A dance battle broke out at a retirement center when two older adults heard Aretha Franklin’s classic song ‘Respect’ and couldn’t resist showing off their moves.
A YouTube video shows what happened when residents at a retirement center gathered to listen to classic songs.
When Franklin’s 1967 hit ‘Respect’ started playing, one man and one woman jumped up from their seats. They couldn’t just sit and listen to their favorite classic.
These two started a full on friendly dance competition right there in front of everyone. They moved around the floor with ease, stepping and turning with real rhythm.
Near the end of the short clip, two more people joined them on the dance floor making the moment even more sweet.
This sweet video reminds us that joy doesn’t have an expiration date. These dancers didn’t worry about what anyone thought. They just got up and danced to their beloved music.
Let their example encourage us to find reasons to smile and celebrate each day.
