Choreographed, limb-centric performance / Sadeck Waff

French dancer, choreographer and artistic director Sadeck Waff is known for his limb-centric performances. As part of the farewell ceremony for the 2020 Tokyo Paralympic Games, he choreographed a beautiful, precise geometric, synchronised work with 128 performers seated in wheelchairs. The dramatic music composition that accompanied the performance was created by WOODKID.

‘This week of creating and sharing with a mix of people from all walks of life has comforted me about the power and beauty of being human’. - Sadeck Waff

I know the main dude is a dancer, but I still want to talk about his isolations and his fluidity. Mesmerising! This performance was stellar!

How do you even coordinate something like this, how do you teach each section on how and when to move. Feels overwhelming to me. Incredible!

[agata]

They just move their arms a bit and yet the effect is amazing. Synchronised movement is always effective because of the number of people that perform it. Cool!

Americas Got Talent bought me here. I rarely comment. But your work is OUTSTANDING!

Imagine if this was massive. Like at a football game. It would make the stadium wave look like a ripple.

I've always found synchronization in any form to be amazing. This is another great example.

Now, if only the world could be in sync in PEACE with one another. How beautiful it would be too.

Can't get enough of watching them. They truly need to do a worldwide tour.❤

Amazing! I've never seen any choreography remotely like this. Well done all!

[Mrstigger]

That was AMAZING and beautiful and I’m so proud of that entire group❣️. They must have worked so hard and it shows. 👋🇨🇦

My daughter and I watched this together. We were both in awe. 🤩🥳

Участвала съм през 1968 година във фона за Световния младежки фестивал в София, България. Тогава с разноцветни флагове трябваше да се "рисуват" различни картини! Подготовката отне почти цяло лято, а фонът беше голям-цял сектор от най-големия стадион в държавата. Зная какъв труд се крие зад всичко това! Браво! 🙋🇧🇬

This random video, but also a masterpiece comes to my timeline.

Very cool work. Reminds me a bit of the opening ceremonies at the Bejing Olympics where there was a similar type of choregraphed movement, except there were hundreds of performers.
