Locking4Life!

It is finally here guys. Gemini's take on the new Locking Concept the came he came out with. With close to a year or two, keeping people in suspense we can finally find out what he has up his sleeves. Gemini's Locking concept is the duality of the roots of locking brought foward to modern times. Exactly like what he explained to a handful of us during his workshop in Singapore, Locking 4 Life stresses on the importance of Locking in street dance culture. Have a look, its cool stuff. Gemini looks like celebrity material. Cool.
