If your group is dope, your name is dope. Shane: I think once females saw Beat Freaks, one guys saw Beat Freaks, it let them know that they can and should intertwine ladies in their crew if they want to take it to the next level. Those girls gave every other female breaker the confidence to say, we can form a crew and get on this show!

Sparks is due back in court on 20 April. That social network, she says, provides young people a space to connect around causes of shared interest—to volley ideas, support each other's efforts, publish articles, and air podcasts. Nia, who would later enlist her sister, Justice, to help grow the brand, contends that this work is just the beginning. I got involved in dance when I was 10 years old. I was taking classes at a recreational studio—I started with ballet—and I fell in love with it.
Later, I auditioned and was accepted to a pre-professional dance studio in Toronto. There was a lot of racism happening within the studio.
It got to a point where the artistic director would separate the Black dancers from our non-Black peers, put us in a separate studio and instruct us to learn the Vaganova method off a YouTube video while she actively taught the non-Black dancers.
Then, when we went into our Vaganova exams and we scored lower, she tried to make it a point about race—which, when you're 11 and 12 years old, you don't fully understand that things were manipulated. It was really difficult. When I was 12, I went to Joffrey Ballet School's summer intensive in Los Angeles, and that was my first time getting away from my home studio. I fell back in love with dance because at Joffrey, everyone is celebrated. When I was 14, I decided that I wanted to train at Joffrey full-time.
So, I moved to New York City and became a trainee. But when I was 16, I sustained an injury: I had stress fractures in my sesamoid approximately a year prior, and I continued to dance on it until eventually the bone broke all the way through.
My treatments included injections, laser therapy and other procedures, until I had to go on bed rest for several months. I started thinking about this dream I've always had of everyone being able to have dancewear in their skin tone.
I grew up dyeing my tights, pointe shoes and the straps on my leotard. It was alienating to walk into a dancewear store, and all of my friends were able to get everything off the shelf, but I had to go home and dye everything. So I started sketching designs and looking into how I could start this company. Suddenly, I had a lot more to juggle. Between being a full-time student, continuing my dance training, building a social network and creating an apparel brand, it was difficult to find a good work—life balance.
I'm grateful that my dance career has taught me about determination and the importance of time management, which has been invaluable in my entrepreneurial journey. My sister and I were thinking about how we could give young people access to a network, tools and information that could help make their dreams a reality. We mobilized a team of over 30 young activists and changemakers from across North America. The team took shape after my sister and I reached out to friends who had done work in activism and service.

Members can take action directly from our platform.

Our donation drive for St. Vincent and the Grenadines following the volcanic eruption. About 25 percent of the island was wiped out, and my sister and I turned to each other and were like, 'We need to do something. The launch of our second collection with Roots.
