Shaquille was born and raised in Curaçao and moved to the Netherlands when he was 18 years old. He started with teaching himself movement of urban origins. After that Shaquille got his degree at Fontys Fine Arts School as an urban contemporary dancer.
After working with various companies and choreographers, he used this as an opportunity to create his own movement language. He focuses on what is called (E)motion ‘Energy in Motion’. He creates by using layers of emotion and topics that he feels that needs to be discussed or explored hoping that this opens a space to have a dialogue.
