  • Mel performing at RDC's benefit concert for Dancers Responding to AIDS in the fall of '10. This solo was choreographed by RDC faculty, Katie Carroll and Tonya Hughes.
    Rhythm's outreach program, Project R.E.A.C.H. (Rhythm's Every Action Can Help) brought studios from all over the Southeast together for a night of dance.
    With the help of our friends, we raised over $30,000 for DRA in one evening.
    WE LOVE YOU MEL! TEAM MELANIE!

    Mesmerizing and utterly endearing. Her dancing is magnificent, stunning. This little charmer has an extremely bright future. I'm so glad she won on SYTYCD. She richly deserved it. I can't wait to see more of her. I hope she gets to do the new 'Dirty Dancing' movie. All of America will fall in love with her.

    words will never describe the feeling i get watching her dance. i get chills EVERY time... she is a role model for every dancer, especially me! i have never seen anyone dance with such grace, beauty, passion and technique. Melanie, you WILL win the 8th season of So You Think You Can Dance! and i hope i will get to meet you and tell you in person what an inspirational dancer you are!

    Stunning.So many of the writers of the Bible spoke of singing and dancing before the Lord in Praise & Thankfulness,& beauty.Even David praised and danced before the Lord nude. Using the body as an instrument to Praise and Worship the Father. When I see dancers dance with such conviction I long to be able to dance like that. I use my voice to Praise my God and there is such a freedom.peace,and purpose to it. Maybe in Heaven I will finally be able to dance like Melanie. Wouldnt that b amazing

  • @JspTwerk
    @JspTwerk Před 12 lety

    She has such skill and spirit that goes into all of her dances when she performs. Any dance company that has her should be grateful to have such a legend on their team. She has inspired me to go extra hard in all of my pointe and ballet classes.

    I don't care what everyone keeps saying about her not being challenged on SYTYCD There is not another girl on the show who could dance this routine. To stop mid spin like she does at 106 requires tremendous strength. She is a power house, beautiful, elegant and dances with a maturity and beauty I have never seen from somone so young, I could watch her all day.

    Nijinsky and Moore - 99 years apart
    In 1912 Vaslav Nijinsky danced Debussy's l'après-midi d'un faune. 99 years later Melanie Moore dances Desplat's The Meadow. One or two of Melanie's posture attainments seem to reflect a few of those of Nijinsky. If a lesser dancer would have attempted to mimic Nijinsky, it would not have worked. But Moore is fully capable of pulling it off.
    It is too bad greats that live centuries apart never get to dance together, but thanks to youtube and sytycd, we're able to find true artistry rising above the fray.

    what I love about Melanie is that she doesn't have to do a hundred turns or do crazy jumps to look amazing. She does it by being incredibly graceful and having amazing control. She is my inspriation to become better and I wish someday I can be as great as she is. It also helps that she is beautiful and has great hair :)

    I understand exactly what you guys are saying, but this was an in town performance. Everyone there, including myself, was there cheering on their friend. We were/are so proud of Mel and this was really one of the only times we had to show our support while she was on stage. It doesn't mean we have "low class" it means that we are such a tight knit community that we like to cheer on the people we love and have grown up dancing with on stage. It's our way of showing love and support.

  • @VictorGonzalez-hw2qe
    @VictorGonzalez-hw2qe Před 9 lety +2

    For the life of me I just cannot see why so many people talk about how great she is . I mean I have seen many on this show who are much more, but dont get the acclaim that she does. Many times it seems that she loses her balance, but then just falls to the ground and makes some graceful roll out of it . I must not have the eye .

    • @jennabelle1163
      @jennabelle1163 Před 9 lety +7

      thats the point stupid. dancing isn't position to position- its the movement between positions. the space between two atoms. dancing is a personal relationship with the ground that no-one else has. Melanie is one of the best dancers i have ever seen in my life not because of the positions she makes but because of the movement and passion she has when making them.

    • @VictorGonzalez-hw2qe
      @VictorGonzalez-hw2qe Před 9 lety

      I take it that she is the greatest thing you have ever seen, but Ive seen atleast 8 others on this show who are much more exciting and they do not get the acclaim thhat shes been given .

    • @kouhaisempai4800
      @kouhaisempai4800 Před 9 lety +5

      Victor Gonzalez There's certainly better dancers out there, but I guess Melanie just has a "thing". I didn't really get it either until I saw her live. I mean, I liked her a lot on SYTYCD and she definitely deserved to get to the end, but when I saw her live I simply couldn't take my eyes off her. I know it sounds stupid, but there's just something about her presence that just draws you in and I can't explain it. It's actually rather frustrating not being able to explain properly or provide any evidence.

    • @IcelandsPuffin
      @IcelandsPuffin Před 8 lety +5

      I think the falling is actually a part of her routine, I think it is to illustrate a dramatic emotion.

    @zz878 Agreed, though some of us said it during the show, hindsight says that she was head and shoulders above even the best female competitors. Strength, technique, maturity and her ability to connect with the piece and the audience without even having to make eye contact all make watching her a wonderful experience.

    She's like a magic pixie swan dancer. Love how she didn't just wear like a tutu, do some fancy leaps or whatever and called herself a "swan", her movements were very birdlike yet elegant and oh so controlled.
    I'm so jealous haha!

    This was beautiful - Awesome choreography. the best I've ever seen her dance. On SYTYCD, she always seemed a little stiff in her upper body. This was much better but... take a look at Ida Saki's dance - much of the between movement was was borrowed from Ida.
