BERNARD • DANCER
Also known as B-BOY Li t t l e Bear .
The f i rs t mode l to be o f f i c ia l ly cast in our photo shoo t , Bernard was arguab ly the most anxious to do the job as we l l . A dancing hobbyis t , B-BOY be ing his main area o f in teres t - “Burnerd” as some o f us l ike to ca l l h im - is one o f the most promising breakers around . He a lso does jazz .
You can’ t br ing th is Lawtown-nat ive anywhere wi thout h im moving his l egs but that a t tr ibute makes him one o f the most spontaneous ( in a good way) person to be around .
