#HappyBirthday greetings going out to @thisarod Anthony was the Director for #ShockArmy at Culture Shock Dance Center before the C19 era. He’s now teaching #dance at another dance studio. Make sure you check out @dandadance for more information. I highly recommend you take a dance class with him if you ever get the chance. He always makes it super #fun Being part of Shock Army reminded me of my love for dance. I hope I can take more of his classes (unfortunately my schedule doesn’t allow it right now but I’m on the lookout for popup classes). https://www.instagram.com/p/Cduo_SPLRGs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Grateful for my fellow #ShockArmy alumni for encouraging me to come out to the #AftaShock pre-audition workshop two weeks ago & to try out last week after not dancing for 2 years. I did a call back on Friday before we were dismissed, meaning I had to do the #dance a 3rd time & the judging panel recorded it. The dream is still alive as I got an email this week asking me to come back this Friday for another #callback I hope I have the energy, skills, and personality to kill the #audition 🙏🤞 It was nice to see familiar faces these last 2 Fridays and I’m curious who I’ll see this Friday. Wish me luck!

As usual I had no idea what to wear to #dance tonight. I almost went w/ #hotpink & #limegreen JK. Here’s a throwback to when @darren.oei were twinning back in the #ShockArmy days. Wish me luck in #AftaShock #auditions tonight 🙏🤞 💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺 #teamfatass #loseanolsentwin #fatdancer #CultureShockDanceCenter #dancing #performing #cardio #hiphop #progressnotperfection #dancetroupe #dancerforlife #performer #dance #sore #everythinghurts #ibuprofenforbreakfast 💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺💃🏻🕺 (at Culture Shock San Diego) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZBNuQ_rOqC/?utm_medium=tumblr

No #ShockArmy practice tonight so I decided to start one of my long overdue #crochet projects. It’s a secret for now. Maybe in the future I’ll share what it is. I just don’t have it in me to go back to Baby Yoda just yet knowing I likely have to unravel his head and start all over again. #crocheting #bernat #bernatyarn #bernatblanketbrights #schoolbusyellow #crocheters #crochetersofinstagram #crochetersofinsta #crochetersofig #friday #weekend https://www.instagram.com/p/B9s1pJ4HOMk/?igshid=q6j72ujdmfxh

I couldn’t in good conscience wear my 🇳🇴 fancy pants to #ShockArmy rehearsals on Friday knowing my history of wardrobe challenges (*cough pants falling down because I have no butt to hold them up cough*) and the type of moves we tend to do while dancing. I’ve worn the pants to #curling in the past as originally intended by #TeamUlsrud 😂 So I wore my #Norway #jersey instead and took a pic w/ Tessa who is the only one I know in San Diego who’s partly #Norwegian (she’s 1/4) 😂 Still bummed I didn’t get to meet @team.minera.skifer and cheer them on in person over Valentine’s weekend, but hopefully there’ll be other events in the near future. Maybe they’ll get invited to the #ContCup2021 which might be coming back to Vegas? 😉🙏🤞 Note to self: I need to get a 🇳🇴 scarf & flag to go w/ my pants, jersey, and beanie. . 📷 Josh Brock . . #hiphop #dancer #danceteam #dancetroupe #ibuprofenforbreakfast #dancerforlife #nofilter #HeiaNorge (at Culture Shock Dance Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8uVx-zHhAN/?igshid=19qrp2u8jh8ga

Grateful to have survived Friday’s #ShockArmy #auditions I definitely had this weird middle core soreness afterward, which got worse during the weekend. The abs under all my fat were awoken & screaming in pain 😂 #whodat Glad I still get to #dance despite the up and down in weight and injuries. I need to get better at doing the PT exercises at home more religiously in general, but hopefully the squat challenge I’m doing now will help me get stronger and a better #dancer overall. #danceratanyage #danceforallages #hiphop #dancetroupe #ibuprofenforbreakfast #flexerilismyfriend #meloxicamismyjam #voltarengelismybff #Repost @shockarmycsdc ・・・ Thank you to everyone who came out to our Shock Army 2020 auditions this past Friday!

Thank you @thisarod @darren.oei & @sylagan3 for holding an awesome pre-audition workshop last night. I had fun getting my butt kicked into #dance mode again. I’m so excited for Friday’s audition. I was happy to see some of the #ShockArmy members from last year back. I can’t wait to see more peeps next week. Hope we all make it back 🙏🤞 I have to say, I was proud of myself for being able to push out of my usual introverted self. I couldn’t get away from my usual second row left close to the wall place on the dance floor, but I did introduce myself to 3 new people who halfway through made me go to the first row so they could follow me, and I did dance in the front during some of the small group performances. The mental blocks and struggles w/ confidence are still there, but I’m trying to work on getting better. Woke up hella sore this morning, but rather than sleeping in and spending the day in bed reading, I was up early and running around town doing errands for my mom. WITHOUT COFFEE! I had homemade medicine ball instead but somehow I survived. #ibuprofenforbreakfast #danceratanyage #dancerforlife #progressnotperfection #sandiego #Repost @shockarmycsdc ・・・ Thank you to everyone that came out to our Pre-Audition workshop last night!
