The first routine was fast paced, hard hitting and very full out. I found this particular choreography a struggle due to the fact my pick up retention is not great and with the moves being fast and intricate if I lost a count I found it hard to pick back up. 
The second routine Candace taught us was still in the style of hip hop but the music was very slow and oozy, allowing me to bring out a lot more personality and feeling through the choreography. There was a lot of room to add your own vibe and feel interpret the dance through how the music made you feel, which I found a lot more suitable for me. 
Candace gave me some personal feedback after the first class, as it was clear I was stressed and worked up due to the intensity of the routine. She said I had the movement and the right energy I just needed to work on my pickup and learn how to attack every movement without throwing away the movement. 
This taught me to push myself outside of my comfort zone and try classes that I do struggle with because I came away from that class feeling more confident and challenged.
