A newbie definitely wouldn't be able to do it. And it was not just newbie, even seasoned dancers need constant practice, or they might lose their touch and fail to perform the move.
Vivian could do it before, but over the years, she got older and didn't feel like putting in the hard work to practice anymore. So, she can't pull off this move anymore.
It was uncertain whether Grace could still do it either.
Grace was also very surprised when she heard Violeta's words. "Vio, you don't have to push yourself."
Violeta wasn't trying to show off. Since she had spoken up, she was sure she could pull it off.
"Is continuous front walkover okay?"
Vivian replied, "Sure, this aisle is spacious enough. Go ahead."
Violeta placed her belongings on the table.
The host chimed in again, "In the previous episode of our show, several dancers did this. It's not that big a deal, really ... "
She didn't finish her sentence.
Violeta effortlessly started a front walkover.
It was like a show-off moment for her. She moved smoothly, as if she was up in the clouds.
She easily pulled off ... ten front walkovers!
The aisle was long enough for more than ten front walkovers.
But Violeta didn't need to go overboard.
Ten front walkovers were more than enough to shut them up without seeming too over the top.
Brushing off the dust from her hands, Violeta straightened her clothes and glanced sideways at Vivian and the others. "What do you think?"
The host who previously said it wasn't a big deal was left speechless.
Even the hotel staff standing by were stunned. They hadn't expected her to just come up and did it like that, with such smooth movements!
Not just the outsiders, even those familiar with the move were surprised.
At first, people assumed Violeta wasn't that old, and since she wasn't famous before, they figured she hadn't been dancing since she was young. But who would've thought she could pull off ten front walkovers in one go?
Doing ten front walkovers wasn't exactly unprecedented.
But achieving ten of them in a row proves Violeta's skills. She was not the dance newbie they thought she was.
In fact, pulling off such technically demanding moves so gracefully puts her ahead of most people her age.
If she can pull off that move, then the rest should be easy peasy for her.
Pretty impressive, indeed.
Standing next to Vivian, Lucy finally gave Violeta some credit this time.
