Episode 5: Babatunji

If you've seen dance in the Bay Area, you've probably seen Babatunji. His extraordinarily athletic and almost superhuman movement style has captivated audiences both onstage as a longtime company member for Alonzo King Lines Ballet as well as onscreen in films by Post:Ballet, Max Savage and Kate Duhamel's Candy Bomber, among others.

Clare spoke with Babatunji about his dance journey and his insight and experience as a dancer on film.
