A night in paradise

First and foremost, I'd like to apologise for my absence in the blogger world.

I blame.. myself and the lack of internet in my house and the fact I have been very busy during December. Which means I have some great posts (if I do say so myself) coming up.

Lets go back to the start of December.

There was a disco/house music event on at the Ministry of Sound nightclub called 'A night in Paradise'
The event was in conjunction with World Aids day and leading HIV charities: New York's Gay Men's Health Crisis and the UK's Terrence Higgins Trust, with all profits from the event being split equally between the two.

The event started at 4pm and we got there early so there was plenty of time for dancing.
I forgot to menton I went along with some vogue dancers who definitely got the party started.

I am in awe of their confidence when it comes to freestyle. At first I was nervous taking part with people watching but in the end I realised most of these people would have been drinking and probably wouldn't remember much anyway.

The music was amazing, reminded me of what Studio 54 could have been like in New York.

We left the club at around 11pm and headed straight to a venue for a new style battle.
Two of the dancers were judging the battle so we took the opportunity to go watch.
I really enjoyed watching dancers from all styles battle each other. It was interesting to see the use of musicality and dynamics.

I then went back to my friends house and we cooked pasta and chatted until the wee hours of the morning. It got to 5:30 am and decided to call it a night.

I then had to get up at 8:30 am for work. It was a hardcore day. It is safe to say that pro plus got me through that shift but I would not have changed going out for the world.
I have added a couple of photos that were taken by Tim Vasvi during the night. Enjoy.
