Hurray for Hip Hop Saturdays!

Last night, I joined another session of Project Kool-Lab, a hip hop class at the Metro Lifestyle Fitness Center.  Scheduled every Saturday at 6:45 pm to 9:45pm, the dance class is organized by Groove Unlimited Dance Community under the mentoring of Bryan Grandeza.

So how come I signed up for a hip hop class? My friend Dulce informed me about the Kool-Lab Project and since I wanted to try out something new and the registration fee at Php80/session is  very affordable, I said yes. Plus, I desperately needed to change my lifestyle from super sedentary to not-so-sedentary.

During our first session, we danced to Jason Castro’s Let’s Fall Just Fall In Love Again. I loved the song and the choreography was fun, fresh, and exciting.  Of course, I made a LOT of mistakes (with a video to prove it!) but the session was super fun so before we left the studio that night, it was decided that we will attend the next session and thought of bringing new recruits with us.

And we did.

For last night’s hip hop class, Dulce and I brought Chattee, Ria, and Miah. We danced to a Janet Jackson song and since it’s very upbeat, we couldn’t quite master the routine. Still, we had a great time, broke out a sweat, and hopefully burned more than 100 calories.

This Saturday, February 13, will be the last session of Project Kool-Lab.  Groove Unlimited Dance Community, however, will be conducting dance classes this summer.

P.S.

A blogger pal, Andrew,  took videos of me and my friends while we were dancing last night.  I’d want to share it here but it is way too hilarious and revealing for public consumption.
