Loebz shares his adoption story in Michigan

The Korean American Adoptee Adoptive Family Network (KAAN) has invited Rob Loebach aka Loebz of Ill at Will to speak at their annual conference.

Loebz will be speaking this Friday in Grand Rapids, Michigan about his personal adoption story, as well as his relationship between adoption and bboying. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a quick breakdance demo as well!

If your free, come to the KAAN convention.  Hope to see you there! Otherwise, please enjoy this video from Loebz titled “An Adopted Korean Canadian BBOY Story 2011”

More details from the video’s description:

A relation between bboying (dance) and adoption. A positive outlook for the young generation growing up. For the young ones who look up to me. And for the adopted parents who love their children. I put this together as a rough idea of the bond between my dance and my adoption. How it helped me through struggles and let me express myself when words, music, friends, family and anything else couldn’t fully understand. I will be releasing a new one in the near future featuring other Korean adoptees from around the world who are also dancers. I am proud to be adopted. And thankful for my loving parents.

Just something I want to do to be positive and give back to my adoptee extended family.

Ill at Will performs for Scion at London Knights game

Scion performance

On Friday, Jan 18 a few thousand lucky London Knights fans got to see ILL AT WILL: ON ICE! Thanks to ScionTown we got the chance to showcase awesome cars and awesome dancing before the London Knights vs Windsor Spitfires hockey game.

Budweiser Gardens was sold out for the game between OHL rivals and the packed house was a great atmosphere to perform in! Our friends Icon and Depp from the crew Air Bourne Precautions joined us as we did a pregame showcase in the concourse and took to the ice to break between the 2nd and 3rd periods. Check out the video below!

IAW Summer Preview

With summer set to begin, here’s a quick look at what’s new & exciting with Ill at Will!

London’s own Mind Your Mind (MYM) organization recently released a video interview with JFX, Kayo, Loebz, and Nasty Nick. The boys talk about expression and positive outlets through dance. MYM helps promote healthy living dealing with mental health awareness.

Some members of IAW have joined forces with a couple other local dancers to open London’s only Hip-Hop focused dance studio! O.N.E. (Originality Never Ends) Hip Hop Dance studio is dedicated to hip-hop, breaking, popping and house dance styles. Check them out on Facebook or see the class schedule on the IAW site.

On a more personal tip, I’m going to London, England for the 2012 Summer Olympics! My sister has an opportunity to play at the Olympics with the Canadian Women’s Basketball Team so my family is UK-bound to support her. While overseas I may take the chance to visit other European countries, so I’ll have to tighten up my Spanish and maybe pick up some German while playing Party Poker online (Sponsored link; although I do enjoy some online Texas Hold Em!).
