jaime guttenberg, a victim of the parkland shooting, was a dancer. i know she would’ve loved this so much. this is so beautiful 🧡
Thank you so much, our dancers wore orange ribbons in their hair for Jaime
@@PowerUpDanceCenter we wore orange ribbons for one of my comps and I still have it in my room
I live in Florida and have had the pleasure of dancing with her at different conventions. She was a beautiful dancer
@@PowerUpDanceCenter My dance company competed all season with orange ribbon in her memory, which we're located in Florida too

Hats off to the choreographers and the young women who performed this number. Absolutely beautiful, and so moving. Its good to see that such a difficult themed piece placed so highly. Congratulations to all.
This so beautiful ♥️ and heart warming ♥️ may all the lives lost to gun violence rest in peace 🕊️😢
This is a great dance. I’m a dancer and have been in a school shooting. It’s tragic and traumatic. It never goes out of your mind. I’m so happy somebody finally understood what’s going on.
This is breathtaking, very well done great performance
How can two people not like this? It was beautiful!
26 now
This dance is so powerful and breath taking. You all did an amazing job. Well done 💜
I got goosebumps watching this dance. And I'm not even a dancer
As an American this hits so close to home especially now with America being in a epidemic of gun violence it seems to be at it's worst now it's everyday now no one is safe😭💔
Here in 2021 December rest in peace the lives lost the other day in that school
That’s was really beautiful! May the lives of the people in those situations Rest In Peace and fly high, and pls god help us to change and STOP this already it is going WAY to far! Help us god and stop these stuff fro. Spreading all over the world, for everyone reading this and me and people that I love , help not to pass a way in a harmful or bad way or anyone in the world and who they love! 🙏 amen
Woah , that was absolutely beautiful and amazing. Love it
we miss you jaime 🧡
This is beautiful ❤️
Excelente interpretación, y excelentes bailarinas Muchas felicidades
this breaks my heart. these girls did absolutely amazing preforming this number ❤️
but also second overall?? i’m not dancer but cmon, obviously this deserved first.
at this competition placing second is incredible. plus i’ve been going to showstoppers for years and have never seen lyrical place that high
@@kirafarias9258 ohhh ok! tysm for explaining! i am a competitive figure skater so i don’t really understand the dance world 😅
Well the choreography was really bad tbh. The moves were really repetitive and the dance really has nothing to do with school shootings. If u watch the dance without music then you’d have no idea what it’s about
@@kiwi8535 I would agree that the choreo didn't match the song. The song was also uncomfortably slow compared to the original version which had dynamics. I saw several dancers singing the lyrics and as an ensemble they lacked emotion. The older dancers had emotion but the younger ones didn't grasp the concept.
I just think the message got lost since there were a lot of dancers.But they choreography was beautiful and the dancers did an amazing job
I’m 😭😭😭😭 beautiful
America needs to take a look at Australia! We have strict gun control, and we have far less mass shootings.
this is beautiful
Everyone thinks it can’t happen to them, it won’t happen to them, until it does. This is why we need stricter gun laws. It’s not going to stop EVERY event, but it will stop enough of them. My heart breaks for every family, every friend, every teacher who lost someone this way. It’s awful just how little the country truly cares.
This is really beautiful. But sad how relevant it still is. 😭 I live next to Oxford. #oxfordstrong
The fact that this dance got 2nd overall and not 1st overall is very very disappointing.
Well, a touching song and good intentions aren't everything. The choreo wasn't the best.
💔
Where is the beginning part from? This is what I am looking for
how second tho-
without having seen all the other dances in this section, especially the one that got first, as a dancer i'd have to say it'd probably have come down to technique scores or choreography scores. As beautiful as it is, and as emotional as the subject matter is, when it comes down to competing a dance, technique and choreography contribute a good chunk to the scores, so it's probably that the 1st place winner had a higher score in those aspects 🙂
Is this ADLC?
what😭 no
No, but they did two simalr dances, children with guns and thoughts and prayers, about children gun violence.
I was wondering same
For girls very important legs moving up ,
yeah no
