A little known, dirty secret of mine is this: I love the TV show So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD). Really, really love.
I took ballet for a few months as a kid, but never actually became a dancer, nor did I ever really aspire to be one as I got older. But that doesn't mean I can't love it. Sure, people pick on me for loving this show as much as I do, but I think it's really because they just don't understand.
Dance is a beautiful art form. And, this show is full of so many diverse styles and just as many diverse people to dance them. It rocks my socks.

This week was the season finale, and what I love about that - though it makes me sad to wait for the next season to roll around - is that you get to see the best of the best. And each season seems to be full of really good and interesting dances.

I've posted just a few of my favorites from this season, and as you can see, the styles vary. Though I do admit to being partial to some of the Hip-Hop routines. Those guys do crazy shit. I wish I had enough time to post all of my faves. If you love dance and you have never watched this show, you really should check it out.
