Dancing Sensations: Les Twins

Photo by ShawnWellingphotos.com 
I was so amazed by these two identical twin brothers from France that I had to feature them on the blog for entertainment purposes.  I was first introduced to them by a good friend of mine who energetically proclaimed that they are the best dancers he's ever laid his eyes on.  I'm not sure if I'm ready to give them that designation just yet, but the two brothers might be very close.  Their dancing style mashes up all kinds of styles of dance including pop locking, break dance, aerial tricks, ballet, modern dance, lyrical, etc.

Officially known as Les Twins, Larry and Laurent Bourgeois, are very well known overseas and they have appeared on various TV dance competitions like Juste Debout, Battle of the Stylez, World of Dance and Urban Dance Showcase as well as The Ellen Degeneres show.  The 22 year old twins are originally from Guadeloupe and have 18 siblings, 9 of which also dance.  Les Twins have performed with Beyoncé Knowles, including the Run The World (Girls) music video and her live show, including Beyoncé's headline performance at the UK's Glastonbury Festival 2011.

Their gravity defying moves and ability to dance in sync with one another will leave you in awe and wanting more!  Although their style incorporates many already solidified dance moves, these twins move like no other and dance with their entire bodies creating an aesthetic that is all their own.  Check out some pics from a few of their photo shoots and the series of dance videos below:

Believe me, Beyoncé is no fool.  She saw these dancing twins and had to have them on her tour.  Lets see how far their star can rise.  Enjoy!
