Every family has their own holiday traditions.
It may be building gingerbread houses, orโฆ it may be yelling at each other.
Some are more fun than others.
What matters around the holiday season is that you spend time together and appreciate the fact that youโre all in each otherโs lives.
One family in particular however, has a family tradition that is very hard to beatโฆ
Their annual family Christmas dance. And wow, it is impressive!
I donโt know about you, but I canโt even dance like that when Iโm aloneโฆ
It all starts off pretty low-key.
All family members frozen in position, waiting to start. The music is industrial, clanky, with train noises and rhythmically banging metal.
You may at this point wonder whatโs going onโฆ is this going to be some heavy handed contemporary piece about the woes of industrial development?
Apparently not! When they get into it, it all starts bumping!
The music abruptly changes to Justin Bieberโs rendition of โSanta Claus is Coming to Townโ.
This is a very contemporary version indeed! Itโs upbeat and poppy.
Thatโs more like it, now we can feel that holiday spirit!
The family moves with impressive coordination, young and old, every generation seems to be getting involved.
The troupe donโt just stop at dancing thoughโฆthey also get acrobatic.
Two of the lads brace them selves in position, when a third rolls over their backs!
Thatโs some Cirque de Soleil talent right there.
You have to be pretty confident that youโre not going to fall on your face to attempt a move like thatโฆand in the living room.
It wouldnโt be a dance routine without a classic dance move.
Heads up though, Iโm not talk about a pirouette, but I am talking about something a little more modernโฆ
Iโve never seen anyone do the Nae Nae at Christmasโฆuntil now
For the big final move they all stack on top of each other to form the merriest pyramid Iโve ever seen.
Of course the one to go at the top is the smallest and the youngest.
It looks as if sheโs shining like a Christmas starโฆ but donโt worry itโs just the ceiling light, which she seems to be putting her head precariously close to.
It would be terrible if something caught alightโฆ
Thank Rudolph nothing does, although the whole gang collapses into a giggling pile when the bottom gives way.
The family rise and the whole show becomes a freestyle as the grandparents are welcomed onto he dance-floor.
I donโt even want to know how long it takes to choreograph this!
The family member who posted the video had this to say:
My familyโs annual Christmas tradition is to make a dance to a Christmas song. There are 8 children in my family and half of us are now married with our own kids. This year is our 4th annual music video (and) โฆ Itโs our best work yet. Another fun fact is that every year we wear our Motherโs quirky Christmas sweaters!โ
Well doesnโt that just warm your heart?
