Dancers Thrive in Chaos!

Big hello to all my fellow "Gotta Dance"rs :-)
This has been a crazy week! I found out that I will be flying to Shanghai in 9 days to teach, choreograph, and judge for a reality show - they are looking to put together the first ever NBA dance team in China! So far I have ZERO info. I dont know what type of dance I need to teach, or what music they want me to choreograph to. I also don't know the level of the dancers, so I have to be prepared for anything! Good thing being a Netsational coach has taught me lots and lots of patience.....ha!

While I'm trying to prepare for my international adventure, I'm also working on some choreography for the Nets adult dance clinic that I'll be teaching tomorrow afternoon. We've decided on the song "I know you want me" by Pitbull and I'm trying to come up with some new moves - I always like to challenge the Netsationals, but also keep the difficulty in check for the new dancers who are joining us for the first time (including those who have never done hip hop before). If you've never participated in a Nets dance clinic, you should definitely try it! We always have lots of fun....just ask the Netsationals. We also have clinics for kids, and dancers who are interested in eventually auditioning for the Nets Dancers.

For those of you who are familiar with the Nets website, http://www.njnets.com , you may also be aware that I have my own webshow called 'Jac of all Nets', and tomorrow I'll be filming an episode at Dunkin Donuts in East Rutherford, NJ with Devis Harris. I'll have about 45 minutes in between filming and teaching....ahhh the life of a dancer! Stay tuned for updates on the clinic and also on Shanghai - never a dull moment!
