A dynamic group of young Filipino dancers is set to make waves on the international stage as BKIDZZZ Official, a homegrown UAE-based crew, prepares to compete in the Junior Division of the World Supremacy Battlegrounds (WSB) 2025. The event, a premier global street dance competition, will mark its historic debut in Dubai from July 10 to 13, 2025, at The Space in Dubai Investment Park.
Founded in 2024 by Christy Angel Gelena—also the visionary behind the youth-focused platform We Are One UAE—BKIDZZZ Official has quickly built a reputation for fierce performances and inspiring discipline. Comprising dancers aged 6 to 12, the crew has captured attention not just for their skills but for their unity and cultural pride.
Behind their rising success are head choreographers Ralchie Mc Andrewz Gelena and Ricardo Daniel Esquivel, whose creative guidance has led the group to victories such as winning St. Mary’s Got Talent and strong showings at BurJuman Rising Star and Al Ain Super Star.
The team representing the UAE at WSB 2025 includes Zireh Athena G. Esquivel, Stephanie Jean P. De Guzman, Angela Jewel A. Omega, Austineth Jaustine L. Burgos, Celine Madison C. Matondo, Leianna Samara C. Julaton, Alexandria Melisse Apolinario, Raphaella Grey Roque Morata, Rhoven Azriel Vinuya, and Chloe Tria Tagle.
As the only all-Filipino kid dance group in the competition, these ten young talents are not only dancing for medals—they’re carrying the hopes and pride of a community. More than a team, BKIDZZZ is part of the larger Fuzion movement, which champions creative outlets for expatriate youth and nurtures family connection through the arts.
Their performances have already left a mark on major UAE stages, including Kalayaan 2024, City Walk, MOTB, and Seoul My Soul. As they gear up for WSB 2025, BKIDZZZ Official calls on the Filipino community and dance lovers across the Emirates to show their support.
