Generation Next 2013; Pump It Up October Fest Year 2



I was trying to imagine, if I can come up with an event similar to those reality shows, such as; Protege & The Voice Of The Philippines. I was thinking, it's going to be too risky and too hard for us to make it possible since it requires a lot of effort and everything a reality show must have.

 Until.... taaaaadaaaaaaah!!!!!


I was able to make it happen! It was really hard but it was fun! And It won't be possible without the help of my FZ friends. It's a Year 2 of our very first Pump It Up event - Pump It Up October Fest 2012, with a twist!

 It was actually a closed-group event and we invited FZerians to have at least one buddy to become his/her student/apprentice. It's a mentor-student relationship. The mentor will bring out the best in their students in terms of dancing Pump It Up (PIU).

Just like in any PIU Tournaments, the pads should be checked for maintenance to prevent future technical problems.



 Thank you so much Sir Ricky, our friendly-technician for almost 5 years at Sta. Lucia Branch! (You should be promoted Sir!)

 Generation Next 2013 is a Three-week duration event wherein all teams are going to make the most of the weeks given to practice and train their students. 

 Check out our training for the past three weeks...

 First week:


 

Second Week: 

Third Week:


Here's the complete list of teams:
1. Team Angeline/Khaye
2. Team Jeselle/Miccaely
3. Team Jepii/Chris
4. Team Lester/Daniah
5. Team Lidy/John Paul
6. Team Mitch/Jimmy
7. Team Nel/Rose
8. Team Rafael/Shai
9. Team Zedd/Lem
 10. And of course, me as Mentor of my chosen student - Holy :)

The purpose of the event was very successful. We were able to built camaraderie most especially to those new students who weren't familiar to us. I myself, was able to learn new things with Holy and at the same time, I was able to know her better! She's a fast learner, both Pump It Up & academics. I love how she dedicates herself to time management. We barely practice, like 2-3 times in a week, with just at least 2-3 hours of play. Our usual whole day free time is every Sunday. So we usually go to the nearest amusement center wherein we can practice with just the two of us. 

This was us during the event proper. We had mini games such as charades instead of intermission numbers. Mentors were allowed to coach (just like in the boxing arena) to give support to their students. And this, was the BEST ONE I got! It was very difficult for us to learn everything in just a small span of time. But I saw how eager my student, Holy, was. She did a very good job. Even though we lost the battle, it was still, the part where we fought for our team, was unbelievable & very sentimental.
