Breakin, Traveling, Language, Music, Movies, Life, Photography, video editing.....lotsa stuff.......
Music
All kinds except heavy metal and anything that sounds like it, OL COMMERCIAL Gagnsta Rap.....hate it......., I listen to just about everything though.
Favorite music is Soul Music, Hip-Hop, etc. Black music in general.
Anything that's funky and will get me moving, and I mean that old...in ya grandma's record collection funky stuff. But new school beats get me going too.
Movies
I love alot of movies, but these rank the highest:
Shawshank Redemption, Finding Forrester, Operation Condor, Sarafina, Zulu, Five Deadly Venoms, Legend of Drunken Master/Drunken Master 2 (same 1), Last Samurai.............more but iunno rite now
Television
Ehh, lotsa stuff...but I don't watch tv that much. Sounds contradictory I know..
Books
Bible (not just saying it, I really mean it)... At this point it's not my most read book, but it's the only book that saves my life, soothes my soul,and restores my faith, & my will to move on.
But I need to read more in general... when I do.. I'll have other fav books
Heroes
Not gonna put God and Jesus. Everything I do is to give glory to God and follow the example Christ set for me. So they not my heroes, they my life source and the reason I am who I am and why I'm still breaking.
I don't have any heroes, I have people I admire and respect which range from Family, friends, Bboys, Bgirls......and a host of others.

I'm 24 & a native of Chicago, Illinois. I currently reside in Madison, Wisconsin. I'm a Bboy! I am a member of Rhythm Attack, a crew based out of Hong Kong (I'm the only member in the USA)& Motion Disorderz (Milwaukee). Much love to Rock For Christ, & my Floor Physics fam.
I began dancing in the winter of 2001, 6 months after undergoing corrective surgery, which included a spinal fusion, for my spine due to scoliosis. Now I've been dancing 8 years and am continuing to grow & be blessed with this gift of dance.
ManOfGod = I follow God & Christ.

Breakin' The Law Taken By 4orce: Rhythm Attack vs Lunchbox Jamz
I'm also a dance instructor on the side, teaching breakin' to youth in the Madison community.
I'm a Senior at the Unversity of Wisconsin-Madison majoring in Chinese Language (Mandarin) and am a POSSE Scholar. I plan to go into my own mix of Education, Community work, Hip-Hop, and Ministry.
I especially wanna share the talents I've been blessed to have with people in the neighborhoods I grew up in and the ones like mine, specifically speaking to black and latino youth in the inner-city. It pains me especially that alotta black shorties aren't participating in the core of the culture that we created, but are being fed this one-sided garbage we see on tv.
God is my motivation for, the reason how, and the reason why I continue to do what I do. I strive to share the gospel with the world through the gift that God blessed me with and to show people that God is more than humming in a church and a fake routine you do because mom told you so. I am not perfect, and following God is the most challenging thing in my life... the struggle between self & God's will is a difficult road to navigate at time. But regardless on what I WANT to do in/with my life, I DESIRE to serve God... & that's what makes my life so dope for me :) All I want to do is share that passion/insight/feeling with others.
Anything else you wanna know about me, get at me.
Otherwise, check out my videos to see what I do :)
