Dancing in the Rain - Art in Motion

A friend suggested that I check out this video on YouTube of 4 guys in the hood dancing in the rain on a street corner. To be honest, I expected more of the same - some typical Bboy footage with guys showing off lots of tricks and moves.

I was wrong.

These young men are dancers. They have rhythm, grace, artistry, and style. Their movement is universal, with American, Asian, and Brazilian influences.

Even though the sun is shining in Miami, this almost makes me wish it was a rainy day...

Agape ft. Nadia Harris - New Music Video

There are some really great world fusion bands coming out of Miami right now - Suenalo, Spam Allstars, Locos Por Juana, and Xperimento to name a few.

One of my absolute favorites at the moment is Agape featuring Nadia Harris. They mix Latin, Reggae, Jazz, Funk, Soul - all into one amazing fresh sound.

We just featured a song off their new EP - "If Love" - on the GLOBAILE podcast.

I've been an awful blogger.
I claim that I will be posting Mon&Tues, yet almost nothing has come out of my own writing for weeks!
I do apologize; I've been caught up with a ton of things and I've FINALLY gotten one weekend to myself to do some well-deserved catching up and relaxing.

As one of my first posts on here, I'd like to share with you some dance photography that captures movement perfectly, without actually showing the dance. Fascinating work.

Also, the fashion for different types of dance? It has been incorporated into everyday wear.
For example:

Spanish. The ruffles are in now, as is the hairstyle, and the sexiness never left the building.


Ballet. Flats are never going away, and perfect posture with confidence is what makes any model a supermodel.


Also the whimsical, free flowing chiffon skirts, pastel tops...I just want to be a dancer.
