SwingOutDayton team choreography to OK GO

One of my favorite moments at ALHC this past weekend was the SwingOutDayton team performance. They created a routine based on OK Go’s Youtube winner “Here It Goes Again”. We’ll have to wait for the official video release, but here is version one that they performed at the Battle of the Swing Cities in Detroit. If I remember correctly, the ALHC performance had four couples instead of three, and the routine was polished.

In a division full of serious swing routines (and that includes ours), SwingOutDayton totally blew everyone away - I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. Awesome job, Dayton! Too bad I couldn’t tell them in person how much I appreciated their performance.

EDIT - Joanna posted a link to the ALHC video in the comments.

    I have been a huge fan of OK Go for ages… that dance routine was great to see. Thanks for linking. Now I have to show all my friends who are big fans of the treadmill routine.

    You have no idea how exciting it is to see this here. These are the people I dance with every week. I was in Detroit with them when they did this version (when Deor is telling someone that “it better be on youtube, he’s pointing to me).
