It was a cozy Saturday night at Rhythma Movement Arts Studios, trying to mirror intricate shapes from one of the pioneers of the Vogue José Gutierrez, Father of the House of Xtravaganza. During his Vogue workshop, he said, “no one is was left behind in my class.” Every student in the room was gifted with a new discovery about themself. The next day I caught up with José and talked about his journey from Ballroom to Madonna’s Blonde Ambition Tour and beyond. I was on a cloud sitting by the edge of the bed in his hotel room watching the history of Vogue.  Photography credit: Johnny Rozsa
