GOTTA DANCE

This was a fun and inspiring documentary about a senior hip hop dance team put together to entertain during half time at NBA basketball games. There was only 1 man, Joe, and he was the least rhythmic of the group. He eventually got all the moves right but his body was wooden. However, he and his wife swing dance and jitterbug and he could "cut a fine rug" with that style; Joe was light on his feet and smooth and had lots of rhythm.

All the team members had to be at least 60 and most were in their 70's and several ladies were in their 80's including Fanny, a petite short Phillipino.

The film included not only their performances at the games but their practices and how the dancing and the discipline and the team work changed their lives.

Great show. Its out on video.
