LUIS JESUS has been dancing all his life, and is a huge fan of Michel Jackson.  When he first heard Michael Jackson at age five, he started to copy his signature moves, dancing at school.  He has always been fascinated with Jazz and Hip Hop culture.  As a teenager he started to study Jazz and Funk, then Hip-Hop and Modern, and eventually became a leader of a Hip-Hop crew, organizing dance events, parties, battles and dance competitions all around his native Portugal.  Five years ago he started one of Portugal's largest dance schools and also became the President of the company's dance teams.  SOUL was made up of 200 dancers and toured all over Portugal.  The company's hip-hop crew, DEEP SOUL competed and won in International Hip-Hop competitions, with Luis choreographing all of their routines.  He has worked with such celebrated choreographers as Dante Harper (You Got Served), Patrick Cheen (Justin Timberlake Tours) and Jermaine Brown.  Recent events and commericals include:  MTV European Music Awards; Rock in Rio/Portugal; SPIRIT 2XS; CATS Europe: Moulin Rouge and America's Best Dance Crew. 

As a professional dancer and choreographer Luis still considers himself a student with so much to learn and share.  He strives to give back the same feeling of love and satisfaction that dance has given him to the dance world while continuing on this wonderful journey.
