"Last night, Jungle Boogie held their first ever NYC Workshop at Steps on Broadway. They began with a 'cranking' routine. I didn't participate, and it was a good thing too, b/c it was INTENSE. It was high energy and super fast. I also found it interesting that ALL of JB taught the workshop together (w/ the exception of Zebra, who sat out and watched). Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get video of the first routine. For the second half of the workshop, they taught a more smoother style called "Jigging" (i think). It was a fun, energetic routine and it looked like everyone was having a blast learning the steps. Dancer or not, I suggest taking a workshop with them - it's all about 'good times' and makes for a great cardio workout. In the end, they finished with a 'Jungle Boogie' cool down led by BeeJay. Afterwards, everyone hung around and took pictures with the crew. Raqui busts out some James Brown and a dance cypher breaks out! Unfortunately again, I didn't take video of the cyph because I was clapping along, enjoying it. I spoke with their manager and according to her, Jungle Boogie shirts (!!!!!) will be available on Threaderstyle next month. I said my 'goodbyes' and thanked them for coming to NY. Keep a lookout for Jungle Boogie on MTV's Silent Library in the weeks to come! YULLLE!!!!"
