Today, as I celebrate 37 years of life🥳
I also celebrate a remarkable 26 year journey in entertainment, (including my senior citizens organization @house.of.s.t.y.l that I founded on this day 15 years ago in 2011)

For over two decades, I have danced, created, dreamed, documented, and archived moments that many never even knew existed. Moments that helped shape not only the performer I became, but the visionary I continue to evolve into.

And now… The vault is opening..

I proudly present “THE IMMACULATE DANCEOGRAPHY”
A Complete 3 Volume Collection.
A curated exhibition of rare and never before seen archival footage, unreleased performances, rehearsal sessions, behind the scenes moments, interviews, creative experiments, and forgotten treasures from throughout my artistic Dance Performing journey.

Step inside the worlds of:

✨ THE A’CAPPELLA MONSTER ERA
✨ RAVERZ HEART
✨ 4TH BASE
✨ And something new…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY (TO ME)
Stay Tuned… by @tlaj.network

Above the obstacles are endless possibilities, so take the leap of faith in this journey called life,

I’ve never been one to rush and post life as it happens, I’ve always preferred to collect the moments, bask in them and revisit them when the time feels right.
Earlier this year, I quietly disappeared into what felt like a 6 month hibernation, a season of reflection, healing, growth, and rediscovery. In that time I found pieces of myself I had overlooked and dreams that I had placed on pause, and then unexpectedly, someone who sparked my interest reminded me that consistency still exists.

Ever since Virgo Season I’ve been thriving! Intentionally choosing to step back out, not for a post but for the experience itself. I’ve been living, traveling while giving back, creating memories, and embracing the beauty and JOY of being Fully Present with LIFE! And to me, that is the true definition of abundance.
37 years into this journey, and life continues to teach me that growth never ends. I am still learning, and still evolving into a better version of myself.

As I walk into this new chapter, I’m grateful for every blessing, all the lessons, every closed door, and every beautiful soul that has crossed my path in the last one.
My story is still being written (literally) and for the first time in a long time I’m enjoying every page without worrying about who’s going to read it.

Here’s to the remainder of my 30’s, a season of PURPOSE, PEACE LOVE FUN ADVENTURES and Becoming Everything I was always destined to be! CHEERS 🥂

🎉HAPPY FIRST OFFICIAL DAY OF VIRGONIAN SEASON!♍️
Our favorite season of them all!

Since his teenage years, Trent has held a deep appreciation for art and the creative minds behind it. What began as a passion for celebrating artistic expression of others as well as his own artistic creativity through the art of dance, eventually grew into a lifelong dream of becoming an A&R representative, to a physical and digital art collector, creating a space where artists and their work of all kind could be recognized, appreciated, and preserved Forever!

Today, in an increasingly digital world, that dream is becoming a reality.

After much consideration, Trent has made the decision to close The Virgonian Agency for the second and final time and transform it into a digital Art & Music Gallery/Museum experience dedicated to showcasing and celebrating creative talents from around the globe. This new chapter will focus on bringing greater visibility to artists of all disciplines while creating opportunities to connect innovative ideas, brands, and visual storytelling conceptual projects through The TLAJ Network @tlaj.network

The models previously represented by The Virgonian Agency will continue to serve as muses and featured contributors within the gallery and will remain valued members of the creative community Trent has built.

This transition marks not an ending, but an evolution one that honors the past while embracing the future of art, culture, and creative expression.

CONGRATULATIONS to my Model & Friend @kobetprice
Saturday night KOBE walked in his Very First FASHION SHOW for @50shadesofslayfashion @theslaymagazine and did an excellent job!! 👏🏽

The day he walked up to me and said that he wanted to model and seen how persistent he was about it, I told him that If you apply yourself and put your all into it and I see that you’re serious, then I’ll get you into some shows, I can get you to the door, I’ll even open it for you, but the question is do you have the courage to walk through it? Well he did just that, he walked through and never looked back, he attended my workshops and briefings, attended every model rehearsal (that was an hour away from him) he stayed focused and the rest is now in the history books. Thank you for Trusting my vision, I’m just so proud of you! 👏🏽 This is just the beginning! There’s so much more to come! @kobetprice
