Passivity will not make you a champion. Strive to make your mark.

About Me

I am a dancer, performer, aerobics instructor, personal trainer, & massage therapist. I have been dancing for nightclubs, special events, and promoters for over 10 years. Having developed a solid reputation for performing and after establishing an extensive network both in South Florida and New York City, I work independently and contract directly. I have worked a countless number of events of every kind from the Super Bowl half time show to Gay Pride in NYC (four years running). Having found true loyalty and support for my work within the gay community, a vast majority of my dancing is done at gay clubs or events. I also dance at The Clevelander Hotel in the heart of South Beach. That's my night time job. My daytime job is as assistant fitness director at Crunch Fitness on South Beach. Crunch is a great company to work for in fitness because they encourage us to merge fitness with entertainment, creating a fun environment for the active lifestyle. Having been in the fitness industry since 1998, I have taught in over 40 different facilities in Miami, New York, Cancun,and San Francisco. It's safe to deduce that movement and music are my life. During the day and at night, my job is to help people find their groove and make their body move.I love to learn, dance, find the beauty in things, and share my energy with others. I'm intensely passionate coupled with endless drive and have a propensity towards extremes. Being an over achiever by nature, I love a good challenge, seek constant mental stimulation, and always strive to be my best. I am blessed to be doing the things I love for a living. I feel my attributes are a gift; what I become is my gift back. Ideally, I would like to actualize my potential, contribute the most I can to society, and ultimately fulfill my purpose. It's not a choice, but my responsibility to explore universal truths, find the answers that lie within me and, in turn, make them rules to live by. I have an obligation to read my "book" to the last page and make "IT" happen. I believe I exist for a reason greater than myself, so I go about my journey carving my path, open to experience, and seeking to learn life's lessons without room for distractions.

My Interests


.. Create Your Own

I'd like to meet:

Secure, happy, intelligent people who can inspire, educate, or entertain me. People who are passionate about their lives and willing to share ideas. Creative, productive, motivated, driven, energetic people who I can learn from and enjoy.....
The Sexy Girls of MCP Racing at Hot Import Nights from Barrio305 on Vimeo .

Music:

"Is the answer to your problems," as the song says. Nothing moves me more than music. I feel it, I live it, it fills me, and thrills me. From contemporary dance music to classical symphonies, music creates an auditory metaphor of our world that can enter the body and move the soul. What do I like? How much time do you have? ..............
" Classic Cool " is about art for art sake.
It's about the art of music, not the business of music
It's about the business of truth, not the art of manipulation
It's about the courage of conviction, not the fear of rejection
It's about the independence of creativity, not the dependence of vanity
It's about the cultivation of originality, not the restraints of conformity
It's about the nurturing of talent, not the exploitation of mediocrity
It's about the freedom to express, not the fashion to impress
It's about art for art sake, not money for god sake
..

Movies:

Personal favorites: "Snatch", "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels", "Fight Club", "Reservoir Dogs", "Pulp Fiction",
