NOTE: DO YOU WANT TO GET SILLYFIED?!

CHECK OUT OUR NEW SHORT FILM “The Last Slice”

It has a dance battle and everything!!!
CHECK IT OUT NOW! NOOOOOOOOOOWWWW!
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
YouTube got hassled by Timbaland and his corporate homeboys and made us take the “Way I Are” song off of this video. Now you can see the kids dancing to some free tune YouTube let us use. Can anybody say “That’s WACK!!!” Yeah, it IS wack. But currently Timbo has bigger lawyers so we gotta do what we gotta do.

In the meantime, let us just say that if any of y’all want to use the choreography from any of the videos we’ve posted so far, feel free to bust it out and let your people know you found it at FUNKMODE. We all about makin paper, but we don’t get greedy with our sh*t!

Remember, this can happen to ANY of you too. Vote with your dollars and support the artists that don’t try to screw the people who love their music the most. Find artists that actually want you to enjoy their tracks.

Peace – FUNKMODE

Meet Marty Kudelka

“In only a short time since his move to Los Angeles , Marty has earned the respect and admiration of the dance community. By working with top artists such as Janet Jackson, N’SYNC, Pink, Jennifer Lopez, O-Town, Christina Milian, Justin Timberlake, Mandy Moore & Donnell Jones. Marty has also quickly become one of the most sought-after choreographers working today.

Born in Dallas , Texas , Marty began breaking at the age of eight. By the age of sixteen, Marty began freestyling with his friends and they
would sneak into clubs for an opportunity to freestyle as well as watch. Participation in talent shows soon followed and it was at this point that Marty first realized he had the gift of dance.Choreographing routines and teaching them to his friends progressed into teaching at nearby studios. By the age of 20, Marty opened up his own studio. He eventually transitioned into teaching at the most prestigious dance studio in Dallas where, during his four years. There, he was able to tune his craft and become one of the most popular teachers in Dallas.

In June of 1999, Marty came to Los Angeles with $1,200 in his pocket and plans to only stay for two months. Needless to say, he hasn’t left. Marty spent the next year-and-a-half as a co-choreographer on Janet Jackson’s “All For You” World Tour, which is aired as an HBO special. Marty then moved on to choreograph Pink’s “Get The Party Started” music video and N’SYNC’s “Girlfriend” music video. Most recently, Marty directed and choreographed N’SYNC’s “Celebrity 2002 Tour” as well as their performance at the 2002 Grammy Awards.

Marty took a brief break from music videos to choreograph the Disney feature film, “The Lizzie McGuire Movie,” which starred Hilary Duff. Marty recently served as artistic director and choreographer for Justin Timberlake’s “Justified” World Tour.He isted Justin in launching his solo career by choreographing all of his new music videos, including “Like I Love You,” “Cry Me A River,” “Rock Your Body,” and “Senorita.” Marty also staged a show-stopping live performance at last year’s MTV Video Music Awards. Aside from choreographing, Marty also enjoys sharing his knowledge and inspiring future generations of dancers by teaching at studios and conventions throughout the country. Marty’s commanding emergence in the dance world demonstrates that true talent is always in high demand.” So it is with great pleasure that the Boogiezone Community Class Committee invite you to take class this week.

We just want to thank Marty in advance for serving as an inspiration to us all!

See you in class,
The Community Class Committee

MEET ALEXIS AVILA
Alexis Avila started dancing when she was 16 years old at Artesia High School. As a child, Alexis was involved in Beauty Pagents and acting classes, but never took a dance class till after high school. She danced for Team Millennia for 4 years and began to craft leadership experience as the Captain of TM Juniors, thriving as their leader for 2 years. Alexis eventually explored other groups over time, performing with Breed, EVE: A Dawn of A new horizon, and Boxcuttuhz. She has also made the jump from Captain to Director, creating her own team called Sheroes, a group of strong-minded women whose focus is centered not only on dance, but also on service. Alexis eventually returned to the Team Millennia family, competing alongside her teammates (affectionately known as the “TM7”), for both Seasons 2 and 3 of MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew. Alexis continues to hone her craft together with her fellow teammates, and enjoys teaching all she’s learned to other dancers.
