DAY 100 - February 7th 2014 (By Kallum)

Today after the usual warm up we had an hour of freestyle where we practice to a variety of different music and then cypher for around half an hour. 
It's still kind of new for us on the program but already there is a big improvement, just being comfortable in the circle and experimenting with different movements and styles. 
We're really getting used to the vibe of a cypher, giving each other energy and props and growing as a group in the circle. 

This week as you know we've had Anthony Lee and it has been one hell of an experience. 
I honestly wish you could understand how amazing it has been, my skills aren't as a writer but I will try my best to explain. 
The great thing about Anthony is his diversity, he's had us freestyling, creating, learning, making beats, collaborating, talking, listening, teaching, experimenting, we've done so much in such a short space of time and his methods of teaching each one are so well thought out.

Today we started by learning more of a piece that he started teaching at Winter Drop...I'm keeping it hush but it's an amazing piece. 
Afterwards we had to share with each other the pieces of choreography that we have spent the week collaborating on in pairs, and it was truly inspiring to get the opportunity to watch my team mates dance as well as getting to dance alongside Anton. 
It's my first experience of collaborating and I'm so pleased with the outcome. 

Anthony also spent the week creating a new piece for us, which is another reason why he has been so good as a teacher. 
He is still in touch with the student process and is adamant on learning from every situation he's been in so far, sharing with us just as much of himself as we have been sharing ourselves with him. 
It's been a truly mutual bond, one that I'm sure we will all remember and look forward to our next meeting, hopefully in LA in a few months.

Until next time blog.

Peace
