But I think we're gonna be the...
Kucing Kurap (knock-off) Dolls
Hi guys
Hi!
How good do you think you are at dancing?
My experience is dancing in the club
Aiya quite rusty lah hor
I think I'm like average
Like you won't be like "oh, she's good"
If you're average then I'm what
Under the ocean
I think I'm like a 4.5 to 5?
Cause I've not danced for like 7 years
Oh wowwww
Did you own a pair of heels before this video?
The highest heel I wore for like events right, is like this
Huh?
Ewwwwwww
Kitten heels are gross
Actually the first pair of heels I owned
I had to buy them because I had to wear them for a performance
That is my, one day I discovered
"Wa, I'm very good at doing this"
Fauzi's talent, walking in heels
Yes! It is in fact in all over my bios
All the TSL bios
Wa I suck eh, I cannot walk in heels eh
So for today's episode we'll be dancing in heels!
Yayyyyyyy!
Who do you think will do the best?
Fauzi! Fauzi! Fauzi! Fauzi!
I think dance-wise, Alison
On her social media, she's always dancing somewhere
It's like every corner of the world, from Singapore,
She's like somewhere dancing
Hi! My name is Poca
I'm teaching here at Converge Studios
I do heels here
I teach street jazz here as well
The difference between dancing in heels and sneakers,
It takes a lot of your balance,
your control, and
how you actually maneuver your body
But it gives you more empowerment of a woman
First of all, most important,
I hope they can walk properly in heels
Woah
Y'all like dying like that
Other than that,
hopefully they can achieve that confidence
by putting on the heels, and dancing in it
So right now we're going to start
learning how to walk in those heels
and some regular body movements
Shake it out
*screams*
I'm sure you'll do fine
Alright, let's go
So, how is it so far
My calves have not felt this way in a very time long
Scaryyyy
Adria keep screaming
This girl ah, "Ah!" "Egh! "Ah!" "Egh!"
Cause like, every time every time I wanna do something right,
I'll feel like falling
Every time we go down, then I come up right,
then I "egh"
Ya, yes yes!
I didn't even know there was a technique to walking in heels eh
Like I was just like walk, walk, walk, walk
Like but a bit sexy ah
I'm feeling it ah, I'm feeling myself
No, then she makes it look very easy
Yessss
No, she looks super sexy
Yaaaaa
What about you all?
Uhhhh
No, when she play the music then yes ah
"Start when she singing" then we like
Then after the walk it's all another story
So later on, there'll be a routine ah
Huh? This is not the routine?
Oh, I thought that was the routine
No...
Never mind, I like challenges, let's go!
I have more pressure to prove the ladies
that I can do as good as them
I will just like fake it till' I make it
I think I'll just look like I'm doing it
Ya
Let's work it
Pose
Ow
Now we are going to go into the routine
Maybe I should just demo to you?
Yes, oh my god!
I'm so excited
Demo, demo
Woo!
So what's your opinion after looking?
D-E-D Ded
I started thinking that wow,
we were gonna be the Pussycat Dolls
But I think we're going to be the...
Kucing Kurap (knock-off) Dolls
So within the next 2 hours,
do you all think you can complete the entire thing?
We'll try our best
We'll try, we'll try
Ow
Oh no
Sweating like crazy
Ya, this one air-con room eh
I feel like if you do it with your friends it'll be really fun
then you can be like, pretend to be a girl group
like the Pussycat Dolls
Actually like, I definitely need someone to dance in front of me
cause if not I cannot remember the choreo
Which is your like favourite move?
Oooh, the squat one
You know why it's my favourite also?
Because you can sit down and rest for like just a second
What happening over here?
I don't know which part of me is dying
I feel like every part is dying
It's been very rewarding
even though the pain on the feet ah
like mad sia
I feel like after you finish dancing you like
"okay ah, not pain, I can do this"
Then suddenly when you stop right, you can feel it
And my calves are not even that bad, it's the feet eh
It's the bottom -
The bottom of the feet, ya
No, and then the fact that it is like that
Your entire like weight is on that
small surface
You know who I think is doing the best
in terms of face?
Adria
Adria is just giving face all day
Sew
She never dance for freaking 7 years eh
And her last experience was like, Chinese dance?
So moving forward later, the final performance
you all think will have any mistakes?
I think will have, but we will all full out like expression
Adria always says "full ah, full ah"
then I'm like "oh my god, yes, all out"
I think the feeling is the most important
I wanna feel sexy
It's like 29 years of my life I've never felt sexy
Today is the day
Sexy Fau
Hashtag that
We are back after a long day dancing in heels
Tired
How was the experience?
I cannot feel my legs anymore
ya, it's true, it's true
Oh my gosh
But it was very fun though
I never had so much fun
Like some more I dance with you all
The part where we stand together
Ya!
Oh my god, ya, the -
What was your biggest struggle?
Balancing in it
You all got see like models walking in high heels
then they like fall down
Ya, I did that leh
Our feet arch the entire session
Then it like, it hurts so much
Then now that we touch the ground right,
it's like "ooh"
Surprisingly, the heel part wasn't the most difficult part for me
I think the challenge of trying to keep up with everybody else and
picking up the choreography was the hardest for me
For me was like keeping the energy up all the time
Towards the end you can tell that our energy is going down
We always like "full out ah, full out, full out ah"
We say "full out ah, full out" right?
So I'm like "ya, ya, ya"
Then afterwards halfway I like "wa, tired sia"
Who do you think did exceptionally well?
Ally!
I need her to be in the front, middle, at all times
so I can copy her move
Stress sia if she beside you
Why stress?
Because I will look like a freaking chicken next to you
Would you recommend dancing in heels to people?
YES!
After you dance in heels right, you'll be confident wearing heels itself outside
When we first started out we like quite shy
But you know when we learn the steps we feel like more confident
Like I feel like empowered you know
Yeah
I mean like, even like guys,
if you wanna try it for yourself,
I can tell you where to buy the heels
Bugis Street holler
I really wanna try and do it again
And this time round I will bring a wig,
So when I flip my hair, at least got some hair to flip
When you all flip your hair look nice, when I flip my hair nothing move
I was very jealous
