holy crap hey it's clay director video
here at steezy and it's been a while
since i've done one of these intros but
this one is different because we'll be
giving away a one-year membership to
steezy studio to anyone of you who
subscribes to our youtube channel and
leaves a comment on this video telling
us one thing you love about dance oh did
i say one membership actually meant two
memberships one for you and another for
someone you'd love because it's
valentine's day without further ado our
amazing pairs for this annual steezy
special six choreographers one song are
constant mayor cara canela and jaden
gomez and philip chabib and mackenzie
dussman they'll be dancing to
light switch by charlie puth
let's get into it married couple number
one acosta mayor
what is going on guys my name is austin
my name is meredith you might know us as
costume mayor
[Music]
and
we're married
it took us too long to choreograph this
piece we actually started and then we
were like this isn't going anywhere this
isn't going down it turned me on like a
like a lot like um white
no turn
uh
[Music]
we didn't know what to do for the ending
he says come on come on come on come on
come on come on come on
forever it is like 5 million beats per
minute and so we were like what if we
just
and then we were like i love it it's
just like
we just have a moment number one thing i
love about mayor is how
geniusly creative she is there's always
a moment where it's like i got this idea
for a video i have this idea for a video
maybe it's like uh
maybe it needs a different arm like what
if it was like down but i like the idea
of going like maybe we could try to
throw in one of
those things
somehow so creative all the time
that is so so kind my favorite thing
about you is how much you care about
everything people and projects and
everything you just put your whole heart
and everything you are i'm gonna cry
[Music]
so great to work with i just love to
live with you and do like
love love we get along well we
they're so cute i already know i'm gonna
sweat my ass off
[Music]
oh that's cute
hey
i know this is a weird emotion
it seems to cry
you can see the the quality of their
relationship in their dancing i don't
know if that's a thing that you should
be able to tell i'm like a light switch
i love it i love you guys
that caught me right there and i love
when they're facing each other the way
they exchange with each other the
glances it doesn't feel like a forced
performance you can tell that they're
very safe in each other's presence that
i think is what makes it so attractive
to see them dancing and not that i mean
attract well they're attractive people
but
but i mean like that's an intimate real
experience with them she like went up
and then dropped out and grabbed a tight
grip
that was clean
just cuz it's so cute and genuine and
fun the song obviously has like a pretty
standard beat but they do a really good
job at making it feel natural they feel
those moments where they feel that long
bass and the
longing of like his expression the way
that they choose exactly how many
movements per beat if that makes sense
is really tasteful and and is enjoyable
to watch so well said it sounded like i
knew what i was talking about i did wow
impressed it's all an illusion
best friend's number two cara canela and
jaden gomez hi guys i'm carolee canelo
i'm jaden gomez and we're best friends
it took about a night for us to finish
our piece i would say it took about us
like an hour yeah hour and a half our
process is very
fun energetic
[Music]
it's like very loosey-goosey just kind
of roll with the flow see we can make up
twerk let me see you twitter ew why is
the heater on
gotta have led lights everywhere to like
set the mood
what the dog doing
i see the favorite part is where it's
like he says i don't want to fight this
and then we like she like catches my
fist we like swing around we're like
yeah yeah
and we keep going that's like my
favorite part i think something i love
about jaden she's so positive her energy
is like so loud and exciting i love that
because like i'll like be like dragging
along and she's like come on let's go so
i like that like come on let's go man
i'd say my favorite thing about kara
she's just very driven and passionate
she's extremely passionate about
everything she does food or tick-tock or
just dancing i just feel like it's a
good balance for our friendship
i love you
peace
[Music]
you don't yes have to do much to just be
adorable this is that is that
just natural
it's so much fun
[Music]
i love that
yes
see this is this is what i think was
meant
for the song
[Music]
oh my gosh that was so much fun
yeah they did it right you like have to
smile while you're watching it oh i like
lived vicariously through that was a
great time amazing they actually made
that song a groovy song that's an
ability that i don't have and they look
relaxed they're actually just having a
great well that's what i mean it didn't
look like they were dancing fast at all
yeah and i felt like we were like
yeah i felt like everything was on fire
i love that we both reacted to this the
part where they both go in and they do
the this oh
yeah that's so cool
you can tell that they're genuinely
having so much fun together are together
besties i know it's amazing that's a
hard thing to do though when you're
focusing on choreography that's that
fast yeah especially charlie booth fast
for real
we forget as dancers that there can be a
moment where you're just a human a human
you're showing emotion with your partner
and you're connecting with them and it's
not just moves oh there's two humans
dancing together and there's like
there's love there the friendship came
first and then it was like let's make
this fun dance yeah and it just happened
like that right yeah good job you guys
nice work just adorable beautiful
fun dancing fun yeah that's the one i
would want to learn yeah i love it
