He started dancing when he was five years old with hip-hop. Gabe’s parents have fully supported his dancing career right from the start. As a child, he suffered from asthma and other allergies which needed him to find an indoor activity. Since he was not getting many chances to employ his energy outide, his sister got him into dancing, where he let out all his pent up passion and energy. He has always had a passion for dancing, right from the time he used to dance up and down at his sister’s dance competitions. Gabe was just about ten years old when he won the Hall of Fame Junior Solo National Championship, about one year after he started competing. Due success, he had received a number of dance scholarships from prestigious training workshops, conventions and events such as Camp Pulse, Jump, Nuvo, Co Dance, Monsters of Hip Hop and The Dance Awards. he is trained in jazz, tap, ballet, musical theather and contemporary. He said once “Ballet, ballet, ballet — especially for boys! It’s the foundation for everything.” But most videos he is featured he is performing hip-hop. However, his freestyle is killing it all. He said that he learned from dancing leadership, preparation, professionalism, patience and also how to attracts "chicks" on a party. But to play the macho he was bullied too much in school, because he was a male dancer.
