Transformation



For all of the loyal "So You Think You Can Dance" fans out there you understand why this is my favorite dance of Alex Wong. First to make it that much sweeter, they brought Twitch back as his partner. As we all know, Twitch is the master of hip hop and I love that he incorporates his own style into it. The idea behind the dance is very creative and the energy level sustains, even grows, throughout the entire piece. Just from watching this, it makes you want to get up and dance with them. Ultimately, my favorite part is that Alex went from being a professional ballet dancer to performing one of the best hip hop routines I have ever seen. He went against all of the ballet stereotypes and proved that he is capable of blending in next to Twitch, the show's hip hop sensation. His ability to do this demonstrates that he is transforming and evolving as a dancer. It is very difficult to be professionally trained in one area and then perform this naturally in another area. This goes to show you that Alex has real God-given talent that is beyond impressive to watch. 

Just for kicks: 
This is another one of my favorite dances from the show. It is so breathtakingly beautiful and captivating that I get goose bumps every time I watch it.
