[Lily] I love this city so much.

It's very diverse.

It's kind of a reminder of where I come from and how hard everyone has worked to be here.

It just challenges you to be as much yourself as you can be.

[Roberto] That's what L.A. is all about.

It's creativity and being original and adding something to the dance culture.

I was dancing for many years already as a b-boy and a friend of mine brought me in to do a show for Heidi Duckler Dance Theater.

And it was a door opening to me cuz I was able to still do what I do, my movement with this whole new way of looking at things.

[Lily] What's so unique is that we only dance in non-theatre spaces, so as a dancer it just provides that much more sensory exploration.

It's always good to put yourself in uncomfortable positions and not knowing what's gonna happen.

And I think that's been the most significant for me.

Just embracing that and like taking every day as it comes and find your own voice that much quicker because everyone else is so themselves and so unafraid.

[Roberto] For a lot of dancers here, they should always want to stand out.

And how do you stand out?

You be yourself.
