Bonita has been teaching professionally for 10 years nationally and internationally. She choreographs and judges for Universal Dance Association and currently teaches at colleges, universities and dance studios throughout the U.S. She is recognized by her fellow dancers for being extremely diverse as a performer and choreographer. She has bridged her classic studio training with the culture of hip-hop to produce her unique and dynamic style. She is a member of The Legendary Rock Steady Crew and was seen performing with them on “Dancing with the Stars” as well as battling with them all over the world. She thanks Crazy Legs, president of RSC for being a big mentor in her dancing. Bonita recently became the newest member of the world famous dance group, The BEAT FREAKS, and can be seen performing with them on a number of upcoming projects. She is very thankful for the opportunities she has been blessed with and strives to leave her mark in the world of Hip-Hop, both commercially and culturally.
