Most dancers battle to win. Alain aka “Hurrikane” Lauture battles because he is in love— deeply in love— with the music, with dance, and with the practice of acceptance. Listen in on his journey from being a kid from Port-au-Prince who only danced alone, to sharing stages with Madonna, MTV, Samsung, and winning battles like Juste Debout, Hip Hop Internationals, and Summer Dance Forever. Hurrikane joined me this week to talk about stillness as dialogue, how Maya Angelou changed his mind about judgement, and why he is NOT Locking…
We explore:
Why he refuses to call it a battle — it's a game, it's play, it's "with" not "against"
How stillness is a real-time negotiation with his own insecurities
Why it took years to understand an early conversation with Don Campbellock
This one's for the love of all dance, and the context that makes it sticky for generations to come.
