Michael’s Story
It was in a YMCA in Melbourne, Australia that God changed the direction of Michael’s life and birthed a ministry that would reach many across the globe using a unique art form: Break dancing.
Michael learned break dancing as a hobby while a college student. In Australia for a six month internship, he now found himself practicing with 20 men in the city of Melbourne. These men practiced at the YMCA everyday.
This gave Michael consistent opportunity to build relationships as he practiced with them. As he heard their stories, two major themes were consistent: 1) These men came from fatherless homes and were starting to repeat the cycle; 2) They had negative experiences with the Church.
