JIAN PIERRE LOUIS

Born in Queens New York and coming from a mother who danced most of her life, Jian’s destiny of becoming a dancer was only a matter of time. He was taught at a young age the true ways of hip hop dance and its culture, which included party-dancing, popping, bboying and freestyle. At the age of 14, he moved to Miami and this vibrant spicy environment gave Jian a different outlook on dancing. But it wasn’t until the age of 16 after being inspired by a live performance from Miami’s own Live in Color, that he wantd to take dancing seriously. Now living in Los Angeles, Jian has been able to work with some of today’s most prestigious choreographers such as Brian Friedman, Kevin Maher, Dave Scott and many others. He has also toured and danced behind artists including The Pussycat Dolls, Ne-Yo, Trina, Jaheim and others. He is on of Monsters of Hip Hop inaugural cast members and is now setting his mark as an instructor/choreographer while also teaching at Debbie Reynolds Dance Studio and The Edge performing arts. With his well seasoned style, he’s being sought after by dancers all over the world.
