In 2006, a well known industry mogul claimed that it takes 8 years to create a professional dancer from a beginner. Kymberlee Jay decided to set up this experiment to test this theory.
It had previously taken Kymberlee 13 years to become a professional dancer, however, she believed that with the correct foundation training, a good attitude, strong focus and hard working nature, the amount of time can be reduced to just 3 years.
With this idea in mind, Anarchy Cartel was formed. On the 21st January 2007 Kymberlee hand picked a group of young people to take part in the forthcoming experiment. They are aged 4 to 27 years old, all without any relevant prior hip hop foundation training. She currently works with them for 2 hours a week and teaches all hip hop styles from theory to performance. She also encourages each person to develop their freestyle capabilities in order to strengthen their overall dance ability. As a result, the Anarchy Cartel are fast becoming the UK's most talked about dance organisation for all the right reasons.....
