Hip Hop Hustle 22!

[Guest guest]

My friend Maylorie came over and the plan was to do Turbo Kick Round 50, however, it was readily apparent that it was too much for her, she hasn't done enough kickoxing and TK *is* advanced if you're doing it straight off the dvd.

Chalene always says if you can do the hustle, you can Hip Hop Hustle!   So I put in the new routine and it was TONS OF FUN!   I was also covered in sweat at the end!  This release doesn't have " the show " section where you have a dance off in class.  HHH 22 has a warm up, 3 blocks of dances, and at the end for fun you string all three of 'em together.  My only critique is that there's not much of a cooldown so I led those myself, the usual supine yoga stretches with a strap, leg up, then out to the side, then over the body to get the hip (ow) and hugging both knees to the chest for 2 minutes to help the ole lower back.

Hustle block one was taught by Angie, block 2 by Allie, and block 3 by Meredith. All three of them cued very well!  It's so funny the things you think might be tricky are easy, yet I had to rewind and redo the stupid first move in block 3 twice, the step across, step out to the side.  I was laughing at how silly hard it was for me to catch on, the complexity is that of a grapevine.  I am grateful that after 10+ years of taking GX classes I can finally do a box step without thinking about it.  That one has tripped me up I don't know how many times.

We did this workout to the dvd, but the cd that comes with it has great music too, and the one I can't stop listening to is Brown's " Turn Up the Music "

Anyway, Maylorie and I will do HHH 22 again soon so that we can both get better at it.  I LOVE DANCE WORKOUTS.  So expressive, and fun to do with anyone!
