Genuinely impressed by the Guys, the acknowledgement of the history and the discrimination tap stars faced, and the way Zach's chronic illness is handled.
Yep! I’m glad they focused on The Nicholas Brothers and not, say, Fred Astaire (although I’m a fan of his work too).
For real! The could’ve picked any other super white studio in LA but you can tell they really care about highlighting the legacy of tap and giving credit where it might not have been given before. Major respect to them!!
AGREED. They did this tap and this video justice
@@whitneyleigh5453 yeah I'm glad too. Tap dancing originated in america when poor irish immigrants mixed with the black population, it's like a mixture of traditional Irish dancing combined with african styles which made it more free and rhythmical. The history of both is very important to tap dancing, but people generally overlook black people's contribution and only talk about tap as like an american version of irish dancing. Which it kind of is, but talking about the legacy of black tap dancers is so central to the history of tap too
I LOVE Miss Cathie’s energy. Not only is she crazy talented, but she is such a smiley, positive woman!
The same energy as the Nicholas brothers so cool to see
It's wonderful to see her following her family traditions and keeping them alive for the next generations!
I would have liked to see more of that dance she was doing at the end
Came here to say that 😄 usually everyone else they do these videos with gets sick of the guys' shenanigans within the first 5 minutes 😂 she just takes it in stride. She seems like a great person to be around 😊
Highlighting Zach's chronic pain and invisible illness is so important. Normalizing disability and accomodations will help so many people, and it'll help so many people learn. Disabled and chronically ill people have been treated as disposable throughout the pandemic, so having bigger creators talk about this and make sure Zach is still important and included.. thank you so much.
Literally so important. Also! What a mood!
I couldn't agree more!!! 😃💖
YES! But also, Zach still dressed the part and was boogie-ing down next to Miss Cathie in the background. I love it!
100%!! zach is one of the few people that i can actually see myself in. it's nice to see that others with chronic pain& invisible illnesses can still receive so much love and do so many things. reminds me that even though i have my limits i can still find a way to do the things i dream of doing
Thank you. Bless you ❤
Keith said “no Eugene to hide behind” but he didn’t need it - he looked really great and brought a lot of personality/showmanship to those steps!
What happened to Eugene?
14:10 cuz Eugene had to hide behind them next to the shelf😂
Cathy says that there's there's there's only two of them performing but Zach is still there!
Keith is a natural performer!
@@eitakriamdt I think that’s a cardboard cutout! It’s got white between the arm and the body and you can’t see blinking. I noticed it in the intro, maybe that’s just where they keep the cardboard Eugenes
Competitive tap dancer here - you could not have picked a better expert for this one. Miss Cathie Nicholas is killer. So excited for this video!!
100 % agree She’s amazing
sHE HAS TRULY IMPRESSED ME ! i AM SO HAPPY i WATCHED THIS VID !
Heyo! I'm also a competitive tap dancer and I couldn't agree more!
I’m so amazed with how much they learned, to be fair I don’t know how much time they had but from no experience to that?
How did our try boys do?
"Did Jack just become like 10 times more attractive?"
"Yeah he's hot now."
We have peaked
The end performance with Jack and Miss Cathy was spectacular!!
That end bit 🥵😅
This part! 🤣☠
Jack 100% stole the show on this one! I love that they allow those around them to shine in their niche!
@@katieodonnell2887 I genuinely think that's what has kept me engaged with the Try Guys. They surrender the ego so easily, and let the people around them have their own moments. They surround themselves with engaging people and don't mind when those people start to garner their own following. Miles, YB, Alex, Rachel, Will, Jonathan, Sam, Rainie, Kaylin...plus the Try Wives, plus their friends and peers, like Alex and Hughie, Chris Reinacher, Jared, Garrick, Kelsey, Kwesi... they use their position to elevate everyone around them, and I love it.
Holy crap during the entire performance I was like “IT’S STILL GOING?” not cause I wanted it to end but because I couldn’t believe they had memorized THAT MUCH
Oh yeah, pretty much doing 4 moves is like 10 seconds into the song you're playing lol
They did amazing imo !
