Morning. I wanted to just tell ya'll about my Intro to Hip Hop dance class I am taking. At first it seemed dumb to try at a beginner's level of dance that I am excelled in but I was wrong (Backspace, delete that...LOL). I decided this Summer I was going to be about it and not always talk about what I am going to do. For the past years I have been a DC resident, I feel like I haven't fully taken the advantages that I have to educate myself and try new things. This summer however, is going to be different. I will be traveling and taking dance classes just so I can get toned.
Thursday, was my first day in class. My dance teacher is about my age or even younger and he's ultra bubbly. I came to class with the expectation of learning combinations that I could use in the club LOL.I was stretching when he came in and stated what we were going to learn in the class. Our first class revolved around isolations and poppin'. As soon as I heard this I was a little salty that the class wasn't what I wanted to learn. I stood in the back of the class and did my warm up (which wasn't bad), and we started straight with the isolations. I do have some dance background so it was a breeze.From the isolations we learned how to do the wave. Of course being a black person I can do the wave (fast) but when we have to break that shit up, I looked as if I was remedial. My damn arms were flaring every which a way. I became frustrated. The most simpliest shit had me huffling and puffing. I have a whole lot to work on and that was just Day 1. Plus my dance teacher mentioned he was gonna incorporate the wave into our workout...FML for real, cuz that shit right there hurt. Though my first impression was slighted, I'm going to stick it out because I will definitely be toned in this class. Next week's session will be break dancing. I just hope I don't end up in the hospital LOL
