This photo was taken with my phone cam under my legs. It was the evening when Icha was first making the choreography for us. The song is "Swagga Jack Me". As you can see she was sweating and me too. I was taking a break while she was exploring for the next moves.
It was the first time in our practice, she put a hat on my head. "Pake topi dong, gue ngerasa nari sama anak kecil", she said. And you know what, those big hats DO give effect. She also taught me that dancing hiphop is not just about doing the routines, but WEAR THE ATTITUDE. So I did, she seems satisfied.
The choreography was... original and really cool. I can tell she has her own style and it was really fun and challenging to do her choreography of this song.
There was Puka, her cat, which I love the most. As he is a thick fur cat, he likes to be in the air conditioned room. The room where we practice is freaking hot but that evening he hang around us. I suspect he feels the silent euphoria, a strong positive energy in the heat. Several times he almost got kicked or stomped on. He was not watching, he kept walking around us when we swagged the jack out of us.
Sunday last week before the class in Interlude Dance Academy, we practiced hard. again
There were her cousins. They are always too lazy to join Icha dancing but that Sunday I guess they were burned when they watched us hahahaha, so they jumped to the small space, and we repeated the moves from the beginning all over again. We had fun and the next day we all got hard thighs of the fast down-up move.
On Sunday night, you know, I slept with fever. Hahaha exhausted, it seemed. Monday morning, I rested and took care of myself the best way I could do. In the evening, felt better, and straight heading to Icha's house to practice again, baby! We're addicted, as it seems!
