MC Laffitte

I am a Glasgow-based dance artist whose work is grounded in the rhythms, resistance, and storytelling power of Hip-Hop and African diasporic dance styles. Dance allows me to express the things I struggle to put into words and to connect with people.

Over the past ten years, I have been actively involved in Scotland’s Hip-Hop scene, training with Pink Acid and more intensively with AKO and THREE60 companies.
My movement style is rooted in Hip-Hop and Afrobeats, and shaped by life itself: growth, change, resilience, joy. In recent works, I’ve explored themes such as cycles and personal growth through continuous and grounded movement. My solo Infinity uses the infinity symbol as a choreographic structure and metaphor for transformation, drawing from physicality, identity, and lived experience.

At the heart of my work is a desire to open space to be free, to feel and to move. I believe in the importance of representation and accessibility in dance, and I aim to make work that resonates with people across backgrounds and experiences. Whether performing, producing or creating, I move with the intention of connecting to myself, to others, and to the stories we carry.
