DAY 2 at greenridge sec



Morning didn't start right. I was caught in the peak hour traffic jam the right from the bus-stop at my house. It took me more than 30 minutes just to get to boon lay station. And when i reached there, it was 15 minutes to the reporting time at the school. To think I still had to take the train to CCK followed by 6 stops of the LRT. Hmph...

Unfortunately, Dawn has to take the class herself since I was late. According to her, with her morning depression going on, the class was in the similar mood as well.

The 3 sessions we had were really random. In our first hour, we were supposed to teach hip-hop. In the end, we spent half the time for hh and the other for lyrical. Everyone was slightly bored. Cant be help though. They didn't want to learn new steps nor did they look forward to polishing the moves.

The second session, we did reggae and this time we both polish and teach new moves. One of the funniest part in reggae was the "step-hop to the front" move (yq specialty) where majority of them could not get it. It turned out to be a stampede. This stampede had scared many people. haha...the greenridge band members who had to enter the room to store their instruments and the cameraman during their finale performance.

After lunch we had our last session before the showcase. We ran through the 3 dances numerous times trying to get them to move neatly during the transitions to each song. With nothing else to do, we made everyone to get into a circle and pull them out to freestyle in groups or as an individual. Some of them we sporting though reluctant initially. There were a couple of entertaining ones and some super cool ones.

This Jurong sec senior pulled her juniors along and asked them to follow her steps. Ha...it made the crowd roar with laughter with all those super funny moves. There were 2 super cool ones: a malay girl just freestyle with superbly high energy. Dawn and I were like WA.. COOl MAN. And of course there was a breaker guy who in came up to do his moves. WOW... it was quite scary though. He seem to be challenging the Jurong sec guys. It was like some showdown session. Everything ended with Bianca doing her moves to the music LOW.

And it was SHOWCASE TIME. I'll try uploading the video again.

Everything ended with photo taking. So here's the pics:

This is my first experience teaching such a big group for 2 days. Felt it was really enriching although it was quite irritating at times. Will miss the fun ha...
