1. Who are you?
-I am 10ACITY, a street dancer in KZN.
2. When did your journey begin?
-My journey began not long ago, in 2012
3. What motivates you daily?
-My daily motivation is primarily Jesus, bringing glory to Him as well as my friends and family who are constantly supporting me.
4. Who is your inspiration?
-Jesus once again is my inspiration, but I do also have so much respect for all the dancers around me such as BBoy DonnieD, Stabby and Verb NonHuman.
5. When and where is your next performance?
-My next performance is a small one at school, but the dance season is starting soon so there is a lot to come up.
6. Do you see a future in Durban Dance Industry?
-I think that this community has potential to grow as many people are trying to contribute to the art here such as Craig Bullock.
7. What are challenges or obstacles do you come across as a crew/performer(s),especially when performing around durban?
-My biggest challenge is the lack of competitions and shows. Publicity is so scarce that a good dancer in Cape Town will be more successful than a great dancer in Durban. This is a problem that the Spar10z have noticed and are trying to change.
8. Why does it seems like we have less number of dancers then before in Durban?
-This is probably due to people not seeing a future in dancing here. Dance is seen as a recreational activity, not a career.
9. What makes Durban Dance Industry Good/Bad from other cities in SA?
- As I said before, this community has little to offer those who take this way of life seriously compared to other cities.
10. How can we make sure that Dance/performing Art still exist and well presentable in the city of Durban?
-We need to be constantly be pushing ourselves and each other to express ourselves as loud and clear as possible on our movements to show people what dance means. We should also earn the respect of those around by rejecting the bad habits that Street art is sadly associated with.
11. Is there anything you would like to share with us or with your supporters
-Learn everything you can. Diversity in what you know means a lot. If you're a breaker, learn contemporary for balance and control. If you dance ballet, try locking just to experience a different way to express yourself. Don't be afraid to try it all.
