✨ KDC 2026 ⎸ K-Pop Cover & All Style Choreography Contest ⎸ Battle & Workshops ⎸ 12. & 13. September 2026 ⎸ JUDGE INTRODUCTION 5 / 5 If you follow my other dance projects, you probably recognize this face. I couldn’t resist to bring Anne on for another project. While training and working together, it was clear Anne’s experience was the perfect fit for our judge panel! Anne’s journey into dance is anything but typical. She didn’t start as a dancer, but as a trainer coming from the fitness industry. When she spontaneously took over a dance group, she led them straight to victory at their very first competition, despite her having no prior dance experience. That moment marked the beginning of an extraordinary career. Following that first success, many more achievements came her way, and she was eventually trained as a judge herself. But Anne didn’t want to rely on talent alone , she wanted substance. What followed was a deeply committed and structured path: 3 years of professional dance training, 3.5 years of dance studies, and continuous development through training trips across Europe, alongside work as a dancer, trainer, and choreographer. Today, Anne specializes in High Heels Dance, runs her own show agency, and works across Europe. She is especially proud of her choreographic work, including choreographing an entire musical, performing with the No Angels, and currently working with the Friedrichstadt-Palast.

✨ KDC 2026 ⎸ K-Pop Cover & All Style Choreography Contest ⎸ Battle & Workshops ⎸ 12. & 13. September 2026 ⎸ JUDGE INTRODUCTION 4 / 5 After judging the first ever KDC, @naya.laur will be back at the judges panel once again! I love Naya’s insane power and musicality, and trust her judging skills, being very familiar with the k-pop dance scene for years. When judging, she is honest, fair and has a great eye for detail, and i can’t wait for her to be back <3 Naya’s dance journey began in a way many can relate to: playing Just Dance as a kid. In 2017, she started dancing more seriously, and just a year later discovered K-Pop dances. Her passion and dedication quickly turned into professional growth. In 2023 and 2025, she traveled to South Korea to train and even teach classes, deepening her connection to the roots of K-Pop dance culture. Since 2022, she has been working as a dance teacher at Flying Steps Academy and Motions, actively sharing her knowledge and experience with the community. Naya has also built an impressive list of commercial and stage credits, working with brands like Nike, Coca-Cola, ProSieben, Esprit, On and Xiaomi, as well as performing with artists such as Ciara, Alice Merton and Silbermond. A major highlight of her career was performing in the finale of America's Got Talent in 2025 with Team Recycled. Within the K-Pop scene, Naya has also made a strong mark, winning multiple competitions in 2024, including Serenity @ KWF, Serenity @ KPC, and the Your Soul Contest, proving her skill, consistency, and stage presence at the highest level. ✨ What fascinates Naya most about K-Pop is the incredible creativity in performance design and conceptualization. ✨ When judging, she focuses especially on foundations, cleanliness, power, and overall stage presence. ✨ Her advice to our contestants: “Try to find a balance between clean execution and character/power! One stands out the most when the other is also present.”

✨ KDC 2026 ⎸ K-Pop Cover & All Style Choreography Contest ⎸ Battle & Workshops ⎸ 12. & 13. September 2026 ⎸ JUDGE INTRODUCTION 3 / 5 I am beyond excited to finally welcome my dear friend @s0phiaha to the KDC judge panel for the first time! Sophia started dancing at the age of 9, inspired by none other than Michael Jackson as her biggest role model. From that moment on, she continuously trained in a wide range of styles including Jazz, Hip-Hop, Contemporary, Commercial, and Waacking, building a strong and versatile foundation. A major chapter of her journey took her to Seoul, where she lived for 2.5 years. During this time, her personal choreography style developed significantly, shaped by the environment and intensive training. She also gained her first professional dance job experiences there, working with brands and artists such as Adidas and Jason Derulo. Her impressive credits also include performing in the finale of America's Got Talent, dancing with the well known crew Team Recycled, as well as appearing on the KCON stage with RIIZE, and performing at events like The Grand Jam. Currently, Sophia focuses primarily on teaching, sharing her knowledge through international workshops and working as a coach at Flying Steps Academy, where she supports and develops the next generation of dancers. ✨ What fascinates Sophia most about K-Pop is the attention to every tiny detail, she’s a big believer in perfection through intention. ✨ When judging, she pays special attention to cleanliness, synchronization, and the correct technique behind the steps, especially strong Hip-Hop foundations. ✨ Her advice to our contestants: “Take enough time to really learn and internalize your choreography, so your foundation is solid, that way, once you’re on stage, you can focus on performing and truly enjoying it!”

