Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Funkanometry are two young male alternative hip-hop dancers. They were on WOD and AGT. They were attending UCLA. While they were there in LA, they wanted to continue to teach dance like they did in Vancouver Island, Canada. Then they rented a very large space in LA and have it remodeled. Perfect for hip-hop or any style of dance. A place for dance battles. They faced the challenges of dealing with setting up the space, finding students, and facing challenges all new business face. They decided that they could sublet space that they renovated. Dani and her best friend Noel talked about how they needed to earn some extra money. They had run a small studio in their hometown, Lewes, Delaware. Living 3,000 miles from home at UCLA. The price of tuition was straining both sets of their parents. Carlow had found out from Noel that taught dance in her past. Noel and Dani were looking for a studio to hire them. Noel taught jazz, acro, and tap, and Dani taught ballet. Things heated up quickly between the pairs. The girls' parents were not happy; the romance between the two couples was fun-loving and intensely passionate.