In original tap dancing you dance for like 2-3 minutes
I've missed these kinds of Tries so much, the ones that are just the straightforward "Guys trying a new thing" as opposed to being part of a series. Your curiosity and enthusiasm shine so bright in these ones, and we get to see the same openness and can-do attitude that is at the heart of the Try Team. So glad to see y'all going back to your roots with videos like this one, and looking forward to many more in the future! :D
!!! Always the best format. Always. Try Guys just trying something unique and original (to themselves)
THIS!!! I missed their videos in which they try a skill for the first time!
Agreed! Though I gotta admit I'd love a Try Guys try X dance series. Salsa, belly dancing, etc
I actually stopped watching them almost altogether because they stopped trying random things. I was so glad to see this video
Yes!!! I definitely like this content best.
Ned secretly practicing tap in the basement of a chemistry lab sounds like the plot of an indie movie.
“I don’t want to be a chemist dad! My true passion is to tap! (Tap dancing intensifies) I don’t want to live for you, I want to live for me!”
My Chemical Tapdance coming to the a theatre near you
I could even see the person-becomes-really-good-at-skill-while-needing-to-stay-secret montage happen lol
Right?!
Lol. Totally.
@@rowanw1312 my chemical tapdance 😂 I love that.
Zach's chronic pain being cheerfully accommodated, and him still being involved in the video made me so happy! Every time you normalise changeable disability being a normal part of life, it means the world, it changes it. Thank you Try Guys.
YES! I loved him so much for respecting his body's boundaries. GOOD JOB ZACH
This. My back has been messed for years and years and I'm not completely disabled but I'm pretty limited, it's so hard to find people who are understanding, and it makes a big difference when people are.
Didn’t think about this, but it’s so true!!
I liked how they respected Zach's disability and did not blame him for it. I liked how he was jamming out behind Keith and Ned.
It made me feel bad for him at the start, but it makes me soooo hopefull that people will begin to understand the changes chronic illness and pain that can happen in hours or even minutes!
"I'm sorry, I know he works for us, but did Jack just become like 10 times more attractive?"
oh, how Ned Fulmer understands you...
Was looking for this comment lol
I thought the same thing...
That did not age well
I heard that and went STRAIGHT to the comments lol
the guys should really try figure skating. it’s a really difficult sport, but i believe in them.
If you’re into more sporty type tries, check out Nile Wilson’s CZcams channel. He’s a retired Olympic medalist in gymnastics and he and his crew try different sports and physical activities. It’s pretty entertaining
@@CoachJulie193 ooo thank you so much for the recommendation! i’ll check them out!
YESSS
Zach would have the worst time though.
As a tap dancer I love how she went into teaching-little-kids mode as she taught them the beginner steps, with the loud but kind voice and tapping the beat along with them as they dance lol. Ms. Cathy certifiably rocks.
I love how she’s taking the time to not only teach them the basics but also explain the origins of tap
yes its awesome, every tap teacher ive met is always talking about the history and origins, its really cool
This!! Shes an excellent teacher
And it’s such an interesting history too, obviously it didn’t originate in the best of circumstances but it’s just fascinating
Jack's 👍👍
I had no idea that that’s where tap came from! It was a great small history lesson. It made me really care about tap knowing it’s a beautiful piece of black American history.
Ned: “my entire family is asleep, time to practice tap dancing” 😂
😂
How’d you do?
more like time to cheat on my wife😭
@@katyperryfever1 BAHAHAHAHAHA
@@katyperryfever1 he should’ve stuck to tap dancing 🙄
Keith would have killed in the 30s to 50s when this was most popular. He just has that look and attitude that would make him fit right in with the era.
Because he's so amazingly theatrical /pos
Seriously, you guys need to have like a “The Try Staff Secret Talent Show” video 😅
THIS!!
YES PLEASE
If I can watch Jack tap dance some more sign me up! Lol, seriously though there's some talented people working there!
yessss
upvote upvote upvote i need to see this!
Jack sliding in and tapping away had the adorable energy of "dads, look what I can do!" 😂🥰
I love how she's carrying on the family name in tap. About a year or two ago I watched the famous stair dance and was absolutely fascinated. The Nicolas Brothers were enormously talented. You can tell she has the same bug in her for dance.
As a tap dancer, I’m so incredibly happy this video is the way it is. They included the history, and still made it consumable I suppose? to people who wouldn’t be interested in this. They really seemed to be open to trying it and that makes me so happy. People tend to dismiss us as dancers, but this is wonderful. The Try Guys doing the Shim Sham Shimmy is just. Ahhhhh yes. I never would’ve imagined this.
yes yes yes and also yes!!
