Crew: TSM/SOUL POWERED

Bio: Started dancing when I was around 17 jokin with tuts, waves, and bottin. got more into boog and poppin and a lot more serious with tuttin after meeting chris stein and battling chimp at battlejam, and meeting Walid at bananajam a few years back. Since then I've pretty much been hiding in Manchester and Liverpool working on technique and trying to improve!

[Man Like Griff]

Years Dancing: 10 overal - (5 on the funkstyles tip)

Crew: Just 4 Funk

Bio: Started getting my dance on in the mid late 90s when htting the jungle and garage scenes that were big in Bristol at the time. Inspired by some amazing dance styles in the raves! as the beats became soul-less and wack, I fell in love with the funkstyle scene in the early 00s. My only grievence is that i found it so late! bah

Chewy your not alone m8! Uk heads represent! When u go to UK champs, JD and other bboy events theres plenty of UK heads funkin it up....show ur selves!

[Ichi]

Dance Name: Havent really thought of one yet...

Years Dancing: 3 weeks

Crew: N/A

Bio: Never knew about popping until I caught a glimpse of David Elsewhere and found his dance style interesting so investigated a bit more and found Hyun Joon, then Salah, J Smooth, Pandora and so on.

At first just messed around in clubs and round mates house on and off but decided to start doing it properly 3 weeks ago as I needed to do something that will keep me fit and I would also like to be able to pull off some decent tricks/routines eventually. I try and practice a little bit everyday now and I am currently teaching myself.

[Uulari]

Dance Name: FunkyO

Years Dancing: 2 year

Crew: Back to the Funk

Bio: Started taking Popping lessons 1 year ago from Pistol Pete here in Finland. In the beginning I was more interested in robot and popping styles, but I have to say that last weekend after going to Acky's workshop, I finally noticed the pure greatness of Boogaloo. Our crew is getting down with original styles like puppet, scarecrow and toyman. I hope that in the near future our crew will start travelling to other countries in Europe to attend Jams. I'm looking forward to attending Popping Pete's workshops in London next week! I hope to meet dancers from all over the world on these forums!

Years Dancing : 3 yrs fckin around and 1.5 yrs hard trainin.

Crew: loner.

Bio: when i first started out, i just wanted to impress ppl....then about a yr later i got introduced to hiphop culture, with opened up my intellect and way of expression. i already drew good so i was able to express myself thru graffiti art pretty quick, but i wanted ppl to be about to understand me thru movement..so i did research on poppin. thats when i became serious. Sad thing is thats when i moved from Cali to some lame lil suburb in GA, so im all alone out here..and btw i hate dancing in front of mirrors.
dancerz_delight@hotmail.com <--- if you live in GA n wanna chill.//get the fck down.//whatever.

My dance style :
alters dependin on the song......
some songs i might wanna be hella "kid robotic"
others i might wanna do fast on beat footwork, take up space n scarce waves.
and others i might wanna be chill n do more waves~
