DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 16
Hey guys,
Hopefully for those who got disastrous results (like me), this will cheer you up.
A relatively new crew competing on a new season of America's Best Dance Crew, I.aM.mE. But these dancers aren't new to the dance scene at all, we have been seeing videos of them since 2009. 2 of their members, Moon and Pacman, are great tutters, so you can actually see elements of tutting (making 90-degree angles with your arms) in their performances.
In addition to moves that every member of a group does on his own, you could experiment with what we call "team moves", which involves the entire group getting together to achieve an intended effect. It could be a massive tutting sequence seen in the first few seconds of the performance above, or something else that, with a member not present, the move would not be possible. Team moves add something different to a dance, hence we try to include at least one in every.
This is why you guys should meet up more, freestyle to random music, learn more about each others' styles of dancing and make use of each other's strengths. Holidays are in a week's time, so unless you are down for intensives, start now (or after MM for year 2s)!
Also, whoever is in year 2 and 3 and is interested in joining Footdrill Competition (FDCOM) 2011, please email batch 59 at rircb59@googlegroups.com. Thank you!
And remember that normal trainings start on Monday!

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 14
Hi everyone,
Although the Mid-years are ongoing, let's take a little break to watch a little video :)
Illusion - A very cool bit of dance that I will be sharing with you today:
In this choreography, there are some bits and pieces of "ultra-fast motion/movement" which you may or may not have noticed. If you didn't really see, its fine, because it blends so well with the music that it may be hard to pick up the first time. In dance, to follow the fast beats, you don't have to make ultra big movements and make it so concise. Because the actions happen so fast, people will simply get the feeling that you hit every single fast beat, and then they'll all go WOW! The main thing is behind this ultra-fast movement is the STYLE in which you did the move and not the actual move.
An example I can give you to try is this: When you drink water, you may find yourself doing 3 simple actions:
1. Pick up the cup.
2. Pour water into the cup (using your other hand)
3. Bring the cup to your mouth.
3. Bring the cup to your mouth.
4. Drink water.
If you make all these 4 steps into a dance move, make it sharp, maybe add a little bit of footwork here and there and do the 4 steps to a quick beat and you'll get something really cool.
Ok enough procrastinating, go back to your work. :)

Additional Information for WRCD
Hi Guys,
Those people who have incomplete uniforms will also be excused from the contingent.
It is only counted as incomplete if you do not have:
- Name Tag
- Boots
- Belt Buckle
- Shirt / Pants / Belt
- Beret*
- Uniform Buttons
*People who are missing berets or uniform buttons please inform Colin by Tuesday. We may have stock of these items.
Take note that if you are only missing badges, you will still need to join the contingent.
For those who have already paid money for uniform parts earlier, we are still trying to get the items as Red Cross HQ has been busy with the relief efforts in Japan, and did not entertain the purchasing of uniform parts. Also, the uniform supplier has also changed. The year 1s have not received their uniforms too, so we expect that those of you that need new uniforms may only be able to get it at the same time as the year 1s. We will try and get your uniform parts ASAP.

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 13
Hi all,
I vaguely recalled someone telling me during the dance workshop if they can “My heart will go on” for their PN dance item. Well, classical songs can be quite challenging to dance to u know. You rili nid to present and display the feel.
So, we have an example of Mike Song doing a solo to classical music.
Few things you should notice.
1. The awesome waving and isolation technique. This is call skills and it takes time to learn. Those who came for the workshop shld know abt this.
2. as always, notice how he hits the beat / lyrics / music, how nicely the moves fit the song. The idea is to have your moves “singing” the song
3. One thing which may be lacking in choreography is dynamism. It is important to engage your hands, legs, body and head to give yr moves variety.
Hope this serves as an enjoyment in the midst of the stress from MYCTs. (it is important to relax at times u noe)
Stay tune for DVOTW 14 :P

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 12
Hello everyone,
The Year 1s have just gotten back from the World Red Cross Day at Yio Chu Kang Secondary School, which I hope you've enjoyed. There was also a mass dance there, so to add on to the dance atmosphere, here's an insane combination between the S**t Kingz, Mariel Martin and Keone Madrid!
When I was watching this, I couldn't stop watching how they'd easily change their formations and do team-based moves. Formations and making your team movements will be one of the hardest things you will probably face, especially since you have so many people in the formations to move!
Also, you might want to check out how "weird" their song choice is, picking many slow songs and those songs that are probably far off from your typical listening genre. Slow songs and these "weird" genre music can be very difficult to dance with, so you need to know how to play with the beats and match it with your moves!
Remember that your MYCTs are coming up, so remember to study hard too!