I had no idea tap dancing had its roots in the African American community. Such a cool lesson.
Pretty much everything american made has it roots in the african american community haha!
Me either but I'm not surprised
@@ThePickleUpYourNose period
it’s the way i’m black and did tap as a child but never knew this
Tap dancing actually has its roots in Irish dancing, english clog dancing and welsh clog dancing. Immigrants brought those styles to america, and especially poor irish immigrants mixed with the black population and exchanged styles, and thus tap dance was born. So tap has its origin in irish dancing, mixed with african dance styles which made it more free and rhythmical
Love that Jack was probably in the back lacing up his tap shoes, excited as hell to surprise his bosses and their special guest with his secret talent. That's so cute!
He was FANTASTIC!!!
We need to appreciate Jack’s part of the video more! 🥰
I was wondering if he was going to slide in at the end and tap rings around them
Keith killed it no lie, facials, full extensions, energy, and comprehension A
The most accurate thing Zach has ever said in all the years I’ve watched the Try Guys is that he’s 2& 92 years old - you nailed it buddy
The sweater gave it away😂
Why is no one talking about Zach’s incredible cloud sweater? This is something I think needs more attention I would kill for that sweater.
There’s videos on CZcams on how to make the sweater
periodt. also ur pfp 😌🤝🏻
I used to have a sweater like that only in black and white.
I think I have this same sweater! It was from ASOS originally
I googled the sweater because I was so in love with it!! I'm pretty sure I found it on ASOS.
Keith totally has the spirit to be a tap dancer and if he got that down and preformed tap all the time I feel like he would love it!
I agree it seems like a very "Ketih" activity
He should definitely pursue this particular surprise talent he has in his repertoire 🕺
He pronanly does some tap with Lewberger
Keith: "there is no Eugene to hide behind us"
Also the try guys: proceeds to have a Eugene cardboard cutout in the background in the video
I though it was actually Eugene standing there
"I'm sorry, I know he works for us..." It's okay Zach, Ned wasn't sorry at all.🙂
Can we also talk how nice it is that they give their employees their moments too shine, like the little tap dancing bit at the end where they dueled really made the video end wholesome
YES!! Especially at the very end of the post-credits clip when you hear Keith just lose his Entire Mind cheering for them! It's so wonderful how enthusiastic they are when it comes to sharing the spotlight 😁
I just watched a TryPod episode with Shane and Ryan as their guests and I think they do it because their time at BF was always in competition. I think they took that into consideration and were like, "no, we don't want to stress our staff like that. We want everyone to feel heard and recognized." I suggest you look that episode up. It's funny and you get to hear what working at BF was like.
you can tell Keith is a performer, he’s fantastic in the show. I’m very impressed by how captivating he is
yeah no offense to Ned, he did great, but Keith's stage presence pulls u in. He's very entertaining to watch.
i was insanely impressed w keith’s ability to notice the slightest difference in beats when they chose a song , i had to look back and check myself multiple times and damn😅👏🏼
I absolutely agree about Keith’s fabulous performance, but I was especially impressed with Ned, knowing he’s “rhythmically challenged.” I love how seriously they take new activities, and how hard they must have practiced! He did a great job.
Well, he was a theater student since childhood. Ned wasnt. So in that comparison, they both did amazing. Keith in his element and Ned out of his element. Keith has also been on tour with Lewberger and Try Guys AND was on TV with his Lewberger team for a competition
"i know he works for us but did jack just become ten times more attractive?" oh zack,, the unintentional foreshadowing
Zach is such a natural performer; even though he's not in the routine he's still tap dancing a little in the background.
Am I the only one who notices the life-size cardboard cutout of Eugene lurking behind the three of them and smiling.. 😂 It was both hilarious and creepy👀😂
Me too!
that standee got me for real hahahaha
I don’t think it was cardboard lol
Typical Eugene things 😂😂😂
yup yup.
As a former competitive dancer, I always thought the permission to hydrate thing is ridiculous. Taught from a young age not to listen to what our bodies need and that someone has to give us permission to do what we need
Sameee I do it all the time hahah
I totally agree, it's so strange. Making people ask permission to use the bathroom and drink water doesn't make any sense, and making fun of Zach for taking care of his body in an episode he had to bow out of is weird. Adults at work don't have to ask permission to drink or use the bathroom, why shouldn't students be allowed to take care of their bodies?
