Macca

Bio:

Philadelphia via Erfurt Germany,
Macca was born in Atlanta, Georgia. At 5 years old her Mother relocated
Macca and her 2 older brothers to Germany. She gained interest in hip-hop
through her older brother who was an MC and organizer of many hip-hop
events in Germany in her early years. By having that exposure she grew
closer to the culture first hand at these international events. Although
her brothers both used to train in Breaking at a young age, Macca was
too young to remember so her true first taste of Breaking was through the
B-boys in Erfurt, Germany. She was mesmerized at first sight but remained
a spectator until she began taking Breaking’ classes in America January
2004. Learning from Raphael Xavier, one of Philadelphia’s Masters of
Breaking and Jamie Merwin, Artistic Director of olive Dance Theater,
Philadelphia’s leading Breaking Company. In 2006 she continued her studies
with 360 Flava founder and leader, Brian “B-boy Hannibal” Newby. Macca has
been very grateful to travel to countries like Germany, Switzerland,
England, Bolivia, Canada, France, Puerto Rico, and Reunion Island. Macca’s
achievements include being chosen to represent Team U.S.A at England’s
annual “B.SUPREME Women in Hip Hop Festival 2009” with team leader B-girl

through Hip-Hop which was Organized by the U.S. Government.

will come her way.
