23-24-25 September Judging @ Battle of the South in Kristiansand Norway
This weekend i was a judge in Norway, and i gave one of my best workshops ever. At the end of the event the winner of the 1on1 battle called me out for a battle, he said he was big fan of me. That was such a nice feeling ! I had a super weekend and can't wait to go back to Norway !
Battle of the Year Benelux 2011 results
This was a really long day. It started off with my students The Block Rockers. And what an amazing showcase they did on that stage ! For me as a choreographer/coach for the first time it was amazing to see them shine on stage. Eventually they did not make it to the top 4 cause of the high level this year, but i see a nice future for them.
Next up was the Team Showcase. We only had 7 practices for this one, but with some parts we blew people away. We won the price for Best Showcase and went to the top 4. Too bad we didn't make it to the finals in Montpellier, cause we lost in the Finlas against Hoochen crew. Strange battle, and we were all really disappointed. But people can have their moment, cause it will be even harder to beat us next time.
check out the showcases in the media section !!
9/10/11 of September All Battles All @ The Notorius IBE 2011
IBE also known as the most popular breaking event of the world will take place in Heerlen once again at 9/10/11th of September.
This year i have the honour to represent the whole continent of EUROPE !!! It is a great honour to be part of this team. My first big event i ever went to was IBE 2003, and when i saw All BAttles All i was shocked. From then on it was my dream to be in the ABA team. Now the moment is finally here it feels kinda normal, but when i look back at old footage of 2003 it makes me proud.
Preparing like hell now, wish me good luck ! for more information visit: www.thenotoriusibe.com
