HIP HOP!


Well, like I mentioned yesterday, I signed up for hip hop lessons with a group of girls from church.  I had no idea what I was getting myself into, nor did I know there was going to be a performance at the end! YIKES!  Anyway, since I missed last week my friends were gracious enough to catch me up over the weekend, and last night was my first official lesson.  It was so much fun, and I'm surprisingly sore.  Honestly I think that is from my "attempt" at doing a backbend during the stretching session.  Seriously, a backbend????  I haven't tried to do that since junior high!  The girl leading it was on her tippy toes and arched over like a gumby doll.  I know she is younger than me, but I don't think after an HOUR of "stretching" I'd be able to do that.  Crazy!!!  Needless to say, it was a good opportunity to laugh!
The dancing part was good, although I'm going to need considerable practice to get in touch with my "gangsta/tough girl" style.  At this point I look well, like I "ain't got no rythem".  Ha!  I'm thankful they gave us a cd so we can practice inbetween so I don't look so "akward".

  1. Hey girl! I think that is so awesome you all are taking a hip hop class. I would totally be up for that. I took adult ballet and jazz classes before we had Haley and I really enjoyed it. I'm not sure everything went back the way it was before Haley though...so not sure I could hang!! ;)
