I think you shouldn't have plotted them like that.
Why you put two non-dancers together?
Later they tag team wrong eh,
then don't want one asked each other,
then both wrong answers also.
You've heard our singers sing.
Now, watch our dancers dance
and see how they fair up in
today's episode of RATED.
Hi, I'm Andreas Chua,
freelance dancer and
choreographer from Singapore.
I am currently the founder
of Limited Edition Dance SG.
I think really the biggest
achievement would be forming this street crew
all by myself and with my dancers, of course,
for a good 13 years now and it's sustaining
without any fundings without anything,
We're just a street crew.
PD: Do you have any experience in dancing?
Wah, Kallang Wave counted?
Uh, the only dance that I can do is cheerleading
because I did cheerleading,
when I was in JC (Junior College)
I have experience in dance.
In fact, I've been dancing
for 19 years already.
Previously, I was trained
in Chinese dance before
I moved on to street dance,
from Polytechnic onwards.
Yes, very very long ago
when I was in school
when I was in student days.
But secondary school it was
Chinese Dance, Modern Dance
From JC (Junior College) onward,
then I did more hip hop.
I wouldn't say I have a lot of
proper dance experience or
that I learned dance officially.
However I ever dabbled a
little bit in like Latin.
My only dance experience was
that I was in dance club in JC (Junior College).
But we did like a variety
of things, like Modern
Cultural, Contemporary and a slightly bit
of like hip hop and stuff.
Just for fun.
I can say I have,
but I wouldn't say professionally trained.
Not much experience.
Other than a few shoot that I've done for TSL
Where they made me dance
Yes.
But it's nothing professional.
It's all like friendly
beginner kind of experiences.
I've been dancing for roughly 11/12 years.
I was in dance CCA back in Polytechnic
for 3 years
Wah
Eh, I haven't dance in 10 years
3/10
I think I'll rate myself like a
4-5 around there.
Yeah.
I do not know how to dance properly,
but I would say that my
enthusiasm and my energy
can kind of pass
I would say 2/10
I would say my dancing
skills zero, but my enthusiasm
will probably cover up for that.
I would say like a 4/10
then if I were to be hyper
optimistic to the point whereby bluff myself.
Okay.
I gotta be humble,
so I'll rate my dance as 8/10.
Now, 5/10.
As of now, I think is only 1.
Okay, I think
I'm a 6/10
I will never call myself a dancer.
I give myself like a 2/10.
For today's episode of RATED,
we invited a professional dancer
to rate our dancing skills by
teaching our participants a
short choreography that they
will need to learn in one hour.
And this is what they will be dancing.
[Music]
hi everyone.
I'm Andreas Chua,
I'm a freelance dancer and choreographer
I'm also the founder and lead
choreographer for Limited Edition SG
Limited Edition the sells sneakers one?
Who haven't dance
before in their life.
Like never like zero experience.
You? Just you?
Really? Only one?
I'm only brave one here
The choreography isn't that tough.
It's just crazy tough,
but I guess that's the point of it, right?
For you to like, kind of learn
from a professional dancer, which is me
So, the song we will be dancing to is
Lil NAS X
featuring Jack Harlow.
Industrial baby is one of
his latest single,
so I think is going to be cute.
Alright, so let's go for it.
We're going to go
straight into the choreo.
We are going to go
with right leg forward.
1, 2 bounce 2 times.
Smack it over here
right hand left knee comes up,
step it on and step out your right leg
and roll to your right, 2 times.
Okay.
So one more time you go forward
right leg one, two whack and roll.
Roll.
Okay.
So it goes left right left right
And think about the
bouncing, when it comes to this
A little bit of bounce.
That is not bouncing.
One thing this song it's very
strong and it's very fierce
and it's very empowering ish.
So when you're doing it,
you kind of have to have
little bit more confident.
Okay.
So one more time without the
music and without me doing
okay, just try it.
5, 6, 7, go and right and
click and roll, roll, click
and left, right, left
Ish.
So, after the kick goes open up
One more time.
The challenge
Perform the dance choreography and
add your own flavor to it.
Judging criteria will be
based on performance value,
teamwork and synchronization.
The participants will be
divided into three teams.
