Do YOU. Don't apologize for it. YOU ARE ENOUGH.
All the glory to GOD!

CHOREOGRAPHY | Dre Lakin
I am endlessly grateful for the air in my lungs, another day to live, my tribe, and the chance to dance, again. Imperfect. Broken, but, still here. This is an essay on my relationship with dance, all the ups and downs, and my journey being torn apart by it, only to attempt to fall back in love with it.
Falling in and out of love with it, again and again. It's a love/ hate relationship. I'm believing that when I release my memoir to the world, it will all make sense. Make it all make sense.
I've been broken and rebuilt by it so many times, again and again, I've lost count. But that is the journey. Imperfect, broken, and perpetual. I give more, and more, and more, and I've honestly never asked for anything in return.
Only for it to love me back.
In all it's abusive ways, it doesn't always do that. It doesn't always reciprocate. I just love it. I love teaching. I love creating. That's it. No hype. I've found my way back to it, again and again. I've let go of it and forced it out of my life, only for it not to let go of me. It pulls me, yearns for me as I yearn for it, and I decide between my two options, balancing on the edge of running back into its arms, or running away altogether.
This time was different. This time required a new approach. This time required relying on the grace of God to pull me through. And then it happened. With this song. With Luke. Lightning struck. Again. My heart burst open. The flame was still present, burning with a low ember, but orange with passion.
Rising from the ashes.
Again and again.
Finding my joy, my power.
Again.
Long live the lyrical reaches. Stay true to who you are and chase your JOY. Let the light inside you explode, for all the world to see. Let the underestimation of others towards you, burst your heart wide open. Transmute it all. Don’t let the pain keep you from falling in love again. In fact, fall harder, fall deeper, fall faster. Fall completely, and know that heartbreak can always be measured by the amount of love that was present.
Thank you to my real ones for still being here, because if you're still here, you're absolutely a real one. Please SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW!
Thank you Jillian Edwards for this gorgeous cover, that pushed me off the fence entitled, "forcing something to fit just for the sake of creating", and "creating to something because I can't help myself"... your music does that me, and brought me out of rock bottom. Gratitude.

This is when I fell in love with Dre Lakin and her choreography 😌. This choreography got me thru a LOT 🫂. I learned it in my head during a rough time. TY Dre. Praying for your health now.
second last girl best technique and flexibility. beautiful split jump in the end
last girl has the best emotions behind. Love how she moves right before and into the fall towards the end
Her long leg extensions are beautiful
I love the energy of the dancers so much! Realy makes it truly feel like its their golden hour!!
I don't know if you will see this, but this was such a moving piece to me because of all the emotion and energy that I can see was put into this. I also love how even though it is the same choreography for each group, they all make it look like different dances because of each and everyone's different ways of dancing. This is such a beautiful piece :)
I’m picturing Billie Eilish right now
Man, this is SO underrated, I can't believe this hasn't been blown up.. This is amazing though, I wanted to say everyone was crazy good. Keep doing what yall are doing, its mind blowing. No one was ever not as good as someone else. Thank you for putting this out there
Wow! Emocionante!
thank you!! so much!
I learned this when you posted it last year and have performed it in my head a million times since then- it's like therapy (🫣and I'm a therapist). Can't wait for your book this Thanksgiving 🥺❤️.
These are the comments a choreographer lives for, this is so kind! I'm just happy it has resonated with you! I want my choreography (and the book) to help others heal:)
You should post shorts on UA-cam,you dance will surely get noticed by the people
I googled golden hour choreography today and stumbled upon this absolutely gorgeous piece. Every single dancer brought a unique perspective that personified JVKE’s beautiful song. I am obsessed!❤❤❤ a special moment I saw: the dancers embracing at the end. I cried. 😊 9:11
Thank you SO much for being here and for following my journey! It means the world! Golden Hour is still my favorite choreography to this day, and it brings me so much joy to know it is still reaching people's hearts all over the globe! Sending you so much love!
