"Don't let yesterday take up too much of today."

Something that I used to wonder as a dancer back when I was in my high school’s dance team and first starting up FamBiz (back then known as E.S.U.I.) was why some rehearsals or performances would go so well one moment, and then not so much the next. I know it was frustrating for the coaches and captains, and was sure as hell frustrating for me.
I guess this can relate to a lot of movies sequels, most of them will never be as good as the first.

It came to understanding that no matter how good the product is done before, the next one may or may not be as good as the previous, if not more. People want consistency. And that’s what I believe a lot of us want. People can only stomach a roller coaster for so longer before throwing up.

T2P Performance at Jagged

Here's another performance video with T2P at the Jagged Showcase! It's a contemporary
pole dancing showcase. I didn't get a chance to watch the whole show, but
from what I saw, it was sick dope. This set is
definitely one of my favorites. I loved the choreography that we all learned. Dancing
around those poles was definitely a challenge. I was hella paranoid that I was going
to hit it during some parts of the routine. Over all it was fun sharing that stage with everyone!
Here's the video clip, hope you enjoy!

Wannabe Rockstar Choreography

A couple months ago I did a music video shoot for a local artist with some of my friends from FamBiz. We were asked to choreograph an entire dance for the whole song. Marc, Steph and I broke the song down into three parts plus the chorus which would stay the same. I took on the task of the first verse and the chorus, Stephanie with the second verse, and Marc doing the break down. It looked pretty dope when we put it all together. Right below is the choreography Steph and I made, I unfortunately didn't have anymore battery when it came to Marc's part, so make sure to stay tuned for the final product!

Boogiezone with The Phanie

September 27th was my girlfriends very first Boogiezone Class. Check out the videos from the class. She's gotten really far in her one year of being within the community. She got into Breed, became a director for Teen Groov and FamBiz, and got to compete at Hip Hop International! She's definitely a talented individual and it was fun helping her teach her piece that day.
