Then she saw Janet Jackson's "Rhythmn Nation" and decided that dancing is what she wanted to do. Sasha's oldest brother was a Hip Hop head and once she heard Busta Rhymes (Leaders of The New School), Wu Tang, Common she was quickly was hooked. Hip Hop has and will alwasy be apart of her. Growing up Sasha took Jazz classes, Ballet, Tap, Flamenco, Belly dancing, and contemporary to gain foundation and broaden her technique, but Hip Hop choreography and breaking is what she loved. Sasha started Bgirling 2years ago and joined the crew Masterz of Mayhem from the Rio Grande Valley in Texas where she lived for the past 12 years.
