Welcome back to another episode of three choreographers 1 song.
For this episode, our three dancers are Anthony Vibal, Monyett Crump, and Sabrina Belen.
The song they'll be dancing to is "Best Friends," by The Weekend.
Let's get started.
Choreographer number 1, Anthony Vibal.
Hi guys, my name is Anthony Vibal, I have danced with Team Millennia
and I'm also an instructor here at STEEZY.
Before I even choreographed it, listening to the song,
when that chorus hit, I just felt this vibe you know that I needed to like, have fun and just like groove it out,
I already had it done and everything. But then, after I just didn't feel like it was the right vibe,
I had to like, restart again and the difference from the first time I choreograph to this one,
was that like I put on a hat and I was just feeling it.
I felt cool, when you feel good, you choreograph better.
You look good, you feel good, and you're just vibing out with yourself.
So clean.
So, that's my friend right there.
That's a little guy with a lot of power and a lot of range as well.
God damn! How are you moving bigger than me, like this is crazy that just like it feels
so good like I want to learn that.
I want to learn your routine.
I've known him for so long.
What I've seen, like throughout his journey was his confidence building up.
Once you have that confidence just for anyone you know you start to show it in your craft,
or in whatever you do.
This smack, was so big, but so just elegant the way he just kind of came back and said
what's up?
There would be a like a smack, or a snare, and then like the weekend's voice afterwards, and
he would perfectly kind of mix the two together.
His flow just throughout the whole thing just
again, just made sense.
I believe that new dancers could definitely learn
his execution. He knows exactly what he wants to hit. It's like when you hear the song
and you see him dance, you can hear everything that he wants to hit.
he brought you into a moment
and then he would just like kind of snap you out of it
and then bring you back into a moment.
A lot of choreographers, we feel like everything needs to be a moment.
You can just have those specific parts,
that you really feel like the music is bringing you into a moment.
That you can have be special.
Choreographer number two, Monyette Crump.
What's up, everybody? My name is Monyette Crump, I'm from Chicago, Illinois.
I've danced for artists such as Young Thug, Chance the Rapper, done some stuff with Nike.
I've danced with Ian Eastwood, and Brian Puspos, and I'm the founder of the Reveal Dance Experience.
I think for me, just my textures, throughout it,
I feel like I had to like find a lot of
moments where I needed to fill in the gaps of the emptiness of like where musicality kind of wasn't.
This was a challenging, just challenge, of a piece for me because the vibe was kind of like retro
and it wasn't like a lot of musicality to kind of pull from.
So, I had to really tap into the weekend
and what he was kind of trying to like present, which I feel like was a very gray zone of love so,
I was trying to embody the what are we, of being in a relationship.
Okay, you better start off like this.
Wow, that body control.
Okay.
I mean... he's just... I'm so... you know???
I love how he's very calm with his movement but he still fills out the music.
The parts where he wants to be very fluid, he's very fluid and the parts where
he wants to be really sharp, it's really sharp, and you can definitely see that.
Well, that floor work...
That floor work...
I was like,
but like I want to keep peeking.
I could never do that, I would look like a walrus on the beach.
Dead, I don't know.
So, I think for new dancers, you could definitely learn body control,
because when he does that very fluid stuff,
it looks easy, but it's actually a lot of muscle control.
if you're hitting a picture, I mean you can just stop there, but if you're going through to the picture, you're using the entire arm.
you're not just getting there.
Choreographer number 3, Sabrina Belen.
What's up, guys?
My name is Sabrina Belen.
I've danced with Kaba Modern, toured with Lei Zing,
danced with Lisa from Blackpink, and also did a little bit of movement coaching with Irene from Red Velvet.
So, this piece, I took maybe about three days. So, I usually choreograph in my head.
I just sit down in front of a mirror and I just choreograph, and then the last day I just stand up and I do it.
And if it doesn't work out, I just make little adjustments.
This one took a while for me to just like get myself into the song first,
because if I'm not into it, then I can't be in this creative space.
Yeah, looks like she's taking her time.
What?
Okay, thank you guys for having me.
Uh, it's been an honor, bye!
Dang, there was just so many moments. Yo, like even the kick at the end, she's Kah!
Okay, you feel me like a strong outro, but still had that again feminine twist to the weekend's voice and sound.
From the job, she's already in it, but she has this mix of being feminine and she's always been good
at being like really hard-hitting performing and how she feels in here really translates
to her body language. And, it's like she's looking into my soul, you know? And it's kind of like...
More. I think my favorite moment was literally when she decided to pull this all the way around.
It was almost like unexpected. So, it was like the same kind of rhythm but she just almost ignored
all that and still brought it back to life.
I think what other dancers can learn from her,
is like having that confidence within themselves, to be able to expand and like push beyond just the
limit of just your box a lot of the dancers will sometimes feel like they're feeling a lot but they
just kind of keep it here where she's just able to like express it and just give all that sunshine to
all of us as the audience.
Yeah, I love you...
There, I said it, I said it, I love you if you're not okay
