About Mac:
Coming out of purgatory neighborhood where young men do not make it out alive pass twenty-four years of age, I was forced to grow up wise beyond my years. I discovered my love for dance at the age of 8. Dancing became a way of escape from an environment of gang violence and poverty. Dancing was my way out of a corrupted neighborhood. I taught my first dance class at eleven years old. My first dance class was a group between sixteen and eighteen year olds. By this time, I realized my talents were beyond my years. I begin to participate in shows, state fairs, local dance shows and street parties. At the age of eighteen, opportunities started to present themselves when I starred in a Summer Jam. My talent as a dancer landed me a job in the industry as a personal assistant in B.E.T. Awards Show at only nineteen years old. A few years I was introduced to the opportunity of working under Fly Stylz as assistant creative director. With this opportunity I learned creativity, style, inspiration, vision and who I was as a
dancer. My style comes from a street experience and culture.
I have worked with a diverse style of artist in the industry. However, I worked a significant amount of time with Usher and Chris Brown. I have taught many worships on Stage Performance at different locations, such as: Sacramento CA, Oakland CA, Los Angeles CA, and Chicago, IL. I also have taught overseas in Australia and Germany. I have taught students at Universities including UNLV and Sacramento State.
I share my life story through dance. Hip Hop dance is not a job or a hobby to me, it is a lifestyle. I take pride in sharing my passion and love for dance with other aspiring dancers who enjoy the experience just as much as I do.
