This was followed by the qualifying one-on-one battle rounds which showcased various movement styles as dancers competed to an unpredictable music selection curated by DJ extraordinaire Tha Cutt.

“All the rounds were tough and even more challenging when I had to dance against one with my favourite hip hop dancers. That made me realize that I have to go back to the basics and train all my styles again and build them by taking variations and improving on the performance elements in order to make it further in this competition”.
said the 2022 Johannesburg winner of the Red Bull Dance Your Style in South Africa, Sne

The search is officially on for the best dancer that will be representing Mzansi on the massive Red Bull Dance Your Style global stage for the ultimate title.
