this post is going to sound incoherent, but i think it should.

just because as i am typing this post, there are too many thoughts running through my mind, and there are too many things that i wanna say so much but no words are sufficient enough for me to express.

so here goes, my experience with a insanely talented and inspiring dancer.

a lot of people may think that i'm just another girl who fell into the "taeyang thing" that's why i went for the class but no, i have been watching Shaun Evaristo via bae (yes of course) and sh*tkingz. and after taking his class, i can only say he is amazing. no other words can describe him and this experience AT ALL.

he's a great teacher. not just a great dancer. i finally understood why so many people loved him. it's not cos of his slick moves or choreography, and it's definitely not just his friendly personality. it was him, the one who really makes the effort to teach you what he wants you to learn.

i have never really attended outside classes before, but i know how it feels like as most choreographers out there sometimes just like to throw steps at you and asking you to TRY and catch it. but the fact is, not everyone can. but with Shaun, even the hardest steps seem so reasonable to be attained. why?

he focuses on YOU.

it was not about steps, and not about feeling. it was a combination of both. every step has a story, every step has a reason. never had i met a choreographer who tells me this entire story with his dance just like it is happening in front of you. never had i felt so, involved in a dance. too many times i was told to feel, to understand, to catch, to hit etc but i never really went INTO the dance. but this time round, i THINK i did. obviously not as good as a lot of other people but this was the first time i felt withdrawal difficulties from a dance. it was like acting, when this other person just came into me and made me experience a story through my body.

amazing.

the class was supposed to be 1.5 hours but it felt really short. so short that i got such a huge urge to just fly to LA to attend his classes. shortly after the whole learning process there was a sweet Q&A session and then a solo.

it was a very personal piece to him, so no videography was allowed.

but with video or not, i cannot forget the emotions i felt while watching him. for the first time i teared watching someone else dance.

i hope that i can meet him once again.

just that one more time. (:

oh,

just 2 other entries about Shaun. (:
