Biography
Panda Waack is a dancer, choreographer, and movement director born in Hong Kong and based in Barcelona. With more than a decade of experience in the underground dance scene, she is especially recognized for her work in waacking, a discipline she has actively taught and promoted in Hong Kong since 2015. Her passion for movement extends beyond urban dance and is grounded in a strong background in cultural and theatrical forms. Between 2017 and 2019, Panda immersed herself in the study of flamenco in Granada, training in the advanced flamenco dance programs at Escuela de Flamenco Manolete and Escuela Carmen de las Cuevas, while also expanding her studies in ballet, Spanish dance, and stylized dance at Elena Vozmediano Dance School. This cross-disciplinary training has deeply shaped her unique movement language.
Kwangsuk Park, also known as Bboy Issue, is a choreographer and performer based in Zurich, Switzerland. Born in South Korea, he is co-founder of the breakdance crew Morning of Owl. His movement language combines breaking, contemporary dance, martial arts, and traditional Korean dance. He is an associated artist at Tanzhaus Zürich and performs on theatre stages throughout Europe and Asia. His work focuses on improvisation, musicality, and exchange through dance.
Maëlle Omnès (aka Killa One Shot) is a contemporary and krump dancer from France. She began her professional training in contemporary dance with the young company LE MARCHEPIED in Lausanne (Switzerland) in 2016. She went on to train with various formations and junior companies such as Trinity Laban (London), Marameo (Berlin) and FRE3BODIES (Barcelona). In 2021, she began working with David Drouard, choreographer of the DADR company. She worked on three projects alongside him : La Chair de l’Objet (new work, 2022), SPEOS (with the Collectif Sacre, 2023) and MU (reprise, 2025). In 2022, Maëlle began Krump in Barcelona, alongside the Titans Crew. Two years later, she joined the ‘fam’ (family) of one of the world’s greatest Krump dancers : One Shot.
Nahuel Barrios is a dancer specialized in krump, with 15 years of experience in the style. His career has led him to become part of one of Spain’s most influential krump groups, consolidating his presence within the scene. Throughout his career, he has expanded his training through the “Om Rasa” method, allowing him to blend different disciplines fluidly. His practice of Brazilian jiu-jitsu has also influenced his understanding of movement, bringing a unique physicality to his work.
