KoopaTV | Dance Clip of the Day: "Phamish's Angel"

It's always a pleasure to discover new talent. This episode of KoopaTV takes us to Houston, Texas. It's in this setting, we're introduced to Stephen "Phamish" Duy Pham.

To be completely honest, I didn't know what to expect, when I clicked on this video, but as soon as he moved into this very emotional piece to "Angel" - Amanda Perez, I couldn't look away. His footwork is so clean and fluid, and his muscle control captures the 'tremor' of Amanda's voice, perfectly. If you liked this piece, check out his other work at his Youtube channel, s0PHAMISH.

Enjoy the story-telling!:

1990's (or called 90's for short) are a bboy powermove, where you spin upside-down, on the palm of one hand. A few years ago, Cico uploaded this video, where he SHATTERS the current world-record, with his 27 spins!!
