I first saw this routine probably both 13-14 years ago at a hustle/WCS event in the DC metro area. I cried watching it the first time and it still moves me every time I’ve watched it since then. It is literally my favorite West Coast swing routine, and the most memorable routine I’ve ever seen seen.

The circular movements and combinations are simply out of this world! :D

West Coast Swing, Jordan and Tstianna, moved like the wind was blowing through the leaves of a tree They moved so beautifully together. Every single move exsicuted so FREAKIN well. They melted together so gosh darn hot, I couldn't take my eyes of them. I surely thought I'd miss something great. Wow that's off to that very great dance together. : )

So proud of them. That was astounding.

This is my favorite dance duo in WCS. I love watching all their routines. Need to find the start of their beginning coming together and witness how they have evolved and grown each other….Their synergy is impeccable! 💃🏻🎉🕺🏻😍

They have this down to a science. Even coming down the stairs, their movements are synchronized to one another and in time with the beat :)

i love the intricacies. all those fast turns, and they didn't get tangled! i totally would have.

This is one of the most amazing dances I ever saw !!! The choreography is spectacular, the song is just beautiful and the choreography fits it amazingly ! Love it.

Watching From The Philippines! 🇵🇭 🇵🇭

Beautiful

She is as great as a dancer can be! Love watching them.

What precision, amazing choreography!

Tatianna Mollman is proof I don't need to be stick skinny to dance beautifully.

You're SO right!! Just take a look at the skinny beanpole at the end of the video (as they exit, the tall one between them at 3:42)... she's got nothing on Tatiana ! Honestly, I can't believe that her BMI is anywhere within double digits - which means also no muscle mass, therefore less admission /transportation of oxygen and voilà... no stamina! How long will it be until size Zero loses its appeal?!

I have not seen a professional dancer that is skinny. They cannot be professional dancers and not be trained. Skinny and trained are a huge difference performance wise: a skinny woman cannot perform at any sport, because of missing muscle tissue and endurance. That a lot of dancers have little fat is due to dancing being a high endurance sport which ofc burns some of that away. Tatiana is extremly trained, just look at her back muscle... still requires a lof of discipline to get to this level. See, not skinny, but trained: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aaBotZt6ndiaf7w.html

this talent is very spectacular !

I get chills every time I watch this.

how cone that they still look relax even if they have already turn countless of times???they're great!

They are the epitome of their sport and this dance style

Not much one for choreography, but - as choreographed routines go - this is pretty damn impressive. Everything incredibly complicated and done at roughly TWICE the speed of light sort of balances out the fact that it is choreographed. But if you want to see something really impressive watch Jordan or Tatiana in a J& J... NOW THAT IS AWESOME!

Awesome performance. Love this style of dance & these two executed perfectly.

one of the most wonderful performances I have ever seen

Simply beautiful. I'm not usually moved by dance. This was an exception.

This is great!!!!!!!!! Wow, this takes my breath away. Amazing.

you know you're having fun when the suspenders come off ^_^

it's so fast! like watching a magic show. very entertaining

holy fu#king sh#t, this is so beautiful. the speed is jaw-dropping and the dance was so hot, the suspenders came off. bravo

love the way they moved .

Favorite ever dance

They are so amazing!!

love just about every performance they do!

Super schön. .. Ihr seid ein tolles Paar und Tänzer. Wou

they are just perfect together

Eu sou um simples mortal... Vc´s São os Deuses da dança.

Супер!!!! Спасти мир? Только так!!!💪👏

This routine was absolutely awsome. But I would just LOVE, to see them dance it slow to the speed and flow of the song, throughout the entire piece, it might not be as difficult and impressive to perform, but I sure as hell bet it would feel alot better and look brilliantly beautiful.

Almost made me cry.

Bravo! I love them!

no me canso de veros bailar.... que pasada... un abrazo

It took me awhile to notice until I only paid attention to Jordan my millionth time watching this, but half of his suspenders went flying off during the dance haha.

Beautiful!!!

thay was amazing :)

you saved my life!!

i love this music!!

That is incredible.

dayuuummmM!!!

wow!

I was going to click down on this comment, but then I realized how awkward her hand looks in this video. She normally looks so fluid (including her arms). Check out another version of this routine to see how good she actually is. I think she is actually the better dancer of the two.

e assim que vou dancar daqui um tempinho...!

I think an element that is being missed by the 'not dancing to the music' critics: these dances are designed and structured to be able to dance to music that you've never heard before, particularly the social dances like wcs. i.e. you can find 'chachas' that fit the music perfectly but dont actually resemble a chacha. Then you can find chachas that are chachas, but miss some elements of the melody/rhythm/etc in exchange for remaining in style and still being leadable-followable.

They seemed a bit off or the song seemed a tad sped up in this performance. However, their performance at swingdiego was absolutely astounding! It was filled with so much more passion too.

i wish i could do this, holy shit. this is amazing. :D

Dan, I considered taking that route initially; however, I think Andrew didn't claim that they had poor "awareness", rather poor "musical" awareness. So, "poor" modifies the adjective, "musical", which would make it an adverb. Anyway, it's my interpretation based on how he wrote the sentence. Thanks for the reminder.

IGOR ET CATHERINE SONT DE BON PROFESSEURS J EN GARDE UN BON SOUVENIR

Estamos treinando nós Guadde

the music is superbe!!! wat'is??!!!???!!!;)!!!

