Gymnastics has been a part of Ofentse's life ever since he watched "Magic Mike" and "StarWars." The kicks and flips performed in those films manifested a daring and risk taking side of him that changed his life completely. He learned a lot from falling on his butt doing a backflip that eventually He would land on his feet and once he did, his team went nuts over his new accomplishment. He went to the professionals saying "Teach me more. I want more!" It took about a dozen knee scraps before he landed his first B-twist which took place on a patch of grass near the street corner at 2:00 am. He thanks all of his friends and coaches who have supported him and transformed his life.
Living in Indiana, Ofentse Malatse grew up playing soccer, basketball, swimming, track, and performing in the arts. He developed a love for acting while looking up to his idols like Will Smith, Chadwick Boseman, KSI, HBk Shawn Michaels, and John Cena. Ever since he was young, he has continued to improve his range of abilities to be an actor. At the age of 9, he sang as a soprano in choir. He was co-captain of Concordia's hip hop dance team; this also involved performing in local B-boy battles in Fort Wayne. He also did gymnastics and performed on street corners for different audiences. This has given him the confidence, motivation, and drive to succeed as an actor. Some of his favorite movie titles include the drama film, Nightcrawler, and the comedy featuring Will Smith, Hitch. The most recent works he has been featured in includes the short film See Me, drama movie Sacred Hearts, and Gergori J. Martin's The Magic.
