Nimoy, a South Bend B-Boy
Nimoy Vaidya is a b-boy, originally from Kathmandu, Nepal, who moved to the U.S. in 2015. He breakdances as an avenue for personal growth and a way to help kids in South Bend.
This week, Grotto Network released a new short film about Nimoy. It was directed by Chuck Fry and filmed by Kevin DeCloedt. It’s a special one.
Read Grotto’s synopsis and watch the film below:
Breakdancing is more than a hobby for Nimoy Vaidya. It's a way for him to be fully himself, a path toward healing, and a source of joy. Born in Kathmandu, Nepal, Nimoy moved to the U.S. for school in 2015. While struggling through his parents' divorce and being bullied at school, he found an outlet in the "b-boy" culture
"Yeah, I have tough days, but usually, a little bit of music and a little bit of dancing fixes that," he shares. "That's why I do it — because it just brings me joy immediately."
