0:33

like we did Canada’s Got Talent a few

0:36

0:38

0:39

1:31

[Music]

1:45

since past eight to nine years

1:47

social media and everything is so much

1:49

open for all the dancers to learn so

1:51

much it’s amazing at my time during like

1:53

in 2004 2008 it was not much especially

1:56

in Canada or us when I was doing my

1:58

undergrad I’m in training is very

2:00

important wish I had more training but

2:02

even teaching someone helps you a lot

2:04

whether I teach them Bollywood I teach

2:06

them hip-hop I can teach them semi

2:07

classical autism lyrical hip-hop and

2:10

Regional folk so it helps even though I

2:12

am teaching I still train myself almost

2:14

every day with all the students so I

2:16

started dancing since I was a tour I was

2:18

around 10 to 12 years old I did my

2:19

undergrad in U.S so I finished that in

2:21

2008 then I came here my parents were

2:24

already here so they were the ones who

2:26

supported me a lot because I did not

2:27

know what to do yes I’m a dancer that’s

2:29

it my mom was the one she told me that

2:31

you know we got a house and I have a

2:33

studio I’m like why do we need a studio

2:34

it’s like you can start classes I’m like

2:36

I don’t know if it’s gonna work and then

2:38

my mom just pushed me and we just

2:40

started we just started for a hobby and

2:42

then a hobby just turned into passion be

2:44

honest with your passion be honest with

2:45

your work if you are honest you it works

2:48

and I’m just one best example 2009 I did

2:50

not know what to do I was just clueless

2:52

and then my mom helped me and from there

2:54

it just now I’m here

2:56

it’s not been easy as I told you I mean

2:58

nothing is easy like when when I tell

3:00

people I’ve been having this dance

3:01

company since 12 years I’ve have had a

3:03

team since 12 years like how do you keep

3:05

people motivated part how do you keep

3:06

your team with you and how do you do

3:08

this it’s as I told you it’s mostly Word

3:10

of Mouth you got to work hard obviously

3:12

uh keep teaching keep learning you know

3:15

how you say oh I’m a CEO I don’t need to

3:17

learn you gotta keep learning as much as

3:20

you can you got to keep teaching even

3:21

from students I learn like they give me

3:23

some steps and I’m like oh how do you do

3:25

this so I think it’s all about time it’s

3:27

all about the journey it’s not about

3:28

connection how you talk to people how

3:31

honest as I said before how true you are

3:34

to your art people will see that honesty

3:36

and because as I I did not tell you this

3:38

before since past one and a half year

3:40

all the business I’m getting like we

3:41

have shows almost every weekend it’s all

3:43

4:26

4:31

4:33

contacted us the way the way the

4:35

information they gave us that when you

4:37

perform what promotions you’re gonna get
