Aaah, I am a happy camper cos I found the song I’ve been obsessing over. Heh heh.
I went for LHH last week and I am never not going ever again. Srsly, I skipped out for 2 weeks… and came back, gasping like a fish out of water. Not fun y’alls. It felt so foreign to me and it look only 2 classes for me to lapse back into suckitude, even after months of taking the class. Hmmmm.
Well, okay, there was also the fact that the routine was a continuation of the previous one and since I didn’t come, it was all new to me and my brain (and limbs) were struggling to comprehend. And I was already tired from Gi.n’s LAHH class. So, it wasn’t like the ideal situation. I blanked. A lot. And it was crappy.
But the choreography was soooo lovely. I’m like a total Gi.n fangirl but Ryan is equally, if not more, amazing. In a different yet just as kick-ass way. The way that man moves… he makes it look so effortless! Sighhhh.
Then on Friday, I went for my first “session”. A bunch of us are planning on session-ing regularly. What it means is, we book a studio and we learn from each other. One or two of us will prepare choreography to share with everyone. It’s a more informal, relaxed atmosphere than going to class; it allows us to learn from each other, to grow together as dancers. A very cool idea by Ca.leb and he did all the legwork in making it happen, so kudos to him!
They’ve session-ed before but this was my first one and it was a lot of fun. Can.dy and Ca.leb led this session. I really enjoyed learning from them and I enjoyed the company! Hilariousness all around, heh. Candy’s one was really challenging. The speed, the isolations! That girl is nuts (in a good way)! I just saw the clip and we weren’t too bad. ;) I didn’t totally suck which is a relief. HAHA!
We’re taking turns to share and at some point it’s gonna be me. Which is nerve-wrecking, to say the least. I haven’t officially choreographed anything and this would be my virgin attempt. I have a few more weeks before my turn comes up so I’ve started to think about it. Stresssss. But a good kind of stress? Heh. I haven’t found the perfect song to inspire me yet. Hmmmmm hmmmm.
I don’t feel like an adequate dancer as it is, so choreographing and articulating it to others will be a learning experience. And it’ll force me to widen my dance vocabulary and to create something interesting to watch.
Anyway, I’ve decided that come March, I’m gonna dance as much as I can. I’m gonna max out and try taking class every day and see if I can withstand it physically and mentally. I want and need to improve and grow!!!