Her journey has taken her across the world, with opportunities to train and develop her skills in Korea, the United States, Vietnam, the UK, and China. Until recently, she was also working professionally as a dancer in China, gaining valuable international experience on and off stage. What matters most to Mihaela is approaching every style she learns with authenticity, staying versatile, creative, and deeply attentive to detail in everything she does. ✨ What fascinates Mihaela most about K-Pop is the attention to detail, precision, and the hard work behind every single performance. ✨ When judging, she focuses especially on movement quality, synchronization, cleanliness, and overall stage presence. ✨ Her advice to our contestants: “Be yourself and don’t put too much pressure on yourself <3 Enjoy being on stage — the moment passes by way too fast!”

✨ KDC 2026 ⎸ K-Pop Cover & All Style Choreography Contest ⎸ Battle & Workshops ⎸ 12. & 13. September 2026 ⎸ JUDGE INTRODUCTION 1 / 5 After placing first several times in our last competition, mesmerizing audience, judges and me, the organizer, with her art, it only felt natural to invite Vishana to join our judge panel for the first time. With her special understanding in what matters on this stage, she is the perfect contribution to our five-member-panel. Vishana has been dancing since the age of 7, starting her journey with Ballet, Flamenco and Jazz/Modern. After graduating, she took a big step toward pursuing dance professionally by joining the Dance Program at motion*s in Berlin. There, she expanded her range massively, training in styles such as House, Contemporary, Hip-Hop, Commercial, Bellydance, Ballroom (including Vogue Femme and New Way), and Experimental. From 2022 to 2025, Vishana was a member of the K-Pop Cover Team @deviationdc performing at various K-Pop contests and showcases, both as part of a team and as a solo dancer. In 2025, she also competed with the K-Pop cover group @impactdcrw , further strengthening her presence in the competitive scene. Today, she is an active member of the @hheels.crew crew and also shares her knowledge as a teacher at the @hheels.dance dance school. Since 2024, she has been teaching K-Pop and Commercial, and since 2025 also High Heels. Beyond the stage, Vishana has also worked professionally as a dancer in commercials for brands like eBay Kleinanzeigen and Nivea, as well as in short films such as Soma, Nana, and Das Alte Alphabet. She has also performed in shows like Get Inspired by Redken and Station X. ✨ What fascinates Vishana most about K-Pop is the love for detail, how much work goes into every aspect of a song, from styling to choreography, all coming together to create such a large-scale production. ✨ When judging, she pays close attention to how honest you are with yourself on stage and in your art and whether you truly stand 100% behind what your song and choreography represent. Her advice to all dancers: “Be playful and enjoy your performance to the fullest!!”

In diesem Video wollte ich mit euch ein long overdue Update teilen und brauche dringend eure Meinung! ⬇️⬇️⬇️ please comment Ich freu mich, wenn ihr die Attention Span habt, es komplett anzugucken <3 Bitte lasst euer Feedback in den Kommentaren oder schickt mir eine DM! ❓Worum es geht: ⭐️ Warum kam so lang nix mehr auf Konnecting? ⭐️ Neue Kategorien & Konzepte für den diesjährigen KDC ⭐️ Braucht ein Contest Preise? Ich hab das Video zig mal aufgenommen, hab es aber trotzdem nicht geschafft folgendes noch hinzuzufügen: Eigentlich wollte ich mit Konnecting komplett aufhören. Wie im Video gesagt identifiziere ich mich inzwischen, nach zig Jahren K-Pop Lifestyle, immer weniger mit der Brand und den Inhalten. Ich weiß alles, was ich mit Konnecting erschaffen und erreicht habe, sehr zu schätzen und bin super dankbar für alle Erinnerungen, Meilensteine, und Konnections die wir kreiert haben. Daher ist es umso schwerer, das Kapitel zu schließen (oder zu minimieren). Ich bin so glücklich mit @konnectiondanceevents , mit meinen Teaching opportunities, meinem Job, und ach ja auch meinem Privatleben (war letztes Jahr das erste mal nach 8 Jahren im urlaub wowii!!) das ich Konnecting nicht vermisse, und auch nie nie wieder mich so kaputt arbeiten will (lerne dazu ja!) Trotz allem bin ich besonders durch die Vereinsstruktur längerfristig an die Brand gebunden, und bin auch noch bereit, in Zusammenarbeit mit Meetings, und einem funktionierenden Team, an Events zu arbeiten. Ich konnte inzwischen lernen, das nicht alles jedes Jahr besser größer und mehr sein muss. Wir wollen auf jeden Fall weiter machen, brauchen aber Zeit uns zu festigen. Wir wollen nie wieder riesen Events starten, die uns und unser Umfeld aufs Zahnfleisch fertig machen, und wir alles mit ganz viel Glück über die Bühne bringen. Danke euch, für euren stetigen Support, seit 2019!!! <3 hope to see you soon! alena
