Recent #FBF to last week when I actually had enough courage to audition for #AftaShock Growing up in San Diego and being familiar w/ Culture Shock means it’s been a dream of mine to one day be good enough to make it to Afta Shock. When Afta Shock first went away and Shock Army started, I was too afraid to try out the first season and when I did gain enough courage to try out for season 2, I was out of shape and hella rusty. Inspired by Catriona Gray’s Miss Universe journey, I auditioned and made it to season 3. I made it for season 4 as well, but then the pand3mic started and Culture Shock itself shut down completely for some time. When Culture Shock came back, so did the troupes, including Afta Shock. I tried out in January and didn’t make it. I questioned whether or not I had it in me to try out again and if I was good enough to make it the second time around. I needed all the help I could get so I came armed (literally) with #bracelets that have historically proven themselves to be lucky for the owner of the matching sets and I held off until I could get a number that had an 8 in it because I was superstitious. #AftaShockSD #AftaShockSanDiego #teamfatass #loseanolsentwin #fatdancer #dancing #performing #cardio #hiphop #progressnotperfection #dancerforlife #performer #dance #sore #everythinghurts #ibuprofenforbreakfast #geriatricdancer #newnormal #concusseddancer #postconcussion #fridays #friyays #weekend #flashbackfriday https://www.instagram.com/p/CheIHEtOi9I/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
