Video of the Week: Justin "Jet Li" Valles shoutout to Split Second Crew!

Justin "Jet Li" Valles had a dance workshop at All Star Dance School at Las Pinas. I wasn't able to attend his workshop but one of our crew member Edward Rustria who is also part of the Perpetual Street Dance had the opportunity to take his class.

 

When Edward told him that we performed in their dressing room when they had their mall tour at SM MOA, he remembered us! I mean, who woudn't? 2 guys doing stunts with little space given (check the last video), copying their moves and incorporating it in our routine? Nah, I'm just kidding! But, I'm glad they appreciate our work back then.

Poreotics is America's Best Dance Crew Season 5 winners. They are one of our favorite dance crews so when we learned that they are going to have series of mall shows and had a dance video competition to be their opening act, we grabbed the chance.



We didn't win the competition but there were good people who helped us (Tic Tic Pinas) and gave us the opportunity to meet, greet and perform for our idols.

It was May 8, 2011, we waited. The venue changed because it was raining. From the Music Atrium to the mall's lobby. It was like a convention of dancers! Then it was time to meet ABDC Season 5 Champs! We prepared a routine and presented it inside their dressing room. Yup, dressing room! We just had little space but we didn't mind, we didn't care if we didn't win but it was one of our groups best experience.

 


May 8 is a date we can never forget. I've seen Jabbawockeez perform (Btw, they'll be back w/ Super Crew here in the Philippines), some of my crewmates saw I.aM.mE, Quest Crew, but we didn't just see Poreotics perform, we've met them and it was something to remember. :)

I'm sorry if I'm making a big deal out of it. But when you're there and you're a fan of Poreotics and dancing, you'll just get overwhelmed and to know what we've been through as a group just to be in that position.
