I'd really like to do this but I'll be performing at that time. I hope that you do this workshop again! Maybe at the Hideout- do they have different equipment there?

Yo!
Bump up this class
Bump it up
While your feet are stompin'
And the class is pumpin'
Look at here the crowd is jumpin'
Bump it up a little more
Get the party going on the stage floor
See cos that's where the party's at
And you'll find out if you're too bad
