\"angel<\/a><\/b>Dance Mogul Magazine<\/em> <\/strong>is honored to present another female dancer that is inspiring self-empowerment through dance. She started in her country and now continues to do the same thing here in the states. We know that there are millions more out there like Angel and we hope her article reaches them and empowers them to tell their stories too.<\/p>\n

Dance Mogul: <\/b>At what age did you discover you had a passion for dance?
\nAngel B:<\/strong> Since I was 4 I was always dancing in the house and at birthday parties. I used to dance lambada also, a style from Brazil. So since then the whole family already knew I would be the artist of the family. Me, I never planned to be a dancer, I knew I wanted to be an artist, sing, and perform. Becoming a professional dancer just naturally happened for me.<\/p>\n

Dance Mogul: <\/b>We have recently featured a lot of dancers from Brazil, what is it about Brazil that it breeds such great dance Talent?
\nAngel B:<\/strong> In the Urban Dance styles we are always learning from the OG Dancers that can teach us foundations in those dance styles, or young dancers that have something to offer, not only choreography. Since those dances didn\u2019t start in Brazil we really respect it and search for the RIGHT TEACHERS. So we always have brought the international teachers such as Elite Force Crew, Dance Fusion Dancers, Electric Boogaloos, Mr. Wiggles, Tyrone Proctor, and Archie Burnett among others that were in the scene since the beginning. That way we can learn the pure dance, essence, history and grow from that. Our generation has the opportunity to still have most of those people living and their still dancing; Young Dancers in the United States should take more advantage of this, and learn the Dances properly.<\/p>\n

Dance Mogul: <\/b>Who were some of your inspirations?
\nAngel B:<\/strong> When I wasn\u2019t dancing professionally, my inspirations were music videos, and some artist’s performances I used to watch on Tv. Then when I finally started getting into the Hip Hop Culture and Urban Dance Styles, my inspirations were dancers that came before me, such as Brian Green, Henry Link from Elite Force Crew, Marjory Smart, Tyrone Proctor, among so many others that inspire me in my journey.<\/p>\n

Dance Mogul: <\/b>Were your parents supportive of you dancing?
\nAngel B:<\/strong> Yes! Always! And I miss that after I moved to the USA. They used to go to every performance, rehearsal; jams even travel sometimes to a far place just to watch me. I am so glad that they know that this is my life and support it. Even though they get worried sometimes with this uncertain life of an artist, they trust me.<\/p>\n
