So a few weeks ago i got a message from @blacklightstudios_za about featuring in their latest issue!
I was a bit like huh me👀 why?🤣
I’m not South African oh but i’ve loved the culture for many years now. They found my journey interesting and a snippet of my journey to this point has been featured!
I’m so grateful to be recognised in this way. Especially from a media house based in SA. It is truely an honour!
Thank you to the SA community always, to my mentors and to every single person I have met on this journey so far… the work has just really begun 🔥💃🏿
The journey continues🦾
You know whats funny…
I actually try and scale it back when dancing anywhere else outside of performing or teaching ESPECIALLY weddings because it’s meant to be cutesy and very demure..
HOWEVER when Henny pelu Wray and his nephew is in the system.. it turns to trying to be demure😅
My favourite person got married yday🥺❤️! Congratulations again bro, Love you always @fedorapapichulo

Would love to create this for real however to really bring to life my visions it is in the multiple thousands to possibly millions to execute! Probably breaths a deeper conversation of how expensive visuals are to execute these days but for the mean time…
A visual representation on what i see and feel when i listen to the sounds from Durban, Gqom! #gqomisthefuture
The headphones are also a hint to new beginnings but you will just have to wait and see..
#throwbackthursdayy
I love finding gems on my laptop because I completely forgot I wanted to shoot a Gqom visual in 2021 and had a theory that people who haven’t trained in Bhenga heavily but have a background in footwork based styles or HipHop would catch it!
This was the first rehearsal but wasn’t able to get everyone again because of schedules so I parked it. I also don’t speak to a few people here anymore loool (INDUSTRY 🙄🙄🤣) BUT I’m about to resurrect this soon…..
A snippet of my crazy but valid analogies and intrusive thoughts mixed in with the foundational breakdown of the style!
Week 7 tonight!
See you there 🙏🏿
Long time coming but finally coming state side and to the 6 💃🏿💃🏿
US & Canada Tour dates to note 🇺🇸🇨🇦
Can’t wait to dance with these incredible set of artists and with you all 💋❤️
I vowed to stop speaking up about particular issues but this one had to be posted! This rhetoric of continuously not being part of this conversation is beyond disrespect! I will go as far as saying that without African dancers, African music will NOT be where it is today!
Some of my favourite concepts and direction over the years compiled into a short reel.
A huge focus this year is to show more of how my brain works visually!!
Looking to create powerful conceptual visuals?
Drop a DM 🙏🏿