I was at Reno Dance Sensation in 2009. There was a latin singer, I think his name is Vassilli anyway after his performance he announced on the microphone a proposal to Tattiana. Everyone was quited surprised and of course she said yes. She was at RDS in 2010 and I did not see a ring on her finger. I dont know if she is still engaged.

2:33 to 2:37 is amazing

I want to be able to do this with my boyfriend one day!

@RunninAD I'm sure it was choreographed. Is it a bad thing? No. They worked out a routine and got it down solid and smooth and coordinated it with the music. Just like any competition, the dancers go with a routine prepared.

@RunninAD its absolutley choregraphed. its a routine.

Wow, that was incredible! Are lifts not allowed in WCS competitions?

@HunterstonB You are the biggest troll ever! The only one that cant hear music would be you! I do compete in dancing and this couple makes it so perfect, hitting every beat and every part of the song, slow and fast! Stunned everytime =)

Это такие ляхи у американки?.... ахринеть!

i love jordan and tatiana like dancers!!!! but wa'is the music ??!!!!!!!;)!!!

Man they are fast. They almost need to slow it down. They are like Bruce Lee on camera.

@BRaffertyable I think, just like in ballroom, lifts are usually limited to the showcase division

With regard to Jordan and Tatiana's dancing, the adverb "poor" is hardly one I would ever use. I would imagine the first question Skippy Blaire would ask you is, "What is your definition of 'musical awareness'?" Once you recognize Blaire's genius, then Jordan and Tatiana's execution will reveal texture which cannot be appreciated fully to the untrained. Of what little I know, there's a Grand Canyon separating those you mentioned and J&T. My opinion which means I'm right... just kidding! :-)

that was amazing. :)

What event was this? World Cup of what?

Type in 'Melissa Rutz and Robert Royston' into KZread pick the video of Melissa in the green top - and remember it is IMPROVISED to unknown music.

Jordan Frisbee definitely has an Only Fans account

Let me clarify, same routine but in 08 Swingdiego Classic

Can you please send me a link to a video of dancers with better interpretation of the music? I want to understand what you are saying. I haven't seen anyone interpret music better than them in a partnered dance, but I have FAR from seen everything yet, so please share! Thanks.

@angelicsiren07 I heard she was engaged but I can't find out who she is engaged to.... Who is he? Is he a WCS dancer too?

'How to save a life' by The Fray

Ballroom dancing.

I sort of agree with you, but for them, that would have been a BAD idea. They used to date each other, so a kiss would have been awkward at least, but (according to their website) their breakup was very rough. As much as I sort of think it's a sin that they're not dating, I'd rather see them working together like this as dancers. Besides, I don't think Tatiana's fiancee would have appreciated a kiss in this routine...

Is that WDC World Cup?

@HunterstonB ....WCS you can dance to MANY DIFFERENT PARTS of the music: The beat, the lyrics, the instrumentals, melody, etc... and change it up throughtout the song for interpretation. There is no rule it must be danced ONLY to melody. It's very easy to be critical, but let's face it...You couldn't touch them, dance wise. If you think you can...post a vid... I'm sure WE'D ALL love to see it.

@HunterstonB Not sure who you re or why you have this vendetta against Jordan and Tatiana, but I've seen your comments on more than one video of them. I've been a dancer for 6 years and a musician for MUCH longer and their dancing is very impressive. They are one of my favorite WCS couples. I'm sure they, like myself and others, do both social and competitive/show dancing (in fact, I've seen Tatiana at a social, and I've seen her improvise).

what song is this?

Wardrobe malfunction!! His strap came undone haha

"Poor" is an adjective. "Poorly" would be the adverbial form.

@HunterstonB do you DANCE west coast swing? West Coast is about hearing things within the music and playing of of them. This song is actually a fast paced song for west coast if you do the actual beat...and they double timed some things to play with the nuances in the song. The dancers are incredible...some of the best I've seen and I dance west coast. quit judging dancers and learn something about the genre before talking.

Try typing Melissa Rutz, Robert Royston, Tessa Cunningham or Kyle Redd into KZread. Jordan and Tatania have poor musical awareness, though physically they are the best of the best. J & J dancing seperates the best from the mere players.

@dramababi00 Yes of course I dance WCS...... The dancers are incredibly athletic, just like many champion ballroom dancers, and just like most ballroom dancers they are melody deaf. Ask a good improvisational musician why the music is boring and you'll have an explanation why the dancing is boring. However, if you want to turn WCS into a ballroom dance and remove all the musical improvisation - this is the way to go. It's dumbed down music for dumbed down dancing.

@HunterstonB Or another way to put it another way, most people cannot identify 'dancing to the music' and that includes many very highly skilled competitively successful dancers. The general population, the audience, and many dancers, can't actually identify or predict the structure in a piece of music, they are, (like Frisbee and Mollman) effecitively deaf to the music. If you can hear the music what's wrong with this is obvious, if you can't - it looks just wonderful.

how the hell is this swing?

It's west coast which evolved from Lindy/Jitterbug/East Coast around 1950. The basic step pattern in either style is done to 6 beats of music. East-coast is triple-step ,triple-step, rock-back. West coast is walk-walk, triple-step ,triple-step,

@grandcarriage1 Just about any dancer with a ear for music could dance better than them. The problem is, if you can't see how flawed this you'll be unable to identify 'dancing to the music' on any level. You can't distinquish good dancing from bad. The problem is only about 1 in 10 people can identify dancing to the music (or the melody structure in a piece of music). So the majority of people are judging them by much, much lower standards than a musician dancer would.
