A video of Chicago Multi-Cultural Dance Center (CMDC) ballerinas rocking out to Jason Derulo's "If It Ain’t Love" has gone mega viral.
The footage was initially posted on the Instagram account of their dance instructor, Homer Hans Bryant.
But a few weeks ago it was reposted on the Só Bailarinos Facebook page, where it has been viewed over 5 million times.
The CMDC school administrator, Cheryl Taylor, told BuzzFeed News she was surprised by the amount of attention the video has received.
Taylor said the dancers were excited that so many people were happy to watch their choreography. "The youngest dancer in the video is 12 and the oldest is 16," she added.
In the clip, the girls are performing a new dance style called "hiplet", which was invented by their instructor, Bryant. Hiplet is a combination of hip hop and ballet.
And they absolutely nail it. 🔥🔥🔥
Taylor said: "A lot of the girls in the video have been training with us since they were 3 years old." She also said the dancers had performed with the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra last year.
Yeah, they're totally on point.
People have praised the girls on their incredible strength.
And some want to see them live.
A. Whole. New. Level. ❤️❤️❤️
