Janelle's soul session hip hop dance workshop (7th Oct 2007)

Perth's own Janelle Vaccaro has returned from her new home in LA to bring us fresh, funky moves with a bit of soul. Her credits include being signed to DDO Artists Agency in Los Angeles and receiving a US artist visa; choreographing & dancing for Virgin Records USA singer/songwriter Che'Nelle; dancing for Rove McManus; internationally recognised and respected company Dance2XS; Supafly and Ministry of Sound from the UK; Aussie dance music duo TV Rock; Carnival Cruise Lines USA; Genting Resort in Malaysia; teaching Hip Hop all over Perth and being a principal teacher/choreographer for thestudio.com.au

The growing success of Perth dancer Janelle and singer Che'Nelle since their move to America has seen them appear on MTV, Video Hits and Rage for Che'Nelle's debut music video 'I Fell in Love with the DJ'. The video can be seen on both Janelle and Che'nelle's myspace pages and the song is available on itunes.

Che'nelle is also in the running for a massive MacDonalds ad campaign alongside artists such as Neyo, Sean Kingston and Kenna!

Che'nelle is currently touring in Australia for the release of her debut album"Things Happen for a Reason" and will be appearing at the studio.com on Oct 7th '07 for Janelle's Soul Sessions hip hop dance workshop. Unfortunately, I missed her by a few hours. Anyway, I was lucky to get on of her merchandise from Janelle.

Here is Janelle taking us for our stretching session before we tackle the hardcore choreography. I'm super rusty hey! Haven't been dancing for a while....except for attending Body Jam classes at the gym with Paolo.

Now it's time to switch on and crack my brains to learn Janelle's choreography. Hehehehehe.....:) Below are 2 videos: the first is Janelle performing her dance and the second one is me trying out her dance routine. However, please don't laugh..... it's not very good. (as I mentioned I'm really rusty)




I get to take another picture with the famous Janelle. That's Chenelle's merchandise Janelle gave to me since I'm going to miss meeting her. Thanx!!!!



It was a fun Sunday afternoon. I had my 2 hrs of cardio workout and polish up some of my dance moves. Hope Janelle is coming back to visit us when she's free. Take care Janelle!!!!
