Impromptu Dance Number

   Dec 25, 2011, there was a Filipino Christmas party here in Norfolk, VA and my sister was included in the program.  She didn't know about it until we got to the place and was told she will be dancing as part of the evening's activity.  Good thing she already have a song and dance in mind.  Who would think that this performance was just on top of her head and wasn't practiced at all??  

   

   Yeah, I am a proud ate and I'm biased ;)  She's the talented one in the family and here's a proof :)  Love you Pyong!! *mwah*

my lil sissy's Boom Boom Pow cover

I'm just a big sister proud of my lil sis' dancing talent... she did BEP's Boom Boom Pow cover and I think she did a real good job.  Especially after the fact that she hasn't had any dance training and that she just copy her dance steps from youtube :)  

Once she recovers from her medical procedure and when she finds a good priced (meaning something I can afford) dance class, I'm thinking of sponsoring her lessons.  That way she can get professional advice on dancing.

Here's her vid... I wish I'm as a good dancer as her ;)

what a great dancer!

My sister, Aryza (but I fondly call her Pyong), is the youngest in the family and she has always been a great dancer.  I think she's been dancing as young as the age of three.  I remember during family occasions like reunions or birthdays, she can be easily goaded to dance in front of everyone, even if she's dancing alone.  Nobody taught her how to dance, I guess the TV did all the teaching for her, and she's one of the lucky ones blessed with this talent.  I didn't realize that she was able to nurture this talent until she started posting videos of her dances.  My jaw literally dropped when I first saw her video... she dances like a pro!! And what amazes me is she never had an official dance lesson in her life!! I asked her once where she learned the steps, she said that she just watches youtube and study the dances! WOW!! 

I'm jealous... I wish I have a talent like this... it would be nice to be able shake my booteeey without looking like a duck! LOL!!! 

Anyways, now she's part of her school's dance club, which will even enable her to learn more about dancing.  But I kept telling her not to do too much physical stress given her heart condition... She had a congenital heart disease (a hole in the heart) and this was operated on when she was 3.  It's ok now except when she gets intermittent quickened heartbeats.  She was in the hospital 3 weeks back because of this where they had to perform cardioversion (according to google, it's a brief procedure where an electrical shock is delivered to the heart to convert an abnormal heart rhythm back to a normal rhythm).  According to the doctor she can go back to her normal activities, but I still kept telling her to be careful and not over exert and not to downplay anything she might be feeling.

Ok, so here's a dance she did for me... I was asking her to dance the Church song from Step Up 2 but she was having a hard time to find videos she can copy the steps from.  So here's what she did instead.... Dang!! I really do wish I'm as graceful and as skinny as she is!
