Interesting insight. Thanks for posting!

Possibly Naive Question: you mentioned your martial arts background and that no one in the group was a dancer. Was choreography a challenge seeing as it was your first job?

I was 19 years old when I got hired on that show. It was my first professional job. All of us had martial arts backgrounds, not a dancer in the group, although this was about the time when Capoeira first broke in the states. Many of the people in that photo went on to great careers in stunts, fight choreography and action design in films. And it all started in cheap spandex, haha. Anyway, it helped me pay for college, which was great, and I made some life long friends. I got to travel across the US and go to Argentina and Ireland. It was an exciting time in my life, one I'm very grateful for. I remember selling out in El Paso, and literally surrounded by thousands of kids, screaming for out autographs. That jacket is buried away in my memory box, but man, those were great memories.
I think of those people in that photo all the time, and hope that life has continued to treat them well.
