Hip hop at NU before ReFresH

This was Kasa show 2005, my freshman year!! In a time, when the current seniors, were still high school seniors. Fuegobunnies!

What more can I say (flash)

To everyone who’s trying to learn What more Can I say? I made a flash program that maybe helpful. Basically, it can step frame by frame forward and backward and you can click on the squares to go to different parts of the song (I tried to get the beginning of each 8 count)

::EDIT:: I fixed it so it should all work now. Added keyboard functionality also.

Hope this helps!

Recovering….

Sup ya’ll.  So today, I went to SPAC with Kevin, Nick, and Alan and had a solid 3+ hours of practice with them.  Today, I learned that Finals, bad colds, and general fat-boy eating habits are highly detrimental to any dancer’s aspirations.

It was Terri-bad…

But fear not, I will be making a comeback… shortly.

So here is my popping/isos freestyle for today.  Just a little musicality training.  Yes, I’ve been listening to very fruity music lately.  But hey.  Christina Aguilera is a very talented woman… and she’s freaking hot.

Ya, and I’m not gonna be posting up a breaking video until Friday, cuz I’m still not fully recovered… unless u guys want to see a fat Asian boy rolling on the ground like he’s trying to reach for another donut….

Maybe I’m a Lion vid

Hello everybody! I finally uploaded the video!  Enjoy!  I will plan a review session when we all get back so look forward to that.

My computer is a total and utter lemon and does not like the idea of uploading stuff online so I apologize as well for the vid being AVI instead of mp4 as I normally like it.

ReFresH trailers preview

Hey guys,

I don’t know if you all saw the Gamblers clips that Joe posted, but in them they profiled each of their members, showcasing their styles and the moves they could do. I was thinking it would be cool to do that for ReFresH as well. This is a little something I put together for myself. I only included breaking because I didn’t really videotape my poppin or anything else.

The real ones will be better quality dancing and video.

If you are stressed with finals, I hope that this helps pick you up.
Fuego!

For those of you who don’t know get the joke, watch this video.

Lockin’ Style Talk

A real cool discussion about the origins of lockin’ and the style in general. Shows a lot of basic moves, slightly different from Leo’s style too. Check it out for yourself! This video is real on-and-off on youtube, but hopefully this upload is to stay…

Lots of variations on the basics. There’s a typo in there somewhere, but it’s easy to catch. =)

*Just noticed that he’s wearing the same thing in both vids…dude needs to shower. Second thought, me too.

IL Breaks 2009!

What is up, bboys and bgirls.

Just wanted everyone to know that…

THE BIGGEST ANNUAL BBOY EVENT IN ILLINOIS WILL BE HAPPENING IN APRIL 4-5, 2009!!!

ILL BREAKS WILL BE COMING TO UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS, URBANA-CHAMPAIGN!!

Internationally known bboys like Bboy Blonde (Leader of Extreme Crew from Korea – winner of BOTY 2007 – one of the world’s sickest powermovers) and Bboy Kid David (a sick style head from Renegades Crew in California – participant of Red Bull BC One 2006 and 2007).

They will be 2 of the 3 bboys judging the event/battles.

Not to mention…

THEY WILL BE HAVING FREE WORKSHOPS ALONG WITH BBOY CHECK-IT FROM CHICAGO TRIBES CREW!
There is also a chance that Bboy The End (my favorite powermover of all times) from the Korean Gamblerz Crew will be there (even though he injured his knee)!

This is a rare opportunity that you won’t wanna miss!  So far, only Chris Nho and I are for sure going.  SO TELL US IF YOU WANT TO COME!

Here is the Flyer:

Something fresh

You may be thinking, hey these are just breakdancing clips, but I guarantee they are fresh! Because watch closely and you’ll realize that these are BGIRLS!!!

If you thought that a girl that knows how to dance is attractive, how about a girl that knows how to break!?

Anyway, here are the clips. First one is of Bgirl Yurie (don’t know her crew)

Second is the IBE 2008: Bgirl Madness Final. Japan on the left (Queen of Queenz) vs. France on the right(No men’s land) Highlights: 3:20, 8:25

Third up is the B-Girl Battle BOTY 2008 International 2 on 2 (final) Japan (Narumi and Shie chan from Queen of Queenz) VS France (Manuela and Sarah from Figure2Style) highlights: opening set, 2:05, 2:50, 4:34 (this is what won it for france i think)

World Record Bboy Hold!

This is the sickest thing I’ve ever seen before.  HANDS DOWN!  Enjoy!
