From getting booed twice at Prelude DMV back in 2012, to winning the All-Styles Battle at Prelude Philly 2014, I would have never imagined standing on this stage as the Executive Director for Prelude Philadelphia 2016. Take me back to this day and I will do it all over again. Many thanks to all of you for making this event possible #preludephiladelphia2016 📷: @jonathan.gene photography
Still on a high
I battled against Smart Mark last Second Sundae and I think I held it down for myself
Every second Sunday of the month, dancers from all over Philly gather around in Silk City to have battles and vibe out. This is one of my favorite things about Philly, the rawness in every dancers I encounter. I had the pleasure of battling Smart Mark (Academy of Phresh) and had the time of my life.
This gave me goosebumps holy shit
i reblogged this as soon as i pressed play now i am gonna finish it
“The poetic notion of dance being intangible, fleeting or ephemeral is esoteric jargon aimed at the audience to evoke a sense of urgency to watch a dancer perform. As dancers ourselves, it is important that we do not subscribe to or adhere to this magniloquent rhetoric. Dance is far from fleeting. It resonates in our breath, our bones, our brain, our bowels. Every movement, thrust, leap, spin, sequence, vignette or repertory piece lays within our DNA as a constant reminder of the beauty our body created and lent itself to. Dance is not fleeting. It is ever present and ready for us to pass on to a new generation of dancers.” Safi A.

Um okay, so if you don’t know Zamounda Crew, y’all are about to find out. First and foremost, this collective is comprised of beautiful women of color who have perfected, if not, masters of their crafts in Hip Hop with a remarkable curriculum vitae–with accomplishments ranging from European champions to claiming international titles. These women are true inspirations
A phenomenal group of women
Confession: Being an Asian woman of short stature.
Before I go on a rant, I would like to give you some background and some context as to why I’m ranting. To begin, I am a dancer here in Philadelphia. Now, like any dance community in every city, there are of different categories--i.e. the underground/battle scene, the choreo scene, the breakers, etc. And I have chosen not to stay in a certain scene in the dance community. I love my choreo-based dance company and they’re my fam but I also like to battle. Now, if you don’t know me, I am an Asian woman of short stature. I’m Filipino standing 5 feet tall. Although that makes me hella cute, it can come with some certain disadvantages including people not taking seriously. As if being a woman is not already a challenge in being in a very male-dominated scene, being short isn’t any help. As a woman in the dance scene, you have to be twice as good and have to work twice as hard. People have preconceived notions about you and what you are capable of doing. So most often, at first impression, I’m not taken seriously. I constantly have to prove myself which, honestly, gets really tiring and really old real quick. Which brings me to the topic of why I’m ranting in the first place. So, here in Philly, every second Sunday of the month, there is a jam held in Silk city called “Second Sundae.” It’s where Philly dancers gather and just vibe and battle and whatnot. So the past Sundae, I had signed up to battle. Mind you, I am the only girl that battled that whole night. I had battled this guy and I won against him. It was a good battle, made it to top 8, battled a good friend of mine, he won, but it’s all good. We had a lot of fun. Fast forward to today (July 26, 2015) when my best friend told me what the guy I battled had said about me. So, the Philly dance scene is very small and everybody knows everybody. So my best friend told me that the guy I battled, let’s call him “Spade”, had approached him and my other friend (and teammate) and vented to him how he got cheated by an “Asian bitch”--Asian bitch being me--when he should’ve won the battle. He said that he felt cheated because they only played “girly” songs.
Long story short, he was salty as fuck because I schooled his misogynistic ass on the dance floor.
P.S. - If you wanna watch the footage of the battle, click the link below:

Took Bam Martin’s class last night and my best friend and I had the honor to dance with him. This was one of the dopest class EVER!
repost from Shaun’s instagram
I just got back from taking Shaun Evaristo’s class in EXPG in New York and it was nothing short of enlightening. He was the dancer I looked up to when I had just started dancing. I just admired his approach on dance. I had always dreamed of being in the same space and learn from him. Today, that dream became a reality. I did not just learn from him but he made me experience dance I have never experienced before. And what was even more amazing was that he saw me and Shanel how we are as dancers—our strength and weaknesses—and was able to give us advice on becoming better for ourselves. For a person to be able to know you after one class is talent—that’s a gift. He is the epitome of a TEACHER and I will forever cherish that class. I love dance
Guys, this happened! STILL ON A HIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bought my ticket.
I’m ready for this
After years of dreaming of taking a class, I finally get the chance to be in the same studio with Shaun.
Also, I started a new personal blog. It’s more dance oriented than my other personal blog. Follow my new jawn onvadanser (I follow back)

Sometimes when you have no words on how much you love your squad, you just have to dance about it.
Just something fun. Choreographed by yours truly

Missy Elliott Tribute
i am screaming!! yall need to see this!!
Childhood me is cuh-rying!!!! And Alyson Stoner is so fine! OMG!!!
My life is complete
I'm pretty sure all of us have seen this masterpiece. It was brilliant and beautiful to watch. The movements were captivating, every picture and every breath, they well all breath taking. However, once Vibe posted the Front View of this piece, I was completely in a weeping fit. I cried throughout the whole thing. To be able to put faces into the dance was the cherry on top. These dancers committed every bit of their being into this piece. I'll stop rambling and let you guys watch it.
