Wu Han hip hop night

Just when I thought that no one in Wuhan or China could dance, my girlfriend told me about her friend who was in fact a competition champion at breaking. This dude, coming in a few inches shorter than me runs a small hip-hop dance studio with a bunch of talented dancers. They tried to teach me and John, John taking advantage of a free lesson and me, being shy in the back corner.

They had a formal lesson, which included the 4-step to handstand stall (I’m not sure what the 2nd move was called), but it was really dope. I forgot to bring my camera, but I will get ahold of the pictures taken on other people’s cameras and post them up on here. Me and John are going to start a rival studio in our school, auditions start tomorrow.

Later that night, in hip hop tradition, we had a freestyle showdown. With Dave as our beatbox, - he was impressive in his beats and boxes - we were able to go off for about 10 minutes of the whitest rapping ever to take place. It was intriguing to say the least. This will become a weekly thing, I hope.
