Commenting on the successful regional round in Delhi, Gunjan Arya Managing Partner OML said, “We are thrilled with the response that we have received from Delhi. India is a land of immensely talented people who go unnoticed due to a lack of platforms that bring them centre stage. Street Dance is really gaining popularity in the country and platforms such as Breezer Vivid Shuffle throw a spotlight on their talent and bring them to the fore. OML believes in discovering and nurturing new talent through our various platforms like these and give them a stepping stone to grow. I am sure the competition is only going to get more exciting as we move on to other cities.”
On this ocassion Melvin Louis said “From every gully to every Bollywood movie, hip-hop has made its presence felt across the country. For the last two years Breezer Vivid Shuffle has been scouting for India’s best hip-hop talent and this year they’re back to search for Delhi’s finest dancers. With interactive workshops and after-parties, this season only promises to get the talent to live life in more colours!” said Melvin Louis, acclaimed choreographer and Breezer Vivid Shuffle workshop coach.
The third edition of Shuffle has gotten bigger and better with 6 regional rounds, 1 international round, 4 cypher rounds, 20 workshops, 10 afterparties and 1 grand finale – all across 10 cities in India and 1 international destination! You too can win big and be crowned the next B-boying queen or be the next Popping Prince!
