The first dance performance I saw was Joffrey Ballet doing 'Billboards' to Prince.
'Que Sera Sera' had a very unusual rhythm. It was a challenge for me to pick up Rahman's beats and translate them into dance steps.
Ballroom is two people dancing together to music, touching in perfect harmony.
Man, I was tame compared to what they do now. Are you kidding? I didn't do anything but just jiggle.
I try to convey the musical notes through dance, take on the music.
Twerking is just limited to a certain, specific dance where it's hand on the knees and you're busting open. With bounce music, we do a whole lot more and everyone is so unique in the way that they move and their personality.
I would love to compose something for dance before I kick the bucket, and I'm not closed-minded about the dance, or the dance company. I would really just love to collaborate on that.
My mom and I used to dance to the Jackson 5 in our living room.
We Filipinos bond over food, music, dance, and shares stories. And to Filipinos, no matter who you are and where you come from, you always have an invitation to celebration.