@@DramaGeek77 yes exactly. I get not wanting the class to be disrupted but I feel like it just crosses a line and sends a bad message
@@fbowda I agree and have been mad about that for a long time, especially teachers who make their students carry enormous hall passes. But in ensemble practice, especially in a small group, it's better to coordinate with eachother about breaks and stuff right? Or at least alert people instead of quietly ducking out? It's not like a lecture or movie where you're trying not to disrupt others. You're part of the process. Although obviously nobody should stop him from drinking water when he needs it.
@@Queer_Nerd_For_Human_Justice yeah I get the rationale behind it, and I would never just leave in the middle of an active take. I’m talking about more like say, between reps or something if you really feel like you need water, you should be able to get water
as someone who does ballet, tap and other genres of dance, the try guys did extremely well with this! ESPECIALLY as they only had 2 days
Actually Blue, it was 5 hours!!
They actually killed itttt, and look at my boy Zachy enjoying himself in the background too. I loved it. Also, 16:59, Ned was about to get on his stripper side with that one.
Ned pole dancing was fireeeee
Dauym Ned; I was trying to blame my blushing on a hot flush but I don't convince myself much. XD
It was super cute seeing him bop around in the back as they performed
I still haven't recovered from the pole dancing vid lmao
We see those grey sweatpants 👀👀
I really appreciate Zach having healthy boundaries around his health and knowing when he needs to step back. What a thing for me to try oops haha
Yeah and everyone respecting them too! And not feeling left out of the fun. It’s so good to see
ME its my biggest hurdle right now
It makes me really happy and very impressed that they acknowledge the Black history and oppression to Tap and that they went to a Black tap instructor to teach them. It’s super cool. Good job Guys
ned took that "we all cheat" to heart
You gotta love Miss Cathie for tapping her shoes during the entire routine to make it sound like they were doing more than they really were. What a supportive and wonderful teacher.
I think she was helping keep tempo for them since they weren't skilled enough to do the more complex movements
@@krisj5561 Both!
This is an incredible piece of history and culture, I truly almost forgot this was a Try Guy video. The instructor was an amazing teacher, both in dance and in life. I’m sure her grandfather and family are proud of this amazing woman.
NO, NOW YOU LISTEN TO ME! why should i waste my time at school? i am super famous on youtube. tell me, dear lily
100% agree with you Lily.
keith having done tap dancing in the past as well as candy-making and being the son of a barbershop quartet member makes be certain that this man stepped out of a time machine. how is he even real lmao
I love that we have an chronic illness role model out front acknowledging his limitations. This is the reality for so many of us. We're not flakes. We HAVE to prioritize our health.
I'm glad that they made this with a black tapper who knows her history. The black tap community is so slept on, because the yts once again have taken over, like my black ass didn't know tap was invented by africans, and that's kind of sad, but ya know there's always something I can learn about my culture.
You might really like the Psych episode "Feet Don't Fail Me Now," which made me look more into the history. Gus even has a superhero alter ego in another episode named Tap Man.
TheKoyn...you better preach!!
Its roots are also Irish though, the "yts" were part of it in the first place lol
@@abcdefg2174 tell me you missed the point without telling me you missed the point:
@@aki9059 When the "point" has a nice little bit of racism sprinkled in it's worth pointing it out. 🙃
i think miss cathie is definitely one of the most active guests they had for a video she's just so enthusiastic and welcoming and there were always sounds when she was there she's amazing honestly
for real like i actually feel bad now for not knowing about her or her family before. they are extremely talented and legendary
Keith was made to be an entertainer. He's a natural and a joy to watch
I was thinking “oh hey she’s doing the arm swing like - oh wait she’s a granddaughter of the Nicholas Brothers??!” This is awesome I love it
I really really appreciate how accepting everyone is and that they’re understanding to Zachs struggles, and that he still got to introduce the try tapping trio minus one.
What did you think they were going to do? kick him out of the try guys?
Yeah. I also struggling with joint pain and it was validating to see him respect his limits. And bravo to the others for also seeing and respecting that as well.
