My name is Philup and im excited to welcome you to the Freedom Junkies Project experience. I created this project based on several goals. One of my biggest all time fears when it comes to dancing is, in fact, FREESTYLING. This personal project inspires and challenges me to push myself harder and further educate ourselves on the dance floor whether it be in the areas of freestyle or choreograpy. My focus is quite simple: showcase & promote the talents of an ecclectic group of dancers by allowing themselves to share various individual skill in the areas of popping, breaking, locking, house & commercial hip hop styles. To spread our love of music, to challenge ourselves, surround ourselves with good dance vibes, educate each other & introduce our various hip hop dance influences. The Freedom Junkies Project is not a crew or competitive team, but rather an open collective of dancers, entertainers & individual battle competitors from the dance community who have continuously inspired me & whom i have personally invited to share their talents together on stage as an on-going freestyle & choreo performance group. These are my friends whom i consider well-educated artists, who are constantly growing, with different backgrounds & various levels of experience, all willing to represent their own personal take on music. People often ask, what defines a Freedom Junkie? The term 'junkie' is defined as "one who is addicted to a specified activity". So, in relation to the project, a Freedom Junkie is ultimately addicted to being free with the music, addicted to being constantly open, moved, impacted and inspired. As i always say, the Freedom Junkies do not move to the music, but truly lets the music move them.
I want to personally introduce you to a collective of inspiring friends, seasoned dancers and rising artists: Current Freedom Junkies - Philup, Val Pal, D-Lock, ToyBox, Quikfoot, Jimini, Jet-Li, Danga, Mpact, Ray Basa, Lobo, A-Tab, Praying Mantis, Lawrence, DJ Vinom, Simbol, Sassy Cassie, Bentots, Chinkzilla, Villn, Jenny Valles, Nico, Aldosound, H.G., Mikey, D-Girl, Lizzy, Victor Kim, Full Out, & Roachy Roach.
