HEARTBEATSHOP

unleash a dose of exploratory improvised triphop. Drum machines, turntables, loop pedals, microphones and hand percussion ... yes please!
BORIS (dancer)
Boris (Vancity Lockers) stumbled into dance 5 years ago and has been going deeper and deeper ever since. He works on Hip Hop, Popping, Hustle, and Dancehall - but claims Locking as his first love. As one of the co-founders of the Vancouver Street Dance Festival, he splits his time evenly between organizing events, practicing for battles/performances, and just feeling happy on the dance floor.
