Heyy loves! Yesterday, I had the opportunity to go to a
Beginner Heels class. A heels class is where you dance and learn chorography in
stilettos. Well, mine weren’t exactly stilettos, because I’m not the best in
heels, but I had some chunky ones on. I went with my friend Jameela, to the
Playground LA, located on Melrsose, in sunny Los Angeles.

Our instructor was the lovely Alexis Beauregard @
beaulexx.
You may know her from Instagram or many top chorographers YouTube channels. Her
resume is filled and booked. Now this wasn’t the first heels class that I’ve
gone to, but I really enjoyed her style of teaching. I think since it was a beginner’s
class, she was able to watch all of the dancers and she made an effort to critique
and advise as much as she could. The class began with a dance warmup, which I
missed because I’m ALWAYS late. Immediately after she had us practicing our
walking. There were about six styles she taught us, majority were on the
seductive side. She explained the importance of being comfortable with a more sensual
walk. It takes more effort and grace then a Beyonc
é walk LOL. After the walking,
we hopped into choreography. We danced to
Smartwater
by Lyrica Anderson. The song has a very sexy soulful vibe. Which was refreshing
and surprisingly comfortable, being that I can be a bit awkward at times. I
must admit my wig almost fell off a few times, with all the hair flipping. Next
time, I’ll make sure I’m extra secured LOL.

I couldn’t get to record the choreography, but her next
class I attend, I’ll insert the dance we learn that day to this blog.
We ended our afternoon with some yummy Blu Jam Café.
It is two stores down from Playground LA. We went in there from something sweet
but ended up having a savory lunch. I really wanted the Chilaquiles, but
unfortunately they couldn’t make it, vegetarian style, without chicken. I ended
up getting Rancheros which was to die for and my friend enjoyed the vegetarian Breakfast
Quesadilla. Since we were being little piglets we decided to get a side half
order of the Churro French Toast. That was my least favorite out of what we
ordered. I didn’t try Jameela’s, but she seemed to enjoy hers as well.
Thanks for reading xoxo.
