W.A.F.F.L.E Crew’s Performances

The Crew is most famous for performing their impressive routines on the New York Subway cars filled with passengers. Their story and their journey is one of the most interesting ones. They all actually started dancing together so as to raise money to be able to compete with each other in LiteFeet dance competitions. However, once they realized that they preferred to dance together instead of individually, they formed the crew.

They used to perform their intricate routines in over 40 subway cars a day to earn their tips for survival, but once their concept and dances went viral, there was no looking back. They started being featured in various music videos, commercials, and television shows, and in 2018, they even got to perform on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ for the first time.
