Baltimore, Maryland.

535
00:23:06,551 --> 00:23:10,722
In Baltimore,
everything is dealt with hostile.

536
00:23:10,806 --> 00:23:12,349
Throughout Baltimore we meet a lot of kids

537
00:23:12,432 --> 00:23:16,561
who are very passionate but don't have
any direction.

538
00:23:16,645 --> 00:23:20,649
Something about the kids remind you of

539
00:23:20,732 --> 00:23:23,443
just how pure and genuine everything is.

540
00:23:23,527 --> 00:23:25,278
Ayonna came in, I thought she was,

541
00:23:25,362 --> 00:23:27,447
just gonna be another young lady
that we taught.

542
00:23:27,531 --> 00:23:30,200
But then you start to see there's

543
00:23:30,283 --> 00:23:31,159
special things about them.

544
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:33,036
You start to see how they cling to you

545
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,497
because you're like the father figure
that they never had.

546
00:23:35,580 --> 00:23:39,292
They go from being strangers,

547
00:23:39,376 --> 00:23:41,670
to practically being family members.

548
00:23:41,753 --> 00:23:46,424
[Ayonna] My name is Ayonna and I go by the
name of Yona Baby.

549
00:23:46,508 --> 00:23:48,301
I like working with BMore Than Dance

550
00:23:48,385 --> 00:23:52,347
because dancing makes me feel like
I have talent.

551
00:23:52,430 --> 00:23:55,600
It helps me travel lots of places

552
00:23:55,684 --> 00:23:59,396
and it makes me feel like
I can get noticed

553
00:23:59,479 --> 00:24:01,022
by a lot of people.

554
00:24:01,106 --> 00:24:05,110
My dreams are to be a dance teacher and
teach other kids.

555
00:24:05,193 --> 00:24:08,113
The heroin epidemic hit Baltimore
extremely hard.

556
00:24:08,196 --> 00:24:10,866
We were living in a place of turmoil

557
00:24:10,949 --> 00:24:13,618
without many outlets whatsoever.

558
00:24:13,702 --> 00:24:18,331
Once our kids hit about that, that 17,
18-year-old age

559
00:24:18,415 --> 00:24:20,584
they're kinda looking around like

563
00:24:43,857 --> 00:24:46,067
You don't get too many situations

564
00:24:46,151 --> 00:24:51,198
where you're being requested not only
to perform,

565
00:24:51,698 --> 00:24:54,409
but to prove in a battle format that

566
00:24:54,492 --> 00:24:57,204
you're better than everybody,
it takes a lot of heart.

567
00:24:57,287 --> 00:25:00,665
Young ladies here, once they reach that,

568
00:25:00,749 --> 00:25:03,460
that age where, you know,
life really starts to kick in,

569
00:25:03,543 --> 00:25:07,964
we tend to lose the lady talent faster
than the guys.

570
00:25:09,132 --> 00:25:12,677
The judges themselves look
specifically for

571
00:25:12,761 --> 00:25:15,222
the dancers to not only utilize

572
00:25:15,305 --> 00:25:20,644

but also to show evolution

looks repetitive.

You also have to have that
