Dance out loud

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

I went up to my second home (LIPA!) on Saturday for a weekend of hip hop luv. Teaching the authentic nature of hip hop dance styles with Jonzi D-Breakin Convention, Ivan-Birdgang, Mouse-2006 world BBoy champion and Bagzi-House master.  Presented by Xena productions we all taught our styles to a wicked hip hop community, I had a great weekend and met some serious funk heads, a great weekend of sharing knowledge and cyphers.  Thanks for all who attended and Christina for putting on a sick event. If you were there let us know what you thought.

Peace
