Unity LA really stood out among their peers at VIBE XV. Their style, approach, and concepts on stage were just some of the factors that distinguished them. On a night when there were endless hip hop choreo teams taking the stage, Unity LA was a breath of fresh air. We enjoyed their presentation, their vibe, and passion for their craft. For a performance that drew from lyrical and contemporary influences, the group showcased some of the best expressive feats that the male and female bodies can display.
You can see a clip of Unity LA at VIBE XV here:
The men of Unity LA demonstrated their strength and vigor throughout the piece. The women displayed a different kind of grace, showing us lines that were both sensuous and almost ethereal. A favorite crowd-pleasing moment was when of their male dancers was lifted into the air by his peers on a specific musical accent. You could hear the crowd cheer for that quickly staged, well-executed moment. Can we see more of Unity LA soon?
