What is World Of Dance?

The World of Dance Tour is the largest U.S. Urban Dance Competition taking place in 9 major markets across the nation. With focus on the art of street dancing and today’s new aged choreography, World of Dance is the largest touring event embracing Urban Dance and Youth Lifestyle. The  county’s top dance troupes, hundreds of participants, and thousands of spectators will partake in performance festival settings, awarding today’s top dancer’s with the most prestigious acknowledgements. The World of Dance Tour promises to deliver an unparalleled experience to both participants and spectators in effort to build the reputation as the Nation’s authority in Urban Dance and Lifestyle.

This weekend I will be at WOD in San Diego cuttin’ it up…I got myself a booth at the event to help get my name out there in the industry and to share and show what I do as a lifestyle to everyone out there…My life down here in California has changed in so many ways, obviously for the better…and as long as I stay focused and stay motivated, everything else on my accomplishments will fall into place.

So if you’re in SD this weekend, please stop by WOD to witness a great event filled with very talented dancers and much more…and if you do plan on stopping by, please stop by my booth, check out my work and get that fresh cut for the weekend!

What’s poppin y’all…

I just touched down in Vegas with Lyanne, came down to cut up the JBWKZ for their album release party tonight!  As most of you know, I’ve been cuttin up the fella’s for the past few months now and they pretty much have me as their personal barber, which is pretty cool…The JBWKZ have done so much in the past few years especially after being crowned as, America’s Best Dance Crew!  They’ve been featured on many events such as the MTV awards, BET awards, NBA All-Star wknd, and many more…They are now in Vegas trying to pursue their dream!

The Jabbawockeez’ influence has spanned the globe inspiring minds through music and dance. Dressing in expressionless white masks and white gloves, the crew guides the audience’s attention away from individual identities and towards a unified and synchronized group. The Jabbawockeez create a canvas for the audience to visualize the music as they paint beautiful and artistic imagery through precise, intricate movements.

They have been brought back to Vegas by popular demand, doing shows this August 19th-25th at the MGM Grand Hotel…If you haven’t gone to catch a show, be sure to buy your ticket for the next available show! Believe me this is one show you do not want to miss out on!!!

This past Friday was the opening night for The Jabbawockeez very first showcase, MUS.I.C.  They finally got what they’ve all been working for, to perform live in Vegas!!!  It was only a matter of time until these guys would reach their dream.  From winning the very first Americas Best Dance Crew, to touring world wide, appearing in music videos, movies and commercials… The Jabbawockeez have definitely earned their spot in Las Vegas!!!  

It was early Friday morning when myself and Prince drove down to Vegas.  Prince was asked to help work with the Street Team Promo for the show, alongside LeeJay (manager of the BeatFreaks)  The whole day, myself and Prince worked with the Street Team and had them promote the show all dressed up as the Jbwkz…

I was supposed to cut the rest of the crew up after rehearsals but since it was the opening night, it was a busy and stressful night for the crew…Chris and Phil came through the shop along with Ben from Super Cr3w to get faded on Wednesday evening on their way to Vegas.  So we had to reschedule for Saturday early morning to cut up the rest of the crew…

“After the show, its the after party”…we all headed over to Studio 54 at the MGM to celebrate a great opening show!!! It was Chris’ birthday as well so it was a pretty big celebration…bottles poppin n everything!!! It was a great night indeed!

-myself and the homie Phil (jbwkz)-

If you are interested in watching their show, they will be at the MGM from May 7th – 26th.  It’s a show you cannot miss out on…believe me!!!

Below is a short clip of the homie Kid Rainen from the JBWKZ.

THANKS!

1160 E. IMPERIAL HWY BREA, CA 92821

This past Saturday, I was asked to feature at Active in Brea…My homie Eric aka Episode, is an employee over at Active, and he was nice enough to set up this event with myself alongside, Dino Mayorga, who does artwork on shoes!  I wasn’t really sure as to how this event would turnout, but it actually went very well!  I cut more people than expected and I made some new clients as well…Thanks for the homies who came thru to support the event…(JayP, Indo, and Brian) I didn’t get tipped as much but I did get hooked up with some FREE gear from Active!!!

Special thanks goes out to Episode for coming up with this event, and to the whole staff at Active for their kindness and support!!!
