HYBRIDMOTION BEGAN with a duet... Jun and Mia are from different dance backgrounds- Mia is an Argentine Tango dancer, and Jun's style is an eclectic fusion of modern, breaking and acrobatics. As a couple, they wanted to learn each other's "language" of dance. The perfect opportunity came when Mia's father (Musician + Composer, Malcolm Dalglish) asked them to create and perform a dance at a benefit that he was producing. They chose a piece of music by Malcolm called "Bellpump." (It had always been Mia's favorite song by her father, and she listened to it often throughout her childhood.) Jun and Mia created their first duet together, "Kokoro No Uta" (Song of the Heart), using their mix of aesthetics and techniques. The collaboration set something in motion, and Hybridmotion was born.
