This is a YouTube video titled "Can Anyone Learn To Dance?" featuring a conversation between Ksyusha and Oleg discussing the nature of dancing, the ability of people to learn dance, and Oleg's husband's exceptional dancing skills and background. The discussion explores dance as both an art form and a sport, with personal anecdotes about dance training and competition.
Can anybody dance?
Yes. I'm going to say yes. Are they good dancers? Not always, but literally my job is to take somebody who is not a dancer and give them the tools and try to transform them into a dancer. Do I think everybody has rhythm? Absolutely not. No. Some people just naturally hear music and have that like, musicality in them. Some people just don't. So I can do my best and make you, I don't know if you're a dancer. I'm just using you as an example. But I could make you a surface level dancer in an hour.
In an hour?
Yeah. I could teach you how to dip me and like maybe do a little cha cha cha, a little basic salsa. Now, whether you execute it like a dancer and feel it like a mover is one thing, but I think anybody can dance.
Your husband is incredible. Like, I watched some videos in preparation for this and I, I couldn't believe how. I mean, you're incredible too, but it's, it's more expected. It's not as expected from him.
Yeah, he is nuts. Next level.
Yeah. Like, what is that? Like, was he like you? Like, he wanted to dance from the time he was really young?
No. So he actually grew up in Ukraine and in Europe in general, dance or like cotillion is what you do for etiquette. So, like, your parents will put you into dance or whatever to learn like discipline and how to hold yourself and how to like, handle a woman or whatever. So his parents just put him in that, like an after school program. And he never was like, oh, I want to be a dancer. He's a competitor. He loves competition. He would love to be a basketball player. But he's 5, 5, 10, you know, and that's just not in the cards for him. But he used dance as like dance sport. For him, it is a sport. And I think that's what you see. That's so next level about him. It's a full body experience. And I've never, like, we have this term in dance called marking, you know, where you like kind of do it maybe like 25, 50%, not the full 100. I've never in my whole entire life seen him mark. It's just not in his body. He has to do the whole thing full out every single time. And I think that's what makes him so exquisite.
Yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's an art form.
Thanks. Yeah.
And also like watching him, you would think, okay, well, maybe I could do a little, like, I could learn to dance a little.
Yeah.
Like, probably not true.
If you were here, he'd probably stand you up and he'd dip you himself. Like, he'd. He'd be all over it.
That'd be scary.