engaged couple number three philip jabib
and mackenzie desmond uh i'll say my
name you say your name great and you'll
say uh we're engaged we're
perfect that's it we're engaged and
we're
friends i don't know what you do
hey everybody my name is philip shabeeb
my name is mackenzie dustin and we are
engaged
fiances fiances yeah nice all right
that's a cool thing to be
taking steps okay right moving up mm-hmm
love love
love love love it took about four days
yeah
i think this the first day was mostly a
struggle so i tried to block that one
out okay so it is hour three phillip how
much have we gotten done we got eight
whole seconds finished
it's gonna work
things progressively got better
fortunately but uh the song was
remarkably fast i think the fastest song
we've ever danced to
more recently everything is like slow
and
sad sad slow and sad that's actually
what we we lean into typically slow and
sad this was actually good for us yeah i
think uh we needed a mood boost
so happy and fast is not not a bad way
to go so yeah day two of choreography
one thing that i absolutely love about
this guy his ability to allow me to like
process and unravel the things that
scare me most in this life and not
identify me as those things
it's the nicest thing that anyone could
do for someone she's really created a
really strong foundation of acceptance
that's allowed me to kind of break free
of that that ego that you mold
especially in this business where
everyone's expecting you to be a certain
character and once they like a certain
character they don't want you to change
and i don't think i would have had the
bravery to change if there wasn't like a
secure force at home that's like doesn't
matter what you become i got your back
the whole time i would have treated life
more like a dead end if it wasn't for
her i love you i love you like a whole
lot yeah there's no doubt yeah yeah yeah
i love you i'm excited for this one me
too oh my god i'm nervous for my ego
knowing that they did this
it's gonna break me
[Music]
oh my gosh
[Music]
i'm like speechless i'm strictly
speechless right now it's like never
ending
[Music]
oh she's so smooth how did they do that
whoa
oh my gosh one take one take one dude
my mind is blown what's something that
you think dancers can learn from them
good luck here's the thing of what you
could learn is the fact that there are
no limitations like there is so much
opportunity to just lay on top of each
other in opposite directions but also
like let me grab your ankle and you've
got my neck and like let's see where
that can take us on just one person
alone there's an infinite amount but do
you put two people together like oh my
gosh like if we did that oh my gosh it
would look so clumsy you look like
monkeys the worst like caterpillars like
fighting to stay alive i liked when she
did the little
thing
yeah
my favorite part to feel was the initial
shock of seeing the beginning shape how
did they just be like let's lay on the
ground and you hold me up in there and
let's start like how do you do that do
you ever think about like putting
yourself in their shoes and being like i
think we should make up a dance today
maybe get on the ground can you lay on
the top lay on your feet and we can
counter balance and then we'll just see
what happens from there no
i had no words for like at least 30
seconds i was like
oh my god that was crazy we already saw
it guys i know i'm sweating i know
let's go
[Music]
yes
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
yeah
you guys are so contagious it's so cute
yes
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
yeah it feels like when we make eye
contact we're like debriefing
you guys have shrunk your communication
down to a single look right yeah just
paragraphs of information you're like
okay cool
i think you start the wave
oh
let's go guys
[Music]
hey
[Music]
hey
[Music]
yeah
i love the interacting with each other
it's something that we always forget to
do i mean interacting like this it kind
of goes back to what you guys are saying
i like you to appreciate what you're
actually doing there yes we're like
we're always like holding our breath
just like get to the end and then we'll
celebrate after we always have a like a
blast making stuff we always just mess
around and like don't take anything
serious we'll randomly do something that
just feels so like fun and we're like
hey
but it feels like you're actually
celebrating yeah no nobody celebrates in
one direction you
know you're just enjoying the moment
yeah
yeah thanks guys
okay this first part guys what the i
want them to play this back in slow mo
literally
[Music]
the strategic soft stressed very
stressful yes this sucks
so elegant
you guys make it look like water
that part right there
and look at the new smile you're having
so much fun yeah good job for smiling
that was nice
we don't do that all the time
that was a nice space too i noticed that
the first time i think i just glued it
on
[Applause]
how do you just like oh yeah you'll be
on the floor let me be on top of you let
me try no hands let me try something
like that no no no it literally oh yeah
let's try a million uncomfortable
positions yeah and then the one that's
the most possible wins okay if you just
go to the music you'll do the best thing
that goes to the song right but then
you'll you won't have any reason to
level it up but beyond that or
complexity-wise you guys just create and
then like put into something later yeah
yeah and sometimes it doesn't fit
perfectly to music that's why sometimes
the pieces don't land perfectly but
occasionally we can it's interesting
when you said you don't want to like
muddle a shape like that's the perfect
way to put it because you make so many
pictures and if something is like off
the slightest bit or like in that it
will look very bad
yeah
that was so cool
[Music]
if you love dance i love dance then you
should subscribe to stevie i already am