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 11
Welcome back to DVOTW, In the past 10 episodes, you have seen:
Kyle Hanagami
Mike Song
Keone Madrid
Lyle Beniga
Mariel Martin
Shaun Evaristo
Choreo Cookies
S**t Kingz
Jabbawockeez and more
In this episode, we are gonna introduce you to Movement Lifestyle (ML).
The start of the dance performance is at 2:10, so if you dun wanna hear the emcee talk, jus skip
An interesting part is the freestyle section at 5:40. As u can see, each of them take turns to freestyle to a small part of the song. Even freestyling, u still have to hit the beat as you can see in the vid.
For those who went for the workshop, try to spot some of the techniques and style, things like milking, waving. Also see how natural they are even when walking or moving about.
Btw, ML has a cool hand sign (like our bring it on hand sign)
Movement IS a lifestyle... and stay tune for DVOTW 12.
On the side note, you can view all the DVOTW under the label 'smile'. Hope they give u new inspiration for your PN performance.

Funds collected from Newspaper Collection
Hi guys,
Good news! We collected $388.70 from Newspaper Collection this year, more than last year's $376. Although this falls a little short of our goal of $400, this is still a very good result as there was heavy construction and many units did not have newspaper for us to collect.
The funds will be donated to VWOs that we will be working with over the course of the year, which will be announced next semester.
Thank you!

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 10
Hey!
It's number 10! Can't believe we have come this far. Remember sometime back, we mentioned Shaun Evaristo? His moves are freaking @^&$%&#$!# smooth. Oops lol.
When dancing, what matters the most is your confidence. It affects directly how much you want to show to your audience. Of course, if you want to be as smooth as he is, you'll need some technique and a little bit of muscle. But all of these come naturally after some time.
MYCTs are nearing. Have you started? Muahahahahaha.

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 9
Hey!
Before Saturday ends, lets get down to DVOTW 9! America's Best Dance Crew. It was the first dance competition we were introduced to, but don't be too into the world of ABDC. Why? Because I myself used to think the JabbawockeeZ were the best dance crew in the whole world ever. But as I took notice of more competitions (especially the more underground ones), I realized there were many crews as synchronised as them. Not that they are bad though, they are far from it. Just stating that because ABDC is much more mainstream, people fall into the trap of taking the crews that compete as the only good ones. Which was why we started off with Kyle and Lyle, etc.
This is my favourite performance from them! And one of the best in the history of ABDC as rated by its creator, Randy Jackson. Oh, and season 6 is coming soon!

Excuse Form for Trainings, Camps & Special Events
Hello everyone,Please see below for the Excuse Form. It must be used each time you are absent from training, camp or any other official Red Cross events. If you are more than 30 minutes late for training, an Excuse Form will also be required. By the way, please don't trouble your teachers to fill in the form for you (or send emails or write letters to excuse you). Just fill in the form yourself and get your teacher to endorse it (for school-related excuses). Also, submitting the first page of the excuse form will do. The Attendance Procedures and Regulations are on the last 2 pages. Thanks!

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 8
Hi all,
I believe you have heard of S**t Kingz from DVOTW 6. So here is their winning performance at Bodyrock 2010.
Some things i wan to draw your attention to.
1. Use of props. U haven been really seeing a lot of props used in the prev DVOTW so here is an example of how u can use a hankerchief as part of the dance. Do note that props can be rili useful but u nid to be rili confortable with it before even using it for a dance.
2. Ending. The ending firstly is dramatic. Endings leave the final impression so it is gd to hav a creative yet impactful ending. Secondly, even at the drama part they keep their syncronisation. It is a dance after all, so it wil look nice will all the performers are coordinated.
Well, keep loking out for more vids from S**t Kingz. :P

National First-Aid Competition
Hey all,
The National First-Aid Competition just ended yesterday
We have achieved:
Finalist in the Management Category
1st in Awareness Category
Great job to the FACommers and Awareness Cat ppl ! I know your holidays are pretty occupied with all these stuff, but we appreciate the time and effort you guys put in.

