Day 6 - September 9th 2013 (By Elin Karabuda)

HI BLOG! :D Elin Karabuda here, but u can call me E-dog.

After the regular morning workout (it can be a pain in the *** sometimes, but I wanna be able to beat down the hulk, so I’m not complaining) we had class with Karsten. 

He taught us a lot of cool stuff like toprock techniques and breaking. 

It was all new to me, which made it extra exciting to learn a totally different way of dancing. 

Trying new stuff is always good! 

(And if you have a mirror in front of you, you get some good laughs…) 

Also, he told us that we get to choose a powermove (a mindblowing move we can use later on in shows, battles, audition etc.) that he will work on with us so we got it when the education is over. 

I really appreciate him doing this for us. 

So yea, we will be a cool bunch of people after this year!

After the lunchbreak we had a classmeeting were we talked about our goals and dreams. 

It was very interesting to hear what everyone wanted to make out of their dancing!

What I learned was to separate goals from dreams. 

And that we need both, but goals are a must in order to be happy and successful/satisfied. 

Dreams can be something totally unreal that you want to pursue in your life but doesn’t feel like it has to come true. 

Goals are reachable, and therefore we need to set them for us. 

Not only one big lifegoal but also many small ones during the path. 

I like these advice a lot. 

The small goals make you see that you really are getting somewhere and make you happier for smaller accomplishments.

So high-five for this meeting!

Our last class was with the HipDrop queen herself, Lin! 

This is what we learned on her class:

Yup! 

That was one hella good choreo!  

Besides that, I especially like that we all get constructive criticism on her classes. 

Because after we got that I think that everyone really improved dancing that choreo.

Bye! See u on day 13! ;D
