Interview and Notes
You play the right song and watch out! Saul dominates
the dance floor. His domination is like his DJ experience, by keeping
himself in motion until the final beat.
Saul Dances House and loves to Pop-and-Lock.
Saul dances House and loves to Pop and Lock. Saul has been dancing
in House and Hip-Hop clubs since he was twelve. His influence was
his brother and sister because they both knew how to pop. Saul was
no older than five before he was doing it. By watching the shows
"What's Happening" and "Soul Train", he was
influenced and learned to lock.
Saul feels he may be at the end of the road but always loves to
dance and always will. Some techniques he uses to improve his dancing
are:
He sees the move first in his mind when he hears a great
song
Counts the beats in his head, which helps immensely.
Saul's idea of what makes a good dancer:
"You have to have love for it. You have to feel it." He
states, "you can't force yourself to dance a certain way if
you are not feeling it. So do what you feel and after a while when
you want to do a hot dance move it will come out great when you
least expect it. Basically it has to be in your heart and soul."
Q: There is a lot of competition out there. If someone came
to you, what advice would you give them to better themselves and
how to cope with the negativity?
A: "I'd ask 'how badly do you want it and want to give
it. I've battled dancers from Philly, DC, Jersey, Florida, Maryland
and New York. You can dominate and have a great time when you are
battling; know you won the battle but the majority of the time you
give each other props for going out there to have a great time.
Sometimes you have very arrogant dancers that think that their stuff
doesn't stink. That is not what dancing is about. I really learned
that when I went to NYC and danced against and with "Elite
Force" who are dancers that will make your mouth drop. They
gave me BIG props the first night I ever danced in "The Shelter"
nightclub. It was like 'wow!' 'I really appreciated that'. So don't
give up with the dream of being a hot dancer. Just do your own thing
and after a while you will be trying new things no one would ever
think of."
Notes: I would like to thank Mike "Whatdahell" Fry for
putting me on the Web site. I've known him for years, not sure the
full amount but he's a great guy and a cool cat. So when you hear
my stuff on his Web site please give a shout to him for putting
me on so people all over the world can see my dance moves, style
and future things to come from me and members of the crew.
I would like to add that dancers like ourselves
have a lifestyle as we are just like everyone else, but when we
are on the dance floor feeling the music, we really dont care
if people look at us and think we are crazy, we are just doing something
that we live, that is in our heart, something that we love; and
show through the emotion of what music does to our soul. This is
what we live.
peace,
