Hip Hop song, Lets see.....

Check out Mary J. Blige Just Fine Remix with LiL'Wayne... It has Great energy and the old school Chubb Rock Treat 'em Right beat.

We're doing it for a solo!!!

Girls PRAY for me!! Getting stressed! So much to do dance wise...

This weekend in PA Judging DAP and Next weekend Competition, new dances are not fully clean yet and since im going to be out of town this weekend no long Saturday practice to work things out! I've been pulling overtime everyday this week at the studio to try to make up for it!!!!

Please pray they do well at the comp!!!

Thank you sweetie!! Im happy that your doing the Mary J song!!! Love it!! The dance is going to be fierce girl I can feel it!!

I've judged on LI and have taught at a workshop too, and you were right, and I just hated that, knowing that these are MY LI people acting soo rude! The younger kids were cool, really sweet, one school inparticular I loved, but the other ones were so rude.
Its not any better down south though. Girl I can tell you stories. We have had costumes stolen, yes stolen girl at Star Power 2 years ago, have dance moms come up to us and say rude stuff to our dancers and parents, its insane how competitive people get. I train my dancer to be nice to EVERYBODY, smile and say good luck, my kids do that, most of the times, they get a good response, other times they get starred at like they have six heads!

Yep some of the girls look at my kids like they are strange ...WHY not say good luck back?? is that so hard? It upsets me to know it's like that all the way around not just LI We should start a new competition that teaches real sportmanship!!! and respect!

I love to hear stories tell me tell me
I can't believe you've had costumes stolen that's insane!!
