For a long time, while growing up in his hometown Bartica, Mikel Andrews was fascinated with the art of dance but settled for watching it on his television, as he did not have the courage to get involved. Today, he is a contemporary dancer who has been gracing numerous stages for the past seven years in and beyond the borders of Guyana.
“I was shy. I always wanted to dance during secondary school years but never got the courage to do so. This saddens me every time I think about it,” Mikel said in an interview with The Scene.
Mikel attended Bartica Secondary before he transferred to Three Miles Secondary School. Shortly after graduating, he moved to live on the West Coast Demerara, that was eight years ago. This led to him being more exposed to dance and a year later he signed up with the Classique Dance Company.
