Special EmeroyTV episode for you guys today with a Profile in Drive!

Culture Shock Los Angeles is one of biggest community driven Hip Hop Organizations in Los Angeles. I had the honor of dancing with them a few years ago and it was one of the most humbling experiences as a dancer. Not only did I get to share the dance floor with amazing dancers, perform for packed venues, but I also got the opportunity to use my talents to inspire the youth.

Those of you who don't know, Los Angeles made huge budget cuts in their school system which means a lot of arts programs a gone (this is from my understanding at least). It's organizations like Culture Shock that are going to many schools and giving the kids the opportunity to be creative and express themselves. But, I digress from today's video.
There's more than just the glory of dancing and performing on the big stage, there's the people who work their butts off behind the scene to coordinate the events, deal with the publiscists, and really help structure the whole thing together. Without these people, the overall company wouldn't function as optimally as it could because these responsibilities are a beast in itself.
This episode takes you beyond the glamour beyond the dance floor and into the mind of one of the most important people in this powerful organization. Please welcome Allison Tanaka;

In today's episode you'll learn:
*The history and growth of Culture Shock Los Angeles
*What it takes to run a company like Culture Shock Los Angeles
*Her evolution as a dancer, to board member, to executive coordinator
*The challenges Culture Shock Los Angeles faced throughout the years
*How vision is what unites and drives a company
*The importance of staying true to your roots
*The power of giving and empowering your community
*How your sharing your talents and gifts can inspire others around you
*Breaking through stereotypes.
*Plus Much More....

Beyond the Glory and Behind The Scenes with Allison Tanaka

Teen Groov Summer Girls

This is a mix made majority by Isac Diaz. 
I remixed the ending with one of Diddy's songs simply because as a competitive dance routine, I felt like it didn't end as strong as it should.
