Clements and her dance students showed the crowd that it doesn't matter how old you are; when you got it, you got it. Clements does everything from rap to some pretty slick head spins at the end of the performance.

Once the performance was finished, Clements' students rushed the stage to give her a huge hug. You can definitely tell she'll be missed.
