9)Whats your 4 fashion tips you would like to share with our many readers?
• 1. Fit is King – The most dramatic improvement you can make in your style is to make sure everything fits impeccably. Most guys wear clothes that are too large. Make sure everything you wear is almost hugging the shape of your body – without being tight. Bad fit is an epidemic, cure yourself.
• 2. Keep it simple – You want a wardrobe that looks great on you, but don’t overdo it. Don’t wear more than three pieces of jewelry or more than three colors. Don’t dress like a rock star unless you’re in a band. If you want to be flashy, a simpler but stylish look would be sporting a black striped dress shirt with a white blazer, a dark pair of jeans, a dressy belt, and your sharpest dress shoes. You could also add a flashy watch or a simple accessory like an interesting necklace, but nothing more.
• 3. Change the way you see casual – casual doesn’t have to be boring. Have fun with collared shirts, or take some inspiration from those who approach casual a bit differently.
• 4. Pay attention to your supporting pieces - Some sweaters are lean and others are big and chunky. The first rule of thumb is that your top and bottom halves need to match. If you’re wearing a big, chunky, rugged fisherman knit sweater, your bottom needs to be rugged, too. Don’t wear a fisherman’s sweater with a beautiful silk-and-wool suit pant. Instead, wear it with something as casual as cargos or jeans, or dress it up with a Harris tweed blazer.
10)What kind of music really gets you in the mood?
• Music that gets me into a deep mood is, classical music, soca, African rhythms, R&B etc.
11)which other dancers on the island you admire and why?
• From a young boy I’ve been going to visit The Motiance dance School with my loving cousin Christian Lloyd. Going there every day and watching many beautiful dancers made me extremely happy. But there was just one of them that my eyes would get hooked on. Nicole Deweever. She became my favorite dancer and at that time I was only 10 years old and we became very clost friends. She talked to me about dancing, she would show me some basics steps and then I would show her what she taught me. And as time passed by we never lost connections with each other up to this day, and now she’s very famous in the world of Dance.
12)What advice do you have for anyone wishing to become a dancer?
• My advice for anyone who wants to become a dancer, never listen to people who talk negative, follow your mind, heart and soul. Prove them wrong; show them how far and what you can become as a dancer. Dancing is a way of life.
