MEET MICHEAL OSEGHELE

Here is a face most hip hop dancers in Nigeria might not know, here's what i found from my little dancers in Nigeria research.

Who is Micheal Oseghele? 

  Michael Oseghale: He is Nigeria's most unique hip hop instructor and choreographer. He has worked with artistes such as Faze & Obiwon and was an instructor/choreographer at the just concluded 5th season of the Maltina Dance All Reality T.V show.

      Michael Oseghale returned to Lagos after his National Youth Service exercise, and immediately joined the Society for the Performing Arts in Nigeria as a trainee instructor. Within his first week, he had choreographed two routines, and was made an instructor a few months later. By then, he had worked with celebrities such as Faze, Julieta, and Obiwon, on T.V shows and album launches. He had also choreographed performances for numerous company events. He trained within and outside of Nigeria in various genres of dance, including hip hop, modern jazz, contemporary, African, Laban movement analysis, and ballet. Under recommendations from it's president, he got inducted into the International Dance Organisation's competition committee for street dances in Nigeria. He also judged it's first street dance championship alongside Shane Sparks (Choreographer/ Judge for 'So you think you can dance' and 'America's Best Dance Crew'). He was also greatly applauded for his work as an instructor/ choreographer on the hit T.V show, Maltina Family Dance All, and for his choreography on the stage production 'LOVE IS....'. Michael later founded The Metropolitan Dance Company, Lagos (visit website), an outfit focused on dance consultancy, theatre, and events. Michael is greatly respected by his colleagues, and is responsible for grooming some of the most outstanding dancers in the entertainment industry today.