@@beatlaunch7623 I think OP is more commenting on how refreshing it is that they respected his health decisions. When you live with chronic pain people tend to pressure you into going past your body's limit for the sake of a project, especially when you have an unexpected flare up.
@@beatlaunch7623 they could have made fun of him or ridiculed him for his decision, or pressed him to keep doing. And they let him be apart of it still despite his pain by letting them introduce them. It’s not like I didn’t expect that of the try guys because they talk about Zachs pain a lot, but it’s also refreshing to see.
@@ollie_3948 but why act like it’s so extraordinary when you even already know that that’s how they act with each other?
I can't believe the literal SON of the Nicholas brothers was there watching - Ms. Cathy's father?? I've taken tap for 7 years and I could never be as calm as Ned and Keith were no matter what lol
RIGHT????
I went to school with Cathie and her sister and I remember when they would do tap performances in the Auditorium. I'm glad that she is keeping her family's legacy alive and passing it along to new generations.
Its so refreshing to see the Nicolas Brothers being appreciated still to this day! My grandparents loved their shows and we would watch them when I was little! Such incredible men who played such a giant part in helping black people be seen as professional and note worthy in america
This is like the best I’ve ever seen the try guys perform. Ned and Keith killed it. Loved watching Zach in the back dancing with them lol.
Did you see the pole dancing episode? Lol
The Nicholas Brothers are such an important part of Hollywood history, and I love that you highlighted their legacy and introduced them to so many people! This was so fun to watch and reminded me that taking an intro tap class is something I’ve always wanted to do. I get so delighted when a musical has a tap number, and I hope someday to be able to add basic tapping to my resume.
that stair dance clip was amazing! and painful to watch, as someone that can't do splits and can't imagine jumping down stairs and landing in such a position >.
I hope you start your tap class soon! 😃💖
I love how Eugene is still in the video in the form of a cardboard cutout in 13:37.
8:38 ZACH NOOOOOOOOOOO
💀💀💀💀
You guys truly met a living legend.. she’s like a fully shiny pokémon card of tap dance
My jaw literally dropped when I heard her name. I'm no tap dance afficiando, but I was starstruck nonetheless.
As a fellow chronic pain pal, adding the scene of Zach explaining that he needs to drop out because of a flare really means a lot. Its the little moments of representation and relatability that do it ❤❤
If they know that he probably wont dance, why not make EUGENE part of the video?? Why make Zach suffer?
@@ZairaBandy zach's a grown up he can decide how he wants to be involved in videos. Its extremely validating for me to see this situation represented in the way that it is: he wants to try something, turns out it's not gonna work for him, he comes out and has fun anyways while still respecting his body. Also Eugene doesn't owe anyone his time. He's also a grown up and makes choices.
@@ZairaBandy I assume Eugene was unavailable. That said, I think a lot of what they do is taxing and/or painful for Zach, but he is able to do what he can and drop out when he needs to (which doesn't usually happen; I think he's pretty good at knowing what he can handle and how to make it work), and I think that's cool.
@@samhand1177 I like everything you say here except the reminder about people being grownups and making their own choices. That's already a given, and people will still have their concerns and wishes. About Eugene not owing anyone his time, I don't think Zaira was challenging that notion, but I get that some people sometimes act as if they bought a ticket to a CZcams channel. I'm glad you got to see representation of someone living with pain and persevering until it's too much and that being OK. Things mostly seem to work with Zach, and the times they don't are valuable reminders of what he goes through. I love that he will say when he's in pain. It's so easy to forget that sort of thing when the person never complains.
@@ZairaBandy Chronic pain (depending on what causes it) can flare up at any time, it can be hard to know what you will and won't be able to do. Sometimes a flare can even be caused by something like stress or the weather. If we didn't still try to do things because of the possibility that it might happen we would never be able to do anything.
I need to see the whole video of Jack and Miss doing a duet together, the back and forth is amazing!!!
honestly, I'm impressed. the sounds were so clear in the final routine it was astonishing considering how seemingly little time they had with an actual teacher
"I'm thinking _so_ hard right now."
"You can't do that."
This is true about _everything_ when you have severe anxiety lmao
This… is the comment.
The small history trivia was such a great reminder of how art helps people, marginalized by the hatred and bigotry of society, to find a safe space / platform for themselves, a pulpit to shine.
