I always like to point out this video to people who ask about her dancing skills:



I'm sure people have other examples, too, but this one's my favorite.

Bad Drive (the face tour), Eien and Eat You Up are my favorite BoA's dancing.

Her movements are so quick and precise. She's a technician of dance for me.
She's better than many guys.

BoA's stage presence along with her dancing skill is what always gets me. She moves with such ease, yet puts so much power and energy into it that watchers just have to be amazed. Popular choreographers all over the world have commented on her power and precision when it comes to dancing.

Kahi, Min and Hyoyeon are fabulous dancers, there is no denying it. Yet, BoA just has this special "UMPH" behind the way she moves that I have to put it just above them. I am trying not to be bias behind it at all because I love them all, even though I do genuinely love BoA more.

Aside from the precision and smoothness that BoA has in her dancing, I think its the attitude/confidence she gives off when she's dancing that makes her very charming and "want to look at" - she dominates the stage. The way she looks at the audience while her body is moving in whatever difficult moves just shouts "professional" and "badass" ...... And I do think BoA has a great proportionate dancing body.

I think that what made BoA special is she has pretty good skills for dancing while singing.
The other names you've mention surely can dance well but I don't think that they can sing well while dancing.

[2boamystar]

First BoA can do very precise and smooth dancing. I find other "good" dancers in K-pop trying so hard. It is not smooth. BoA dances like a breeze.
Secondly, BoA can sing and dance at the same time! She owns in that area

[monay23]

She's a versatile dancer. More importantly, she can hit the moves really hard if she really makes the effort to do so, which she usually limits these days for her live performances so that her vocals are good. And she'll show us that in that movie.

[milestone✧]

I believe that BoA has tons of techniques since she was trained for so many years by many choreographers.
Her feel of beat, being balanced and most of all, she's hardworking.
I'm dancer myself and I have seen tons of dancers and to be honest, singers are rarely considered as professional dancers. But as a singer, BoA should be considered  one  the best female dancer out of all kpop singers. Of course together with Kahi.

[HQQ]

Her choreographer for Eien said that BoA can learn choreography in about 10 minutes so she's an incredibly fast learner too.

^ My fav!!! The moves look easy, but to obtain that precision is not easy at all.

Just a summary from all of the above, BoA is the best singer-dancer to me because:
1- she can both sing & dance at the same time, and pretty darn good at both!!
2- She is a versatile dancer. She can do all kind of dancing from sexy to aggressive.
3- Like Cori said, she put a special 'UMPH" in her dancing. Other people can cover her moves, but they can never cover that factor BoA puts in the dancing, from the move of the body, to the expression on her face, it's just unique & special.
One thing I really like about BoA dance is that it just 'enough'. Not too sexy, not too covered up, not too weak, not too strong, not too slow not fast. Just perfectly enough. (if it even makes sense to you ^^" )

Oh, almost forgot, some more of my favorite of all times Epic!

[yunapolaris]

I gotta cut the post in half to post all of the videos
'My Name' is the perfect example of BoA being 'just enough'. Many people, both celeb are non-celeb, tried to cover My Name, but they were either lack of sexiness of were too much of it, while BoA just had it enough, perfectly


And this, epic!


Feel so nostalgic watching these old songs

[xxiicorina]

I believe it's the mood that BoA puts into her dances. I mean it's easy to give the mood to the listener when you're singing right? But it's more difficult to receive that feeling you want to give for the audience. BoA's dances sends out his strong vibe that always gives me goosebumps.
She dances very smoothly and with a lot of confidence, you can tell by the expressions she puts on her face while shes dancing which I also concentrate on when I watch her dance.

Though as you said that Hyoyeon & Min are well known for their robotic, popping moves BoA can also do those moves as well. She shows a variety of dance moves into one if you noticed ((:

Don't forget BoA dance moves are really powerful and hard, but it's even harder when you're singing, BoA can pull that off easily.

[superlita]

I think BoA herself said she can learn a chereography piece in one day, but it takes her a week to perfect it. For a singer/entertainer, she's one of the best dancers out there– one who can actually sing WELL and dance powerfully at the same time.

luv to read all the comment....how amazing BoA....sooo proud
