URBAN DANCES
Forty Nguyen started taking breaking classes at the age of 18. He became serious about his dancing career when he performed his first solo at Definition on applicable Urban Dance Festival at the MAI (Montréal, arts interculturels) in 2004. From then, he continued performing for the Jazz Festival (2005), Usine C (2005) and TOHU (2006). In 2006, he was part of the cast of «Demain», a piece by the choreographer Paula de Vasconcelos of Pigeon International, with whom he performed in Montreal and toured in Columbia. Forty’s style is a mixture of bboying, ballet technique, acrobatics and hip hop. Recently graduated from Concordia’s Contemporary Dance Department, Forty has worked as an interpreter for the company Destins Croisés and is now working as a dancer for Cirque Éloize.
