About the dancers of DDP

DDP Drill Team is lead by Billie Bryant (pictured at your right), who is no stranger to performing on stage, she has performed professionally in DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia and in New York City. She choreographed dances for and performed with the Avant Garde Belly Dance Troupe Martiya Possession for five years.

Combining inspirations from her past and a longing to do something totally different then Belly Dance, Billie created the DDP Drill Team! Billie pulled inspiration from her past as a cheerleader and drill team member to create the artistic blue print for DDP. Billie grew up listening to Devo and Kraftwerk and she continues to be inspired and excited about electronic music, especially German Industrial and Synthpop!

To begin her artistic quest, she hand picked the DDP dancers. Scoping out the dance floors at local clubs, spying and zeroing in on the best and most spirited dancers. She was surprised
to find a few willing and daring souls. The DDP dancers are: Sasha Nyx, Corrinn Mullins, Virginia Faith, Rachel Donelson, Jade Lauron and Captain Billie Bryant.

Many of the DDP members have a military drill background which has added tremendously to our structured marches and choreographies. Each devoted DDP performer comes from a varied and experienced background of different styles of dance and drill training.
