- I like to balance my juice sweetness adding water and everyone looks at me in shock.
- I struggle memorizing numbers but I can memorize a whole dance routine and choreography without any issue.
- My brain works faster than my words and it is way more easier to show my ideas drawing with a moodboard than using words. Visual learner here!
Hi, I’m Rafael Santana, an enthusiastic, crafty and active creative. I’m a dancer/choreographer very passionate about fashion, photography and entertainment industry. I’m also a nail artist who love being challenged by art and creativity. I enjoy drawing, painting, volleyball, cooking and baking as well! My last live tours were Bad Bunny’s “El Último Tour del Mundo," Jowel & Randy's tour and "Concert Premios Tu Música Urbano" (the Grammys of the Latin world). I have studied under the following entertainment specialists: Rico Reyez Intensives (2020 - 2021), Karina Ortíz Intensive (2020), FEDE Enterprises Intensives (2021), Javi Martell Intensives (2020-2022), Kendra Mart (2021-2022), Blackescape Vol. 4, (2022), Amari Monster(2022). I would describe myself as an enthusiastic, crafty, creative and active person. I enjoy working and creating experiences that involve good energy and creativity. One of my life goals is to become a person of impact with my abilities and my professional skills/life. I have a strong background in dance, mostly in commercial and live stage performances working with artists. I love to bring different perspectives, characters and moods while teaching in a fun environment to contribute to my students' abilities while stimulating our imaginations together. A scenario can be dancing with our favorite cartoon characters/artists in the ocean thinking and moving like we are floating around.
