So Ive been working with Jason Lund from the Ruff Diamond Cru on hip hop pro development, with a special focus on body popping techniques.
Some of the techniques we will be working; Robotics, Toy Man, Boogaloo, Fresno, Tutting, Waving, twist of flex, master flex, romeo twist, egyotian twist, strobing, animation , Breaking- floor work, freezes, top rocking.
Today we worked on boogaloo above Jason demonstrates chest isolations important to get this correctly so the boogaloo works.
3rd August 2016 Today we were at studio Dance Jam in Sunderland. Ive put together a small movement phrase with some of my ideas and Jasons expertise, video below includes top rocking techniques.
So as part of my R and D I'm going to explore the world of GLOW in the Dark make up.. Ive worked with a body painter, a street artist and a photographer before and we developed some stunning images right here in Sunderland.
This time I get to work with an all female team make up artist Dominque laws and photographer Sharon Mclnerney https://www.facebook.com/sharonmcinerneyphotography/?fref=ts

The shoot was amazing see below!
So one of the first things I wanted to work on was the relationship between the dancer/s and the lighting on the cubed podiums I had created for Zodiac Light. The problem was they are extremely heavy and big! too big to fit through a standard door and too heavy to carry! umm! IN ACE bid Id been kindly offered space at Dance City and Arts Centre Washington i.e. they were meant to move.. so whats a girl going to do?!
Cubes dont fit into the car.
Gloving is an american based dance style. The glovers create light shows using fast paced finger and hand movements wearing specialist LED gloves.
Ive worked with the LED gloves in my last piece of choreo Zodiac Light the Gloves were bought in the Uk and were of poor quality. Ive connected with some Glovers in Amsterdam on social (currently have not found any UK glovers) who have pointed me to The Emazing lights website. The Glovers in Amsterdam said they would like to follow of progress of Glow.
