I’m participating in Classy in Philadelphia’s Where In The World Wednesday! The idea of WITWW is to post a picture of you someplace in the world…it doesn’t have to be somewhere foreign or tropical. Just a picture of you somewhere you consider traveling.
I’m going to take a cue from Paula and make this week’s close to home. While the above photo doesn’t portray a certain area of Boston or even a particular attraction, it does represent a time when I stepped beyond a boundary, experienced something new and came out the other side with a fresh perspective.
One Christmas my friend Bryce decided to do a group present for our group of friends – she signed us up for a private hip hop class with Jose Eric Cruz. The night was a blast. Jose was so passionate about dancing and after he patiently taught us to dance, he gave us a rundown of the various types of hip hop, showing us videos and demonstrations. We walked away from that night with a greater appreciation for the intricacies of hip hop music, we learned how to Vogue and Cobra, and he also opened up a whole new world of Popping to us too.
Boston readers, if you’re interested in something fun and new, I highly recommend looking him up!
I used to take a hip hop dance class at my gym. So much fun! It’s the only reason I miss my gym membership.
I will happily take any hip hop class so long as there are no mirrors in the room!
You are one of the best novice Poppers I have ever seen. I’m glad I could provide you an outlet to unleash your previously unknown abilities!
OOOH, I want to do this. NOW.
Omg, what a fun idea!!! I wish you would have posted a video instead of a pic though.
This is such a random but fun recommendation. Thanks, Susan!
LOL hiphop class is super fun!:D and so much easier to do than one of those salsa classes. I signed up once and they almost killed me. Hiphop is great!:)
That sounds amazing and it looks from the picture that you guys had a ton of fun!
that is such an awesome gift idea!
That sounds like an awesome idea!! I totally need to remember that for the future.
Sorry I missed this before
I missed a few last week somehow. What a cool idea though..I took a hip hop class before; it’s hard!
