STREET DANCER IDENTITY
Although he started dance later in life at the age of 22, Albert's connection with Street Dance came with ease, so adding dance into his craft just seemed natural.
​
Starting with Locking in 2012, Albert has since shifted his focus onto Popping/Boogaloo. His passion for the dance motivated him to travel and actively seek out internationally renowned dancers to learn from them.
Albert is also a prolific battler, able to hold his own on the floor. More recently, he’s been more active in the promotion, preservation, and education of Street Dance culture and history as well.
​
Despite teaching classes as an instructor, Albert continues to learn and improve himself, while sharing as much knowledge as he can.
