Go For It!

We are sorry for the break in posts recently. We have been working on some exciting new ventures.

While doing some research for our new ventures we came across this trailer of a new dance flick coming to cinemas soon.

The movie is "Go For it" and is revolved around a 19-year-old girl called Carmen (Aimee Garcia) who is a Mexican-American college student who loves hip-hop dancing and practices her moves in Chicago's underground dance clubs. Carmen's ultimate dream is to become professional dancer and with the help of a supportive teacher (Al Bandiero) encourages her to apply to a California dance academy.

check out the 2 minute trailer below.

Shared Frequencies is one of the performances coming up and will be showing at:
Sydney Theatre
Hickson Road, Walsh Bay
29 March – 16 April 2011

Don't miss out!

Dance Assassin

We loved this 1 minute 30 video of the break dancing artist known as the "Dance Assassin". He busts the moves as a garden hedge and even disguises himself as a pile of garbage.
The Dance Assassin does scare some innocent passing Byers, but he is definitely a talented and creative artist.
We would like the Dance Assassin can show us some more of his dance works.

Tap dancing Beyonce

We love this tap dancing twist on Beyonces hit "Single Ladies".
SYTYCD U.S.A contestant Melinda Sullivan features in this 3 minute viral video mixing old school tap techniques with a contemporary song giving tap a whole new, fresh feel.

Runaway Ballerinas

We love Kanye West and his musical talent but we are really loving his music video "Runaway"
featuring a cast of ballerinas from different ballet companies all over Czech Republic dressed in black tutu's.
The clip does give off a similar vibe to the recent movie release Black Swan.
This 8 minute video is only part of the 34 minute short film version that is directed and written by West.

Enjoy!

Live to Dance-Behind the Scenes

Also the highly sought after recording artist and dancer Paula Abdul and an extensive panel of dance industry experts (Travis Payne and Kimberly Wyatt) will follow talented dancers from across the country to audition for this new series. The dancers audition in specially constructed Dance Domes that were built in both New York and Los Angeles.
