Jesse Catibog

Jesse Catibog considers his dance style to be, as he says, "straight b-boyism." Having honed his skills on the streets of his hometown, Toronto, Jesse credits his strong will, perseverance and family support for helping him follow his dreams.

Known for his signature dance move - the "coffee grinder-torpedo-coin drop-jump-jazz split-chair freeze" - Jesse's style of dance originates, as he puts it, "in mine and my friends' basements".
Jesse's positive outlook and "never say never" attitude keeps him motivated to continually show himself as a dancer with heart. "No matter what anybody says, your dance is you, and nobody can ever change that!"

Toronto's versatility and multiculturalism are two things that inspire Jesse. "There's so much of everything in Toronto," he says. A music lover, Jesse is never far from his iPod and silver Reeboks. He gives a nod to infamous dancer Fred Astaire when describing his own fashion style, calling it "Fred Astaire meets Kanye West - gentleman meets b-boy."
Jesse is excited to have an opportunity through So You Think You Can Dance Canada to showcase himself not only as a dancer, but more importantly, as an artist. He wants to use this opportunity as an outlet to show the entire nation what he and his fellow competitors are capable of doing, and to spotlight the true dance talent Canada has to offer.
