Rock The Stance by TDC

Back in college - Taylor's College to be precise, I never had the privilege like the current batch of students have to be involved in a dance club. Not that I'm talented nor cared much about joining extra curricular activities back in the days but hey, if you never try then you will never know, right? Right. 

Fast forward over 10 years and I found myself sitting in the new Lecture Theatre 1, which is modern looking and well equipped to hold performances such as Rock The Stance by the Taylor's Dance Club ("TDC"). From what I gather, TDC is not only a popular club organized by the students who are also talents themselves but the college has actually setup a dance room  proper for practices. How cool is that? But, I really feel cheated of my money for the college did not used to have all these cool clubs and facilities, not to mention the ultra modern Lecture Theatres...but that's another rant for another entry. 

The event was TDC's effort to showcase the 7 styles of dances, namely Poppin', Girl's Style, B-Boy, K-Pop, Hip-Hop, Contemporary and L.A. Style. They had videos of the choreographers giving a brief description of the style before the corresponding dance took place. My hats off to them as a high level of dedication and effort is required to perfect a dance with multiple dancers involved. 

Anyway, less words and let the photos do the talking now. Feel the energy and fluid motion in each of them.

Them Harley Ridin' Ladies pumpin' it up

 I can punch upwards, hiyakkk! And smile at the same time too!

Give it up for Hip Hop! Whattup!

Contemporary. Very Dramatic.

Totally my kinda thing

L.A. Style - described as a dance style that encompasses almost any or every other element of dance.

In short - ROJAK.

But hey, it looks cool.

And pretty awesome too.

Everyone can soak up the atmosphere

If I can say one thing after spectating the performance is this, I wish I had joined a dance club like TDC because as untalented as I can be, it would feel absolutely great to just be able to express your Emotions with Motions. 

Here's wishing TDC or any other dance club for that matter to greater heights! For you and I know, art form can never be contained and is limitless.
