Battling in his local and surrounding communities. Hungry to develop himself as an artist he joined his first company called Kontagious to develop skills in choreography. He would later become a captain/leader and take those skills to start a high school competition team at the age of 18 and in three years of existence managed to lead them to being the 4th highest placing team in the state of WA. His dance experience stretches from video shoots for clothing company, performing for some of LAs popular choreographers at local events and performing in stadiums in front of 16,000 people for events such as "WE DAY". Zahra Masaoka was born and raised in Seattle and has been dancing for 10 years.
