<h3>On the Movement...Marz ZeroGravity...</h3>Omari Anderson more popularly known as ‘MarZ ZeroGravity’ started his dance career in the year 2011. After graduating high school he joined the dance company ElleNYTT under director Lashaun Prescott and Adrian Daniel and swiftly made his presence known on the entertainment scene with his daring, fearless and high flying acrobatics. His goal, to train himself to the peak of his ability, creating the perfect relationship between his acrobatic skills and Urban Dance. He earned the alias "ZeroGravity" after his daring stunts while on stage with Machel Montano whom he has been on tour with for the past 5 years (present date). He aims to immortalized himself in the art of dance by creating his own form of urban dance technique and creating and preserving the repertoire of movement of his country’s culture and people. His dance style both explores and creates a relationship between gravity and dance and one day he aims to teach it in a way that everyone would be able to practice. Currently holding a Bachelors degree in Fine Arts in Performing Arts (BFA) specialized in Dance (choreography) he furthered his craft by correlating it with classical dance genres such as Ballet, Contemporary, Folk and Indian Classical. He continues to make waves in the industry by working with top artistes (Both international and Local), contributing to their stage performance/presence, touring and teaching Soca workshops around the World and helping other Caribbean islands to develop their dance industries
