Corinne Lazaroo

ever since i started playing ball and krumping, breaking, just dancing in general, my life has been about everything to do with my passions. my biggest obsession has become shoes, whether i have been determined to have the most or the best shoes out there. in the dancing industry i am involved in, our shoes define who we are and ultimately how good we can be at our skills. i personally believe that jordans and nikes are the best possible shoes a dancer like me can own. they provide the right amount of grip to exert every move as precisely as possible, and look SICK in the process! for this reason alone, i do not own a single pair of shoes that isn't nike or air jordan.
second to my obsession of shoes has come my obsession with nike and jordan clothes. it seems to be that the more clothes of these brands i own, the more confident i feel when dancing and playing ball. i try to own as many items of clothing from jordan and nike as possible to coordinate with my many pairs of shoes. my clothes match my kicks, not the other way around =].
the man himself is to me indescribable. some of my happiest memories include jordan in some way or another. the first ball game i ever watched when i was extremely young had Jordan playing and since that day i have dreamt of meeting him or having as much to do with him as possible (part of my obsession with the brand.) at the time i couldn't comprehend how amazing he was at different moves on the court, and i wished i could be as good as him one day and accomplish as much as he has throughout his life.
i love jordan because he is just brilliant on the court and off the court. period.
