December 10 Challenge: Vixen Hop

Class 5 of 10:  I ventured over to Evolve Dance Studio with dear friend Evie Lovelle on Saturday for another dose of Vixen Hop (sexy hip hop).  (I suggest you find a friend who is up for accepting challenges with you.  I took an aerobic Bollywood class and yoga with Evie, she's taken Fosse and this class with me.)  We were the white girls in class, and it was quite evident in the "dance fight" the teacher had us do with the choreography we learned in class.  To put it politely, we got served.

This class is fun and gets the body warm and sweaty, but it's not a technique class like the ones I usually take.  A number of the moves don't have names, and the warm up is high impact.  I suggest you warm up your neck and shoulders slowly before class starts so you don't cramp anything like I did.  Wear tennis shoes and prepare to sweat if you take this class.  I'll probably take the class again since it is a fun workout, and so Evie and I can work on our electric boogaloo.
