BRIAN GREEN (Co-Host) – a.k.a. “Footwork,” is a choreographer, teacher, and dancer, who began dancing at seven years old. He studied Tap, Jazz, Ballet, Modern, and African from Phil Black, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, and Joffrey Ballet. While he studied the dances mentioned above, Brian was inspired by seeing dances done by his mom, including hustle, salsa, and some African dances. His older brother did bboying and electric boogie. Wanting to learn more, he went to the NYC underground scene between 1983-84. By the end of 1984, Brian understood and was a part of the Hip-Hop/club culture and would continue, eventually immersing himself in House culture and dance and developing a unique and very fast footwork style – earning his nickname. In his career Brian has choreographed or danced with artists like Mariah Carey, Gwen Stefanie, Fergie, MYA, Foxy Brown, Missy Eliott, Salt-N-Pepa, Busta Rhymes, Barbara Tucker, EVE, Kraze, MAW (Masters at Work), and many more. His teaching has focused on the history of dances in the Funk, Hip-Hop, and House culture, which he has spread through the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Africa. In these countries he has been a judge for countless dance contests, promoting the true art, culture, and essence of these dances! He was even a judge on So You Think You Can Dance in Singapore. He is the 2001 ACA (American Choreographers Awards) recipient for Best Hip-Hop Choreography in a Music Video for his choreography in the video called, Free by Mya. He created the dance company, WORLD SOUL, the dance education event House Dance Conference, and online dance classes available at www.TheyBarelyUnderstandHello.com. He was also a Foundation Team Member of Red Bull Beat Riders. “Love to all in our different processes.”
