Kieron Dwayne Sargeant became interested in dancing at age 16. Until then, he played the drums for his sisters while they danced for a local performing arts company, located in the southern area of Trinidad and Tobago.
After watching his sisters perform, Sargeant realized he wanted to be both a dancer and a drummer.
“I was just fascinated by how their bodies moved in space and the stories they would tell through ritual, movement, and gestures they used that symbolized certain attributes of our culture and history,” Sargeant said.
