The beautiful event was held in Kiseleff Merchant House close to Senaatintori.

They were serving home made Chocolate by Pralina Chocolaterie and some sparkling by Aperol. What a nice combo!

We were wearing Lumi from head to toe. In this picture Me and Anneli were wearing the Saana boot and Venla was wearing the Tilda boot. I must say that boots were very comfortable and warm. They are definitely made for the Finnish weather.
Couple of weeks ago Me, Anneli and Ama (The Hoouse of Ninja Finland) were invited to perform at Mariela Sarkima's Hair Bible- book release party at Ahjo club.
Our performance was kept as a secret until the very last moment. Mariela came up with idea where she put her former/current colleagues in group of two and they had to come up with stylish hairdos. They had 7 minutes time to come up with something new and fresh!
And the battle begins. I try to look Anneli and Ama and all i can see is hairspray and confused hairdressers =)

Thank you Mariela for having us at your event and Congratulations for on getting your book published. It's awesome!
Last sunday EeachOneTeachHelsinki ry organized a event called EOTH in vogue. We as a vogue dancers felt like we need more smaller events and battles in Helsinki. Couple a years ago the scene was growing really fast it was the "Thing" to do. Everybody wanted to learn voguing. But after year or a two people started to disappear from the classes. I heard people saying shit like " It get's boring" or " It's easy" and so on. Now we are at a point where there is maybe handful of people who stayed active. Shout out to the House of Milan (Jenni and Lilli) and The House of Ninja and The House of Ultra Omni for keep in it real.
We need to get better and stronger together!
Our biggest goal is to have a active scene that would start growing and evolving to the next level.
I hope that all the Vogue dancers that didn't show up last time come to the next event and show their support.

The lack of participants changed the hole battle concept to another level.
We decided that all the judges will compete and give feedback to one another. After every round we would go thru what happened and what could be done better. We talked a lot about different elements and categories, performing and battle techniques. It obviously helped a lot and i even remember one of the dancers saying that "I've never been given so much feedback". I think we accomplished a lot even though there weren't many of us.
I would like to thank everybody who showed up! It really means a lot. Even though this event wasn't in a club or if you can say in a "real" environment it was really important for us.
Olli (Fe'Fellas) and Jenni Milan ( House of Milan)

The House of Ninja performed at Mariela Sarkima's Beauty Brunch which was held in Klaus K design hotel. The place was packed with beautiful models, bloggers, make up artists and singers such as Krista Siegfrids.
We started the event with our voguing showcase by doing runway ( model walking), posing and hands performance. This was my first performance with my Legendary Father Benny Ninja. It was an honor to perform with him. As you can see from the picture under, He is a true definition of VOGUE!
