Yo Yo, last night we had a wicked show at the MEN Arena in Manchester. The vibe was awesome and I have to say having 23,000 people jump up off their feet with such vibrancy and passion was something that I’ll never forget. Thank you so much to the phenominal parents, audience and Young Voices Choir for bringing so much enthusiasm and passion to the show. I can honestly say I have never been part of such a massive freestlye jam! If you were at the event or you came last year, hit us up and let us know what you thought of the Urban Strides performances. Let us know your highlights and what you enjoyed the best so we can make sure we are giving you guys what you want.

Last year we received thousands of enquiries of people wanting to carry on with Urban Strides street dance. Unfortunately we currently don’t have classes in Manchester . Instead we were planning to sell our awesome Pure Street Dance tutorial DVD with free Beardyman Beatbox CD for half it’s normal retail price as a gift to the Young Voices Choir. However, demand was so high we sold out at the O2 so we had no DVD’s to bring to Manchester! So we are offering this special deal on our online store until Wednesday at midnight. THIS IS A ONE TIME DEAL AND WILL NOT BE REPEATED! You need to write the promotional discount code “Manchester” when you purchase the DVD to ensure your discount. Click here to get one before they run out…again! http://street-dance-store.com/store/gbu0-prodshow/15.html

Hey dudes, it’s that time of year again for the young voices tour.  We are taking in Birmingham, London, Manchester, Belfast, Dublin and Sheffield!  Last night we performed at the NIA and the audience were awesome and the school choirs were dope! We would like to thank everyone on the tour for their hopsitality, the technical and venue staff and all the performers.  We cannot wait to rock it again tonight! The interactive dance section was wicked and I have to say well done to all of the schools who practiced so hard you were like a hard core bunch of Urban Strides NInjas!  If you were at the show we would love to hear from you let us know what you thought of the Urban Strides performances, let us know what you liked the best, your feedback is very important to us and helps us keep on top of our game, big love,

Keep on dancin’

I did a talk to a group of enthusiastic and ambitous young people from the Urban schloars.  I spoke about some of my experiences and hope the scholars learned something….. I did! I really enjoyed the day and really appreciated all the kind words from you after the talk it made it all worthwhile, thank you.  If you were at the talk and you learned something or took something from it I would love to hear what it was that made a difference, your feedback is really important to make sure I know what makes a difference to you so I can help others is a similar situation.  So if you are commited to change let me know what you thought and let me know how you will use what you learned today in your own lives, leave a comment below.

Peace

p.s good luck this year I know you have the ability to make the most out of it.

I have been asked to do a lecture for over 100 young people on the urban scholars programme.  This is a programme set up to help people achieve their full potential.  I will be talking about the dedication, sacrifice but ultimately the feeling off fullfilment you have when you start to realise your dreams. I will be talking about the positivity needed when things don’t go as planned and how to keep on going no matter what, ( you know, light subject matter?!) Hopefully by sharing some personal experiences it should be interesting, if not it will just be me chatting rubbish on stage in front of over a 100 young people, standard fare really! should be fun! If you were at the lecture let me know what you thought feedback is always appreciated.  have a good weekend!

Move it was sick!  Classes were off the hook the feedback we received from you was awesome,thank you so much, it reminds us that we are doing the right thing.  I was so pleased at the interest we received in our authentic approach it re invigorated my faith in the dancers of today and tomorrow.  It seems many people have forgotten the need for foundation and education so respect to all you who came and did the Urban Strides taster class.  As for our performances thank you so much to the comments we received it was so great to hear that you enjoyed it so much.  If you felt our performance inspired or interested you let us know, thank you so much for all the comments left so far it means so much to us.   Let us know what you think, we appreciate any feedback, thanks for taking the time.

After serving the main stage last year we have also been asked to perform everyday! It’s been missions rehearsing all during half term, as well as 14 hrs a weekend! The official dance crew have been making us all proud putting in the hardcore training to make sure we can truly represent. We have our beatbox show on Friday with “Experimental” we are trying out some new shizzle so it would be cool to get your feedback, we will performing on the main stage at 16.45-17.15

Following on from an inspirational week of locking with boogaloo and locking legend Suga Pop I have been passing down the authentic nature of locking and will be showing our first piece in a long line of locking sections in the breakbeat section on the main stage between 11.45-12.15. It would be good to see you there come down and say hi we will be at stand no.34

Hope your all good.
