🍎 Simula at Wakas World Tour 2025: North America Leg Recap 🐍
A life-changing experience to say the least. @officialsb19 is trailblazing the globalization of P-Pop exposure and showcasing the beauty of our culture to everyone. Selling out all 7 shows in North America is such a grand feat and I have an incomprehensible amount of gratitude to express for being part of the process. From being a rehearsal director to choreographing a section for the tour set, I have been truly living on cloud nine as I get to go back to my roots of being a Filipino. It was an absolute honor to be part of the dance team for the US leg of the tour.
To the boys of SB19, thank you for not only welcoming us dancers as coworkers but as friends with our interactions and hangouts. Cheers to more memories!
To the dancers of U5, thank you for trusting my direction and thank you for all the wonderful memories. This is definitely not the last time I’ll be seeing y’all and I know that the friendships made will last a lifetime. To think, most of us didn’t know each other until the first rehearsal.
To @1zentertainment.ph , thank you for having me be part of SB19’s story in the states. I’ve always felt guilty for being a bit detached from my roots due to my move to the US at such an early age but this whole production has given me so much inspiration and motivation to continue learning about my culture. More than ever, I am so proud to be a Filipino.
And last but not least, to Gino, thank you for changing my life. Meeting you at TikTok headquarters when I had to speak for Filipino-American History Month was no coincidence. Our paths crossed for a reason and I am forever happy that you are a light in my life.
Thank you to all the A’TIN who have shown us your life inside and outside the North America shows. I hope to see y’all soon! This is only the beginning. ✨

“Say My Name” @destinyschild@beyonce@kellyrowland@letoyaluckett@iamlatavia
Quick session before I leave California for a bit! Thanks to these heavy hitters for being so wonderful and amazing. They’re definitely the ones to watch here.
I realized that I teach more advanced pieces outside of my residency at Offstage so sessions have been quite the creative outlet. If you’re ever interested in hopping in one, let me know… 🔮🧑🧒

“Yiken (Certified)” @pricelessdaroc
Had to get a session in after Vibe, so of course: let’s get the most texturized dancers and do the complete opposite of what they’re used to! Just kidding, but definitely wanted to do something more chill and fun this time around to decompress.
Huge shoutout to these guys for being down and for labbing some of the choreography with me. To many more sessions this year! 🕺🪩

@altaerevents 2026
Thank you to the wonderful staff at Altaer for having me co-host the worship night with Pastor Albert. It was such a blast and to see families from all around Southern California come together for a night of worship, dance, and song was amazing.
Huge shoutout to @danielan0 , @katiepaak , and @leejasonn_ for trusting me with managing the flow and energy direction of the event. And to all the performers and staff, you have all magnified His light on stage and made it a night to truly remember. ✝️✨

“Until the End of Time” @justintimberlake@beyonce
Thank you to @909dt for having me come out to teach as part of their Winter Workshop series! With everything going on in my life, I’m glad I was able to connect with everyone and slow it down for the one time. Had to splice another angle for the beginning because the footage got cut off for the second view but we make do! 💤⏰
