Why I started dancing/history?

I first began dancing around seven years ago when I joined my school Chinese and Korean modern dance group and loved dancing to K-pop and Hip Hop. From there, I started my own K-pop dance classes in 2013 under "Mitch's Kpop Dance Classes" as I was passionate about K-pop and there was big demand. In 2016, it started to become more popular and some of my students created a small Kpop crew called "MDC". More recently I have moved into Urban Dance, and have joined a local crew here in Sydney called GVNG. Now I am pursuing dance as a full-time career teaching private classes to students and teaching at various schools and studios around Sydney and now online in the UK!