Great job to the FACommers and Awareness Cat ppl ! I know your holidays are pretty occupied with all these stuff, but we appreciate the time and effort you guys put in.
Here is our First-Aid Awareness booth. Lots of effort (and money :P) put in for the board game. FIY, they are supposed to raise the awareness on the importance of First-Aid to the public and our unit did this mainly through the games and interactive elements.
For our management team, although we didn't manage to get into the top three positions, it is commendable for them to perform under such conditions. (honestly, the scenario and the injuries took me by surprise) There is always room for improvement and we will work towards it next year in FACom!
Nevertheless, thx for coming down to support our fellow unit mates for the competition. For Yr 1s, i hope this is an eye-opener, as u can see how a first-aid team should manage a scenario (e.g. firedrill). Next year, it will be your turn, do not miss it.
See you back in school, trng as usual :P
Bring it on!

what you choose to say outside of training is entirely up to you. we believe in the right to free speech; to the freedom of expression.
all we can do is to remind you of the possible consequences of your actions. whether you choose to listen, or not, is another matter entirely. similarly, whether you want to take notice of and react to what others post online is, of course, up to you to decide.
of course, if you elect to post something that is false, slanderous or a misrepresentation of our views or positions, then we will take action by providing the true side of the story, exposing your lies for what they are.

we can only help you understand and appreciate the consequences of your words and actions. ultimately, it still remains your choice to do whatever you may want to do. take note that once something goes online, it's pretty hard to take back.
freedom of speech is a universal right.
so is the right to ignore people who are making themselves out to be idiots online.
I hope this makes things clear.

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 5
Hey guys!
Guess what this post is all about (lol)! Be introduced to Choreo Cookies, a combination of efforts from awesome choreographers Keone Madrid and Mariel Martin (both are engaged to each other!). The word 'cookies' may seem soft for a dance crew, but it's the first word that describes them best. They were placed second in this particular competition, Bodyrock 2010, only to be beaten by a 4-man crew (more about them next time). Okay, enough. Time for the video!
It's quite long, but it did have our attention the whole time. March camp is approaching at an amazing speed. Get your platoon flags ready!

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 4 + FACOM
Hey!
Episode 4 of Dance Video of the Week has arrived! Remember Kyle Hanagami? Here's a video of another choreography by him.
Brilliant right? Notice that this choreography is actually performed on stage and not in a dance studio, and by a dance crew. Well you can categorize dances into two groups: those that are taught in a studio, and those that actually make it on stage. But also, there can be those that belong to both.
Also, tomorrow's gonna be a very special day, so this post will be extended a bit more.
2009...
2010...
2011: ?
Tomorrow will be the FIRST AID COMPETITION 2011 PRELIMS!
Tomorrow will be when a part of history will be made.
Tomorrow is when it will all be decided.
Here's wishing the best of luck for the FACom team! Bring glory to the unit! And go to bed before 11pm!

Welcome Batch 62
Hi all,
Let's officially welcome Batch 62 to the unit. *claps*
To all Batch 62 cadets, CCA will be a whole new experience for you guys. New subjects, new learning points, new friends and a new family. Your batch will stick with you for the next 4 years here, so learn to work well with them and the experience will be an enriching one. Honestly, you guys did a great job in displaying unity as a batch in today's games, helping each other regardless of platoons, so great job!
To the rest of the seniors, I know that u may not have the chance to officially meet them, but do try to talk to them whenever possible (before trng, dismissal etc). Get to know their names and platoons. For Batch 61, you will get to interact with many of them in your respective platoons. Take the chance to make new friends too, as this will be your platoon for the rest of this year.
On the side note, each platoon will have to create a new platoon flag for March Camp. Do start designing or preparing soon. Details regarding the flag and the Camp will be released at a later date, so stay tuned.
New platoons, new identity; new batch, new family. :P

Also, this is another reminder that the Gold Modular Workshops will take place tomorrow (see post below). Have fun!

