Filipino teen crew in UAE to represent at global dance battle in Dubai

Fuzion Dance Crew, one of the UAE’s most dynamic and inspiring teen dance groups, is officially set to compete in the Varsity Division of the upcoming World Supremacy Battlegrounds (WSB) 2025, one of the world’s most prestigious international street dance competitions—now happening for the first time in Dubai on July 10 to 13, 2025 in The Space, Dubai Investment Park.

Fuzion Dance Crew is proudly led by Ms. Christy Angel Gelena, founder of WE ARE ONE UAE, and originally started as Kabarkidz back in 2018. The crew was built on passion and pure love for dance by Filipino teens Jewel Nugas, Jazmyn Nugas, and Ralchie Mc Andrewz Gelena, who have grown from child performers into powerhouse teen dancers. Their evolution into Fuzion reflects not only their growth but also their vision to bring cultures and talents together.

Currently, Ralchie and Ricardo Daniel Esquivel serve as team leaders and head choreographers. The crew will be presenting an original piece crafted by themselves— highlighting their creativity, unity, and deep-rooted Filipino soul. They are also the choreographers for Bkidzzz Official, another rising team who will be representing the UAE in the Junior Division of the same competition.
