Composed of dancers 60 years of age and older, the Pacemakers have been taking the country by storm with inspiring performances.
NEW YORK -- Composed of dancers 60 years of age and older, the Pacemakers have been thrilling audiences with inspiring performances, viral music videos and electrifying dance moves.
With dances choreographed by the former captain of the New York Knicks dance team, the Pacemakers have been performing at community centers and ballparks.When the COVID pandemic hit, the Pacemakers didn't miss a beat. They simply moved their weekend rehearsals to Zoom and kept on dancing."We wear our ages, our year of our birth, on our jerseys for a reason," founder Susan Avery said."So there's no shying away from how old we are. We shout it out from the rooftops.
Avery started the group after facing criticism as the oldest dancer for the Brooklyn Cyclones in 2017. "I was being cyber bullied," she said."People didn't want me on the team said some really awful things.""My daughter said to me, 'Why don't you start your own team?'" she said.