Am I the only one that laughs at this dancing? Like it's so funny. 😂
The freestyles were immaculate! Why am I crying? 😭
Thanks for the support!
Tutorial plss
Wow amazing performance!
beautiful dancing, but i'm not a fan of the choreography.
Please tell me what is this type of dance called?como se llama este estilo de baile amigos
The second dancer was just golden! Loved it
ALL OF THEM ARE SO GOOD!❤
The girl is the yellooowwwwww!🤧👏🏼✨ HER MOMENT!
The second dancer wasn’t just dancing, her soul was in it. I love the run in the end with the completion of a hug 🥹🥰
Thanks so much for the love!
Obsessed with this dance !! ❤
thanks so much!
ig of the last dancer please :D
This was such a special class. Thank you 🤍
Indeed. So happy you were there!
Loved this guyyys❤️❤️... Totally golden performance ✨✨✨✨✨
The choreography and the dancer were both so awesome!!!
Dre slays again 🔥 ♥
Beautiful
So proufoundly beautiful and relatable. And yeh, either way, the outcome's the same. 🥺
You are not alone!
This is beautiful! ♥
Thank you so much!
Could we get a tutorial pleaseee
bro, the second girl makes me cry, so beautifull :(💛
They all did amazing!!! The third one was the one that caught my eye a lot! I can't stop replaying it. She did wonderful 💗 . I loved how expressive she it and how smooth she is in her transitions during the dance. They are all really skilled overall and I can feel all the emotions through the video, I can't imagine how it would be in real life.
She is incredible! And also my assistant for this class;) thanks so much for watching!
Only Dre Lakin can make getting hit by a train so fun.
Amazing choreography and dancers as always!!!¡! You are all consistently FABULOUS!!! xoxoxo
Dre never fails to bring a song to life visually through her breathtaking choreography that makes me watch everything she does repeatedly! The dancers are always fabulous as well!
OK, so the choreography goes....one ear bunny hop..arch..strut, swivel, up. Out..right...sway it in..and back out, finger finger get jiggy wit it....jiggy, jiggy, woo!...reverse prayer over the head,..3 Dance Mom moves. throw a tantrum....become a fish....becoming a flying fish .....defy gravity. Look fabulously effortless while doing so. The end. Yw ♥ haha
I’m dying! 😂 Just saw this. You nailed it. Had the whole visual going in my head. Total fire! 🔥
Yet another example of why Dre is my favorite choreographer!!!!!! The dancers are all fabulous as well! They brought this song to life visually and emotionally!!!!
Olivia assisted me for this class, she did great, and I couldn’t feel my leg 2 8’s in, vaguely remember feeling as though I may pass out from the heat, but ya, this class was a vibe! I never used to dance on camera, but that night it was Lana, so…. You do what you gotta do. 😂
@@DreLakin It was fabulous! And OMG, didn't realize that was you!!! You are as amazing a dancer as you are a choreographer!!!
My new year's goal is to learn this choreography tomorrow ♥.
I support! I love you for this!
Dre, you are the most amazing choreographer! You brought this song TO LIFE!!!!!! Loved all the magnificent dancers as well! Wishing you all a happy and blessed 2023!!!!!
This is absolutely the best compliment a choreographer could get! Thanks so much for being the best fan ever!
Got goosebumps really while watching this awesome choreography. Love how the dancers would do their freestyle at the end.
Thanks so much for watching! Please subscribe if my choreography resonates!
Keep up the great work. YT ranking services - *Promo SM*!!!
First one is just....um
Wdym by um? She danced great imo
She is a QUEEN! Just had a baby, and danced this combo full out 37 times with each group, before we filmed! RESPECT! 🙌 Honestly, one of the hardest workers I’ve ever had in class! It is just humans, in class, after all. Much love!
Love this!!!!!
Awesome choreography and the dancer is beautiful!
This song and this dance is amazing, perfect 🪄
Thanks so much!
Dre, your choreography never fails to deliver! ♥
Thank you so much, this means the world!
So beautiful!!!!
