How old is bgirl bonita

East3: Can you describe your style of Breaking? What makes your style unique? I would say my style is funky, dynamic, and a bit more sporadic these days. What makes my style unique is that I just love to dance period. I love being guided by the music and I love to do what makes my soul feel good.

When I was younger in my Breaking, I was very caught up in the moves and trying to execute everything correctly but thank God that mentally left me many years ago. I just stay true to what moves me and embrace my history and that has made me the Bgirl I am today. East3: I know you are in the cyphers and well as the competitions, can you break down the the difference between the 2 ways of dancing?

Bonita: Cyphers and competitions are two very different beasts. I believe in balance, and when I first started breaking I was encouraged to have a presence in both cyphers and competitions so I have been getting down in both of them from the beginning. Like I mentioned earlier, the scene is very heavy in organized competitions and for me I can choose to shy away from them or take it on and attack it. On the style tip, I am not one to judge what anyone is doing or not doing.

I just encourage people to continue changing the game with what they can bring to it. Leave those moments alone. I get inspired watching and supporting Bboys, Emcees and DJs and often draw what I see, do you infuse your inspirations into your dance?

Being surrounded by that environment is so important. I cherish those moments because it they are so fulfilling. East3: What is your greatest moment within the culture that you have experienced?

Bonita: WOW! Of course there have been so many good ones, but I would definitely have to saw the day I got down with Rock Steady. I will never forget that day. At the time I was living in AZ far away from my crew so it was difficult, but I remember feeling like my journey had only begun…I was so right.

Yes, I got smoked! That was the beginning of my walk with RSC and since then the moments just continue to get more epic and historical. I do believe that there will be evolution as there always is with everything. I can say for myself, when I first came into the game, there was NO youtube, or the amount of massive battles being organized to a level where they are today. Back then people that were getting down were gaining local respect and had to travel out of their city for anyone else to even know their name.

I just feel today a lot of the scene is driven by the trend, the fame, the recognition and not because they truly love it.

There are many fantastic dancers that, unfortunately, cannot relay their expertise in a manner that allows students to learn from. We expect to see growth in our dancers, and therefore choose teachers that can work and cultivate our dancers.

Lastly, and most importantly to us, each of our staff and teachers must be people of character and integrity. How someone carries themselves shows a lot about who they are. We expect nothing less from our allstar faculty!
