Costumez

I've had a few halloween events to go to...acouple of halloween swing dances, so I needed more than one costume. I put these two together mostly with things I already had.

Happy Halloween


Gadoo was surprisingly open to wearing clothing. This opens up a whole new world of shopping: cat fashion.

Catching Up

I haven't posted in a while, because I've been busy, and what I've been busy with hasn't been all that exciting. Quick recap: in the past month I've been busier at work, started taking and teaching dance classes again, done some shoe shopping, and started strict(er) regimen at the gym.

Last night I got back from Monsters of Hip Hop, a weekend-long hip hop dance convention, where we (myself, the studio owner, and five students) took classes with some of th biggest names in choreographers. This was our third time going, but our first time bringing students, and it went suprisingly well. This time around, the tour made a stop in Worcester, MA, which was an infinitely easier trip than going to New Jersey, where it usually is.

All of the classes and choreographers were great this time. We all loved LUAM, who I also danced with at the Pulse in New York this past summer. I learned part of this dance on Saturday:



LUAM also has a great line of hip hop inspired clothing, Wild Child Nation. Since I abstained from buying one at the Pulse, I indulged in a cobalt blue hoody with white and metallic silver printing on it.

I'm tired and sore, but I had a great time, and the weekend has renewed my love for dance.
