Biography[]
Marko was born and raised in Guam before moving to Los Angeles in 2008. He comes from Filipino background. His mother is/was a ballroom instructor in Guam. He trained in all styles of dance such as ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, tap and even gymnastics although he claimed that he was not a fan of anything other than hip hop growing up. The training he had was not consistent and since the opportunities were not available to him, he learned from YouTube.