Let's see how they're doing.
Hello, we are Pink Black.
[Music]
Hello, we are the OLs
Shenton is the only way.
CBD power.
I love Sarbucks.
I love my boss, we are all friends with HR.
[Music]
Hello, we are Crea-zy.
[Music]
Hello
Pink Black
Um, yeah.
How do you feel about
the performance just now?
It's aights
Your overall performance was okay.
It could have like done
a lot, much more better, I feel
Your preparation for the start
It's really like, not
really a nice one ish.
In my honest point of view,
I think like that
bending for that starting
Why not start from literally
on the ground and come up,
know, it gets a better, stronger
on that one rather than y'all
just like that and just coming up.
I think maybe you could
work on that a little bit more
your techniques.
I think if you're going to try
doing a more technical thing,
like a turn, you know, simple
pirouette or anything like that,
then it has to be more stable.
And when you're doing something
technical, it should be
properly done.
You have no team synergy.
No team synergy.
So the two of you were like,
you were so alone and all that,
then you have one K-pop at a side
[Music]
it's very off brand with these.
So maybe what you could do is
you could shift the things around.
So put her in the center and you two are like,
you know, so the energy level
is constant throughout, I think.
Yeah.
That's one thing.
Lery, you lack a little bit of control.
I felt like if you control
the steps a little bit more
and might be a bit more.
Overall, I'll give
y'all a 7 out of 10.
Yeah.
Hi.
OLs
Hi
Yeah.
So I'm just going to
get straight to it.
I think, uh, I love
the performance.
It's a lot of like character to it
but I think one thing you
should take note is like when
the choreographer is telling you
what kind of vibe I want from the
start, which means a little bit
more serious, a little bit more.
You know, serious and relax,
and it's still hip hop ish.
So doing a character kind
of story kind of thing.
I think it's safe ish,
but not advisable.
Yeah.
But luckily for you,
when it comes to that dance part
you do still dance it.
So you're still focusing
on that, which is good.
You don't just throw
it out the window.
Stop smiling lah
I look at you.
and then I also kena (affected).
Starting choreography
I think that you are a bit too
safe, which is fine because
technically you're not really,
really dancers like me.
So, you know, yes.
I think that's fine.
That's fine.
Um, it's good that you are safe
because that is where you score
higher for synchronization.
For Sam your hair came on the first 8.
So might as well don't need it, right?
But I think must like team spirit a bit the first 8
Ah, so the first 2 poses only la
Sure.
Okay.
So you're doing like example
like you're doing props.
I think it's very,
very carefully do it.
Yeah.
And then make sure it's
pleasingly taken out also.
I'll give you a 10
[Screaming]
Hi, team Creazy
Um, how did you feel?
Do you feel good?
Do you like it?
Do you like my choreo.
It's going to help....
YES
Okay, Good.
Good answer.
So anyways,
Let me get straight to it.
You have a very good intro.
Everything is very clean and
I liked how you incorporate more
modern choreography into that.
So like it has that modern
touch to it, which is nice
For me a little bit cringy was
that selfie thing at the start,
but you know, you're creative.
So, what am I?
Um, you should have
a better idea, right?
Um, this goes back to like the
fact that I was saying to the
other group as well, as in,
like, when I give you the,
the vibe of it, like the main word
was seriousness and it was chill,
you know, that doesn't come
play with that selfie thing.
You know what I mean?
It could be something else
that blends into
that fierceness as well.
Your synchro, when gets a bit
off when it comes to that..
Chorus ish.
And you know, you know where you
did something off,
but I love the fact that y'all went
very very close when it comes
to the intro and the end.
And the nice exiting
that y'all did that was...
it was still like performance
throughout the whole set.
So there wasn't any like
on off on off
I will give you all,
Team Creazy,
a 9 out of 10.
[Claps]
I would have to say 2 people
really stand out to me today.
One of them is Steph, and the
other one is Hui Wen.
I think the best advice would be to
come for my class because I'm
teaching and you can learn from
Who surprised me the most
would be the guy with the specs.
I think it's Clement, right?
His name is Clement.
Yeah, I thought in rehearsal,
Is like guai guai (obedient) like some very decent boy