Clarifications
Hi all,
there is no meeting tomorrow, contrary to the previous post. Sorry for the confusion!

Welcome
To all cadets of RIRC,
Hope it’s not too late to wish all of you a very Happy 2011 and welcome back to school!
2011 will be yet another exciting year for all of us with different levels going through different experiences. I hope the sec 2s are getting more familiar with school and more matured especially in knowing what’s out there, how the next few years of life in school will unfold. I hope you will guide the new cadets coming in soon and be good examples to them, along with the rest of the seniors. As for the sec 3s, I hope you will have (or had, depending on when you read this post) a good time in OBS and get to know your new classmates better. It will be a different workload this year with so many more responsibilities and new leadership opportunities to try. As for the sec 4s, this is the year to make every day count before embarking on a new world in year 5-6. This is also the year you become ‘full-pledged’ leaders and shall be guiding the sec 3s to be even better leaders of the future. You need to work hard together sharing the same vision, bringing RIRC to greater heights and doing everything for the unit, not just for your own gain. As mentioned during Principal’s assembly, nobody is the center of the universe. We are all a part of something bigger. We have to work together and always have others in mind.
My wish this year is that everyone plays their part, and to be responsible. I cannot expect all the cadets in RIRC to be an A star cadet meaning, to never miss a single training the whole year, join all competitions, to achieve the highest of ranks, to participate in NDP, SYF, to volunteer in anything and everything or to do so many things. Of course, that will be ideal but really, just the basic responsibility of being a cadet in the unit. Think about it. What is this basic responsibility? I would like to hear your responses soon when we meet.
This Wednesday will be our first meet-up but without the sec 1s and 3s. After that we have the Raffles Trail on Friday, 7th March from 2-530pm and training to resume next Monday onwards.
Looking forward to a good 2011 with all of you. The best of luck! J
Regards,
Ms Ruhana

A Whole New Year
Hi all,
Wondering if any of you guys actually look forward to next year.
Year 3s you're gonna have new classmates and all, and it will be a whole new learning experience for you in LP (in case you dunno, its Leadership Programme). Not trying to scare you guys, but things are gonna become really hectic, more workload, more subjects, more responsibility, whether during training or not. Before they sky comes crashing down on you, please enjoy the rest of the hols and rest well. Enjoy the time you have in OBS too :)
Year 2s, although you will still be in the same class, it is now you responsibility to look of the NEW batch of Year 1s coming in your platoons. New faces, new platoon members, new challenges. I hope you look forward to these new leadership opportunities.
3 more hours to a new year, 3 more days a new school term, 3 more months a new March holidays. Treasure the present and embrace the future
Happy New Year to all :P

Newspaper Collection
Hi guys,
We collected 1,880kg of newspaper on Saturday and raised $376. The money will be donated to the 3 platoon CIP VWOs, and also the Nature Society (Singapore), since this is a form of recycling and hence some money will go to an environmental organisation.
Good job everyone!

My Sec 1 Life in RIRC
I can still remember my sec 1 life in RIRC.
Life was harsh back then. It was really regimental, we were punished quite a lot.
I still could remember the 1st day of Red Cross training. We had an FD lesson, which ended up in us owing more than 100 push-ups. That was because we did not move the chairs to the sides fast enough. We had to do 50 push-ups each training, and that was our first few trainings. No such thing as an orientation for our batch.
Back then, we were also punished for not bringing our platoon flag. For those who did not know, we had to bring our platoon flag every training. Also, when a person fidgeted, our whole batch usually had to knock it down. I admit that I was always very scared of punishments, and was very scared of trainings back then.
So guys, I hope you guys can cherish the new fun activities and trainings, not those boring, regimental ones. Batch 58 and 59 have both put in tremendous amount of efforts to make trainings better for you guys. I hope you will be grateful to them, and return back the favor by having a good attitude, and being committed to RIRC.
