YouTube recently suggested the first video below on a day when I didn’t have much time. I did what I always do. I bookmarked it and promptly forgot about it. Then it popped up again. And again. I finally caved in and watched it, just so it would stop appearing. Wow, am I glad I did!
Thanks to YouTube’s persistence, today we’re celebrating the sexy, classic, fantastic choreography by Christin Olesen, a London-based, Stockholm-born choreographer, teacher, and dancer. Her choreography feels like updated Fosse, if that’s even possible.
Olesen started dancing at the age of 10. She says she always knew that’s what she was meant to do. She has done choreography for well-known artists including Kylie Minogue and Years & Years and has worked as a dancer with artists such as Camilla Cabello, Dua Lipa and Pink.
You can see all the sexy, remarkable work by Christin Olesen on Instagram and YouTube.

Another one that I want to give more than five stars. Ten would be a good number. Great work and outstanding dancers. Yes, reminded me of Bob Fosse work. Hal

As with all dance-related posts, you were in my head as I worked on it!

Excellent. Yes, Bob Fosse looks like such an influence on her work.

I wouldn’t have thought updated Fosse could be a thing, but there are definitely strong influences in there.

When my feet were much younger, I used to LOVE dancing in heels! (Now I prefer sitting in flip flops.)

I’m not into flipflops. Don’t like anything between my toes and I ‘m not sure they are good for our feet. UGA did a study on that.

I wear sparkly orthopedic ones. I’m in toe-tal denial.
