For three successful seasons 2003 to 2005, LARRY LIU was involved with Jteam Productions as the in-house Hip Hop dancer, dancing together with the group FUYO and resident emcee Yang Bo. Besides being their resident Hip Hop dancer, Larry was engaged in other Jteam Productions series including cameo acting roles and other appearances, as well as being their dance choreographer for some of Jteam’s talents, such as Ah Nan and Lao Zha Boh.

Besides a career with Jteam Productions, Larry spends most of his time perfecting to become a B-Boy. With influences from Rock Steady Crew, Soul Control, Drifters, Expression and Fireworks, Larry trained hard and acquired a unique style of his own. Determination and hard work paid off as he soon won Champion at Zhenghua Hiphop Dance Showcase Competition in 2004. This opened up many various opportunities such as theatrical productions and television commercials (TVCs), all achieved before obtaining his Bachelor of Science in Information System Management from Singapore Management University.

Determined to share his knowledge of B-boying, Larry took on the role as a mentor to many eager students since 2003. Teaching at numerous educational institutes in Singapore, Larry aims to widespread B-boying knowledge and intends to further develop the young Singapore B-boying scene. B-boying and Hip-hop lessons are also taught at fitness centers such as California Fitness, Flash Fitness and Amore.

Other than organizing events and giving classes, Larry is known for crisp and tight showcase standards, ensuring his students project the correct attitude and presence on-stage.
