SYTYCD - 8/15 - the Final 4

I loved Lacey & Sabra's partner dance. I was very shocked by the judges' reaction to it. I thought it was beautifully done. They handled the stylized movement wonderfully and made it look natural. They were committed to the characters. The piece had nice levels.....good contrasts between the fast and slow sections and they were well-connected to each other.

Lacey & Danny's waltz was so classy and elegant. And I actually really liked the way they were lit. It looked as if they were dancing outside on a starlit night.

Danny & Neil's partner dance was full of energy and athleticism. Mia did a wonderful job of blending their strengths into the choreography. Did anyone else notice that Neil missed the leap over Danny's head that was shown in the package at the top? They showed him going over Danny's head in the rehearsals, but in the performance he went over his left shoulder instead.

Sabra's solo was just joyful. And the cha-cha showed off her sexy side, which we haven't seen a lot of prior to this.

Interesting choice of music for Danny's solo - LOL! OMG.....like 6 soaring, perfect grand jetes in a row followed by about 16 pirouettes.....and he still comes out of it like he was just taking a walk. That boy is perfection personified. It was so beautiful that I teared up. That solo clinched it for me.....when he danced it, I said, "He just won."
