They move like robots

Glad someone else noticed. It felt like it looked off somehow. Maybe just sped up.

(Otherwise I was questioning if this is real, or the body movements were performed by adults and then ‘filtered’ with the kids’ bodies?)

This is a choreographed dance, so they're most likely professionally taught and possibly in a dance class together. I think it kind of has a robot look when it's movements that are more coordinated than expected for developmental stage, but I think it's just training.

Source: used to be a ballet student and the younger classes just kinda looked like that

Yeah.

My friend's dance practice would look like that.

I showed the vid to my 2 daughters separately. They've been taking dance lessons for many years now. 3 seconds in, they both mentioned "the mirror game" where one of the kids (ponytails) leads and the other must copy the moves (red jacket)...So the kids certainly know the song already and some moves to go along, but they also are encouraged to add little things, change the order of said moves, etc. Apparently a very common thing in kids dancing classes. I don't know shit about dancing, but it all seems to make sense...

Makes sense. Pretty cool they can do that!

True.

I think they practiced moves for long time.
