Leon Labuschagne

Instructor

Five6seven8 Dance Studio

After gaining invaluable experience from 9 years of competing on both local and international stages, I decided to transition into teaching. My journey began at Beatrockers Academy in Rivonia, followed by Dancazania in Melville. I then had the privilege of teaching at Dance Junxion and DanceWeb before becoming part of Andy Beck’s school of dance in Norwood. However, it was in 2019 that I discovered my true passion at Five6seven8 Studio, where I felt right at home. With a deep understanding of the dance industry in South Africa, my dance career took off in 2003 with my first competition. In 2004, our crew Demolition Squad achieved 4th place in South Africa at Battle of the Year in CPT, marking a significant milestone. Over the years, I have graced various prestigious events such as the Opening of the Lil Wayne Concert in 2010, Idols, Afrikaans is Groot, Bollywood Movies, and even performed in India for the Jack & Jones fashion launch. Noteworthy collaborations include being an ambassador for Shield, featuring in music videos alongside Diamond Platinumz, Arthur Mafokate, Zubz, and many other talented artists. My journey in dance has been enriched with diverse experiences and memorable achievements, shaping me into the dancer and teacher I am today.Breakdance Instructor13 years of teaching experienceFun Fact – I'm a gaming geekRead our Teacher Feature Here
