Ksenia Parkhatskaya made a splash on the Ukraine’s version of So You Think You Can Dance a few years ago when she surprised the judges with an unexpected routine harkening back to a bygone era.
She begins her audition by singing a jazz song and quickly segues into dancing the Charleston. Although the classic American dance dates back to the 1920s, Ksenia’s performance makes the dance seem fresh and new. Her routine is filled with humor as well as some amazing moves. Watch for yourself in a video of the performance below!
Ksenia has performed the Charleston at various venues around Europe. Here she is dancing in Paris in 2015.
