Jimmy showed us some more advanced breakdancing moves this week. Some Grade 6 helpers joined us to do some partner work.
Here's the Electric Pyramid:
You can't see in in the pictures, but the Grade 6 helpers are actually slowly moving side to side or walking on their hands and knees.
This is the Tower, where the students use a helper to lean forward as far as they can go. It takes some trust and some core strength to get it right.
They got so strong, they even held up the helpers!
And finally, the Teeter Totter, which really should be seen in action. The pictures don't do it justice! It seems like magic when it's done well. The children levitate off the ground, using leverage and a fulcrum.
This week's class with Jimmy was fast paced, hands on and highly physical. It is a joy watching our students gain confidence and trust as they work with Jimmy. Can't wait to see what we do next week!
