Bravo Lafortune

Haitian-born Brahms “Bravo” LaFortune, grew up in Brooklyn. "My father was a great dancer," and “my older brother, Plake (George E.), danced like the devil on fire.” LaFortune blends fast-footwork (“freestyle jazz” he names it) inspired by older styles of bebop (or scat) dancing, and “People just walking down the street – but the bad part of it,” then he finishes with a floor dive.
