the MAIN EVENT
2008 marked a pretty pivotal year for the EC dance scene in the tri-state area. Local dancers that coined the BOOGIEBOTS made it to ABDC, Season 2. The birth of PRELUDE EC thanks to Tony Calub, TM, and FR3SH marked a monumental milestone bringing the east coast its biggest dance competition to rival that of Culture Shock’s D.C.’s East Coast Dance Competition and to spur the largest upbringing of dance talent. Styles to Finesse United Crew debuted and showcased their non-conformist style to prelude that of their competition team, SERCis Co. a.k.a. SiC. Other new teams such as DynamiQ Faction, E.P.I.C Motion, SOUL’D, and H!tz started coming out into the limelight. Phunk Phenomenon blew the masses away taking first place at PRELUDE EC 2008. FR3SH Dance Co. becomes the first NJ team to perform at FUNKANOMETRY SF’s first ever annual SOCKHOP showcase in San Fransisco, California.
During the summer, ABDC’s season one winners, the Jabbawockeez, held a showcase at Saint Peter’s College that brought together our most local dance teams for all of the tri-state area to see. Steven Armendi and Jeff Laconico of Project D Dance Company became the first of our local dancers to teach a BOOGIEZONE Class out in CALIFORNIA! The birth of SYNERGY and the expansion of BOOGIEZONE NJ further propelled our scene towards uniting our community and attracting west coast dancers such as Serena Yang of 909/BREED/SHEroes/GRV; Kaba Modern’s ABDC team; Ellen Kim, Mariel Martin, Rocko Luciano, Kyle Hanagami, and Julio Morales of FUNKANOMETRY SF; Jun Quemado, Jed Florano, Rambo Ramos and Toybox of Team Millennia; Jay De Jesus and Ellis Barba of MECCAMEE LV; and Gigi Torres, April Rodriguez, and Candace Brown of ESSENCE; and more West Coast Dancers are slated to come to our coast as well!
In addition, Rhythmology starts their season off right by taking first place at NJIT’s REIGN or SHINE to kick off the fall 2008-spring 2009 season, while Project D Dance Company wins their first ever first place trophy at the FIRST EVER Pride Dance Competition. In fact, both teams have even made it to the WEST COAST, each performing for the SoCal and NorCal editions, respectively, for TM’s Prelude Series. So with SUCH a rise in our growing dance community, what is there to look forward in the year of 2009? There is a couple, PRELUDE EC 2009 for one, but this FEBRUARY, be on the lookout for FR3SH Dance Company’s first ever annual dance competition, the MAIN EVENT.
Yes, I know norcal has nothing to do with the EC, BUT the EC is representing NJ up in the BAY AREA this SATURDAY… with PROJECT D!
Phunk Phenomenon was one of the first teams to make it to the West Coast thanks to Hip Hop International. Studio ONE from FLORIDA soon followed suit by being the first EC team to invade UCSD’s Fusion in 2007 and 2008. FR3SH Dance Company of NJ further set the bar by giving their performance of a lifetime at Funkanometry San Fransisco’s first ever SOCK HOP. Later in DECEMBER, Rhythmology will be taking their chance at Cali Fame at Prelude SoCal 2008. But for this NOVEMBER, Project D will be representing New Jersey up in the Bay bay bay bay bay at this year’s PRELUDE NORCAL at the San Mateo Performing Arts Center!
Stay tuned for more info, as PDSTYLE will be definitely giving you THE FEED at PRELUDE NORCAL 2008, pD”style!”
