After seeing legendary group the Lockers perform on television, Sam was inspired to create his own dance style. Around the years of 1975-1976 Sam created a set of movements that evolved into the styles known today as popping and boogaloo (boog style). In 1977 Sam founded the Electronic Boogaloo Lockers, who later became known as the Electric Boogaloos. Currently Sam is still getting down and is the active leader and member of the EB’s. A true innovator of funk styles, Sam has helped push the boundaries to where they are today.