💯
I love this comment
I love how Zach still does his own version of it along with them. He looked so excited when they were first learning it
Ned was really great too! But I need to point out how ABSOLUTELY FREAKING FANTASTIC KEITH WAS!! That man has sooo much talent he can do so much arts wise!!!
I really wish the Try Guys would try Color Guard. They could learn a small flag routine, but still try out rifle and sabre. I know there are lots of great teams in California they could learn from!
ooh, that would be awesome!
Oh my god that would be so amazing. I was in color guard and winter guard through high school and I miss it so much-- it would be fantastic to see them try flag tosses! Also to see whichever expert they get show off some sick quads on rifle.
Yeeees I hope they see this
@@kamackmac I did color and winter guard throughout high school and college. I was fortunate enough to compete at WGI a couple of times. I definitely miss it too
omg. i would love to see that.
They actually did really good, and how cool is it to have such a historic teacher???
Zach and the try guys are such an amazing role model for the chronically ill. He never let's his illness stop him from trying anything new but respects his body enough to know when he's reached his limit. The rest of the guys are so understanding and accommodating. It's great to see!!
Hilighting this black history on this channel makes my heart swoon. And this teacher is LEGENDARY. You guys did so great.
The best part of this video is the dance off between Miss Cathie and Jack and the Try Guys fully losing their minds cheering on!
Jack coming in and just busting out his moves might be my favorite part.
Zach was doing sooooooo good! Sad the pain affected him so badly, but always love when you guys explore his chronic pain through your videos as well! So proud of you guys!
Ned danced himself right into unemployment and infidelity.
I had no idea tap dancing's origins were rooted in slavery. Wow. This was enlightening and amazing to watch. I love how they incorporated the history with the fun, and the way Ms Cathie educated us! I. would. have never realised that!
Keith is a consummate performer, from H to T. Ned's earnestness throughout this was so endearing though. It really was great to watch.
I love when we get to see Keith's band and theater background really come out in a video like this. He was even counting out the beats when they were choosing a song.
Keith was impressive - and he would have done well in silent films when you had to project by facial acting. And Miss Cathie, what a wonderful being! :) And I love the way you understand Zach's medical concerns - we want to see him even if he cannot tap!!! :)
You did such a wonderful job honoring the legacy of tap dance and the Nicholas Brothers, including the history and taking the dance style seriously!! And Miss Cathie as an expert knocked it out of the park. And Jack, with those single legged wings??? Holy cow!!!
I could feel Jack’s joy as he showed off his skills!
I SCREAMED when I found out who Miss Cathie’s relatives were! I absolutely love the Stair performance! It’s so legendary to have her teach the guys this routine 🥰🥰🥰
It just occurred to me that men have sensitive equipment and now my question is HOW????
You can see their distinct arm movements in hers. So cool.
Me too! I had a little fan attack
@@kaycewebber6367 I assume that it is like drag queens, eventually you just don’t feel it
RIGHT I lost my mind. I didn't even know they had a granddaughter doing tap, I gotta look her up now
They both killed it! So fun to watch. Keith’s showmanship was next level, though
Jack and Miss Cathie tapping at the end was really satisfying and pleasing to watch. Love the energy!
As the friend with chronic pain I'm literally touched by how well Zach is accommodated. Because I'm not. I'm always left behind.
❤️❤️❤️ I hope that changes for you
I'm sorry you had to go through those moments. I hope life takes a turn for the better for you. ❤️
Me too ,but people with chronic pain just have to be honest with themselves and say no to many activities for safety. Zach shouldn't have been in the video in the first place. Why not put EUGENE instead?? That way they have three Try Guys doing Tap dance and Zach left alone without injure himself.
@@ZairaBandy Eugene's loaded with projects that's why he's not there in most of their recent videos.
@@ZairaBandy this would not be the first time they’ve done a duo. Zach probably wanted to try it and had to back out.
They wouldn't let Eugene be a part of this one because he would just be TOO DAMN TALENTED
You got that right.
I did notice the cardboards cutout of him in the back during that intro 😭🤞🏽
He was too hungover
Probably true, but such a shame. It would have been fun to watch him. Remember his video from Korea where he danced?
@@nolumchunu5824 i noticed him when they selecting the song. I was like "who is that standing in the back? Why are they just standing there?" 😂😂😂
she is an INCREDIBLE instructor! her energy, her smile, her talent, i loved watching her. and i'm so proud of the guys, not sure what i expected but they did so well !!!
