The crew was formed in 2007 by Matthew "Dumbo" Nguyen and specializes in popping, choreography and robotics, hence the name Po-reo-tics.
In 2009, the team chose Andrew "Chad" Fausto Mayate to substitute for Justin "Jet-Li" Valles in the 2009 Hip Hop Dance Championships.
In 2008, both Matthew (Dumbo) and Lawrence (Law) competed on Season 3 of America's Got Talent with the crew Sick Step.
Through their creative ideas and synchronized choreography, they managed to utilize the stage to its fullest and become extremely popular with the audience.
Joining these dance crews will be singing acts, “Joseph Vincent” & “JR Aquino" and MyChonny as host.
They held auditions for children ages 16 and under, who if selected would become a part of the first generation Mini-otics (Mini Poreotics).
Miniotics later competed at Hip Hop Internationals in Las Vegas, Nevada and placed second in the Junior division representing the United States.
Poreotics worked with many other individuals and groups including YouTube stars like Kevjumba and dancers like I.aM.mE crew.
They continued to gain more fame on YouTube after winning and performing at several different competitions like the HIP-HOP Internationals and World of Dance.
