Here he became the only male dance major at the University. At the age of 18, Jr became a member of Prarieview A&M's Classic Dance Ensemble; formally a dance company of 20 women. His training includes Hip-hop, modern, African, Latin, tap, jazz, ballet, & dancehall. He also has trained at Broadway Dance Center, Alvin Ailey, Steps, Motion Underground, Colorado State University, Cleo Parker Robinson, & Canyon Concert Ballet. His hip-hop technique and choreography has been described as 'smooth, powerful, & eye popping.' Jr. currently resides in Denver, CO, where he continues his shadow mentorship over students of all ages as the hip-hop director of Unleashed Dance Studios.
