If you missed the epic workshops given by Mr Wiggles last November, you are in luck! He loved it here in Saskatchewan so much that he is coming back to gift us with his knowledge once again. Mr Wiggles will be in Saskatoon on Sunday, November 30 and his workshops will take place from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm, location TBD. Don’t miss out, last year’s workshops and lectures were unforgettable!Steffan "Mr. Wiggles" Clemente, born in 1965 in Bronx N.Y., is a South Bronx Puerto Rican raised on hip hop since the early '70s. His dancing career started by battling all around New York City. He built his battling reputation until he was able to battle around the world. This includes Europe, South America, Asia, the Middle East, Canada, and on the stages of Broadway. Mr. Wiggles has also been credited for two important movies which helped establish hip hop today. These movies are "Beat Street" and "Wild Style".
During his time in the graffiti crew, TC5, Clemente was known as "Rek" by other members of the group. Clemente originally got his stage name of Mr. Wiggles from a leader in the TC5 crew, who went by both "Seen" and "Mr. Wiggles." While cutting class, Clemente had shown Seen a certain dance move which inspired him to give Clemente his side-alias, Mr. Wiggles.
Aside from dancing, Mr. Wiggles also worked in theater, film, and music with popular artists such as Graciela Daniele, Bill Irwin, and Ann Marie DeAngelo. He has been a featured artist in the Apollo Theater and performed at the Kennedy Center. He has appeared in music videos with artists such as Missy Elliot, Usher,Madonna, and Limp Bizkit, among others.
Steffan Clemente is married to Zoraya Clemente and has 6 children named Unico, Alexandra, Talib, Ammar, Atiya, and Zamaria.
