It’s always cute to see kids dancing. Kids often are less self-conscious than adults, which allows them to really let loose.
That’s the case with the two middle schoolers in the video below.
On occasion, young kids do something that’s outstanding. That’s what happened with Brooke Farrior and Billy West in this year’s dance nationals.
But this one was tough. Kids were up against some fierce competition.
After uploading the video of the pair performing to “Pony Time,” it quickly garnered more than 210,000 views. Then, the comments flooded in.
When you hear people say things like “Oh, my goodness…fantastic,” “They get better every year,” and “That boy has rubber legs,” you know they did an incredible routine.
At the start of the video, you see Brooke and Billy off to the side while the announcer calls out their names.
Walking hand in hand, they make their way to the middle of the dance floor. They haven’t even done anything yet but the audience is already excited to watch them perform.
After all, this pair has made quite a name for themselves.
Initially, they both appear somewhat nervous.
In fact, Brooke gently pats Billy on the back several times as if reassuring him. It makes you wonder if the crowd’s cheers are because they’re good or as a way of showing them support.
Well, it isn’t long before that question is answered.
When the music starts, Brooke and Billy simply rock back and forth.
At that point, it’s kind of confusing. Do they even know how to dance? Oh, yes, they do.
That’s when things take off.
The two perform a Swing type dance that goes perfectly with the song. They almost immediately go into a series of twists and turns. All the while, they’re right on beat and their footwork is solid.
Do you remember the one poster’s comment about Billy having rubber legs? They weren’t kidding. He’s super limber and the faster he goes the better he dances.
Of course, Brooke is right there with him, giving a great performance.
For the majority of their performance, Brook and Billy dance arm in arm.
But then at one point, they separate. Now, dancing side by side, you can see just how synchronized they are. From little to big moves, they’re spot on.
If you do much dancing, you know that going low to the ground requires a lot of balance, strength, and stamina. But for this pair, that’s no problem. They nail every twisting move. They’re so good that the crowd can’t stop cheering.
As expected, Brooke and Billy took home first place in the Junior I Division.
After a performance like that, it was well-deserved. Although we don’t know a lot about this couple, apparently, they’ve been competing together for a long time and it shows.
These kids have some seriously impressive swing dance moves. What a great pair.
