To be a dancer…

“There are so many kids, especially teenagers, that can get
really down on themselves and are not able to express how they really feel.   To be a dancer is to have that outlet to really express yourself however you’re feeling at the time.  How you’re moving, and the story you want to tell, can be portrayed through dance.   And I think to have that is TRULY AN HONOUR.  And you get to spend that time being around friends too. You get to share that experience amongst other people that feel the exact same way.  It’s remarkable to have that.” – Zac Vran – Age 16

To be a Bboy…

Quote

“You don’t need to be able to do a backflip or head-spin to be a Bboy or a Bbgirl.  When I teach, I tell my kids, “If you just wanna be an ‘ill top rocker, you go and do that.” Just make sure you have the understanding of the freshness aspect, the cultural aspect, of how to share your dance and your passion with other people, because that’s what it’s truly meant for.  Dance is just to express and to share and to inspire, to bring a balance to yourself and to the community.  So if you just want footwork, do footwork!  It’s all good with me.”
