Co Flo’s Track of the Week: HOT 4 U – Jeremy Sylvester presents Socafrica This is one of those tracks that bring the level of energy up in the club! This track can single handedly change the whole rhythm of the cypher from smooth to raw as F#CK! For real the tom-toms alone put more rawness into this than some tracks can do with an entire arrangement. Another observation about this song is that it breaks like its a break beat. It has that...

Just had a phenomenal workshop with big teach  Brian “footwork” Green. House dance workshop and freestyle workshop with some great lessons in accents and picking apart the music 5 hours of damn I suck lol. I always have a very difficult time in his house class and never get any of the chreo but gain so much from fumbling around! Personally I’m a slow learner so I need time to sleep on things and think them over before I can attain...

Another fantastic musicality piece by Shan S. – fantastic, inspirational, super smooth. Its really good to see some of that New York style footwork smoothed out to a funk beat. It as if almost another style can be created to funk with some of the base foundational movements of New York house dance. dopeness..

Brooklyn Terry showing his experience and ability again… The reason why I wanted to put this video on blast is specifically because Terry is a performer that pushes musicality to the edge. Terry consistently picks unique tracks in which he paints a visual picture that the song and its producer(s) probably never thought would display. Dance is done to music, I know that is a general statement – but – how many times does someone...
