The song “High hopes” is literally meant to give people the idea of not only dreaming but also to work hard for what you seek. May it be a successful venture at academics, workplace, or generally at life.

Life is not at all linear, it is complicated. At some point, we had to experience going downhill, though, despite adversities, we need to hold our head up. “Stay up on the rise, and never come down.”

Grace and Enthusiasm, a fitting combination for a hope-giving product

The choreography portrayed a lively interpretation that befits the theme of the song. There are different levels of energy applied in their steps in every part of the song. The verses display a medium amount of energy in which the steps are sending you a certain message.

The pre-chorus part focuses on flexible stretches and wave-like movements which offers a slower and fluid gesture as if it builds up energy for the next part.