I love this video as one of the best examples of the Try Guys trying something truly challenging while educating a broader audience about the history and culture surrounding that thing. I’m very sad that Ned’s behavior has sullied this particular one because I love to share it to illuminate the Black American history of tap dance. I’d love if you all would considering trying Lindy Hop in your new Try Guys era. I continue to be a fan of your values and your content, even (maybe sometimes especially) when it means you end up with a lower performing video.
Ned has more rhythm than I’ve ever seen him have before. I’m impressed
Somehow the fact that their teacher is the granddaughter of one of the Nicholas Brothers I just started freaking out and fangirling. I didn't know I had such strong emotions about the Nicholas Brothers but omg
Me too lol
me lol
Keith really was channeling those old tap performers energy with that big open smile the whole time, and I am so glad Zach was worked into the performance and able to dance a little as he felt he could
Keith's steps actually looked so clean! I feel like he always puts his best foot forward haha
Zach: “you right now think you can tap dance”
Me: a competitive tap dancer for 12 years rethinking if I actually can tap dance 👁👄👁
Right?!? I took tap my entire childhood (not the same level as you of course), and I sat there thinking "But I thought I could tap dance... At least a little..." 🤔 😆
Same here!
🤣🤣🤣
I came here to comment this 😭 I even chose a tap dance workshop over a hip hop one w Twitch as a kid
i have 1 tap lesson a week (i do contemporary now but couldnt let go of tap) and yeah i was thinking the same XD
I’m so proud of Zach for bowing out for his physical health, as someone who also suffers with chronic pain I was concerned when I saw him in this bc it sounds excruciatingly painful to me and I know we have different types of chronic pain but we can still definitely relate. I’ve said it before but it means a whole lot to me to have someone in media I can relate to on that level, until I found out about Zach’s AS I had never seen invisible disabilities represented ever it truly means the world to me. Also that’s not the only thing we share in common, I also have a smiley face tattoo on my buttcheek that I got years before I started watching the try guys. Much love to all y’all 💞
And Zach adorably vibin' along on the side is every spoonie sometimes. I felt it in my achey bones!
Keith’s face sold the entire thing!! They did a really good job!! Great teacher too!!!
They did a good job and I just really LOVED Keith's expression as they preformed!
I love how Eugene's standee is at the back, quietly judging them.
Not a lot of people noticed it the comments 😂😭
@Crying Sunflower 14:16 it was so funny he’s on Zach’s side
@@andreisymedina6929 Thank you. XD
I was like is it just me or is creepy Eugene in the back lol
lol I was wondering if anyone saw him in the background at the beginning
Ms. Cathey’a energy was a 10/10 and I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I had no clue that tap dancing was rooted in slavery! I love that you all included historical information. Keith’s facial expressions during the performance had me lmao but I’m a Keith Stan for life. Start a fan club and make me president at this point 😂 Ned was so focused and nervous about it but he did pretty damn good as well. I love all of the try guys.
I remember seeing Stormy Weather once while my dad was watching it and he said ‘watch these brothers dance’ and I’ve never forgotten them since! I must have been 4 or 5. Synonymous with amazing dancing in my mind!!
5:01 I have taught children to dance and Keith NAILED it!
I know we all love Eugene, but I also really, really, really enjoy when the other guys get to shine a little in dance videos.
Okay same! I miss seeing all four together with their chemistry and banter but it's kinds like Keith said, they couldn't just hide behind Eugene.
Where is Eugene ?
Now I’m ready to see Zach and Maggie try ballroom or Latin ballroom for their upcoming wedding! That be cute!
Zach's salsa dancing has GOT to be off the charts with those hot ankles of him
Wedding? They are not married?
that's a fantastic idea!
Keith is such a natural entertainer
I used to tap dance in my childhood and seeing this and her instruction just triggered such a happy childhood memory. I loved to wear my tap shoes everywhere and be annoying with my tap shoes. I might get into it again
This is top-tier Try Guys content: learning a new skill, getting an amazing look at the history behind it, a phenomenal expert, the boys not being great but doing the thing anyway, and Try Staff showing them up just for fun. Thank you for introducing us non-dance folks to Miss Cathie! She has so much knowledge and passion and it truly tipped this video over the top.
Totally agree!
