CHLOÉ CAILLET

Having been taken to a live drumming circle in Central Park, New York by her father, Chloé fell in love with music as a means of expressing herself, favoring an improvisational style. Self–taught, but always determined, she has had to Push The Boundaries of her art in a male–dominated industry and is a passionate about advocating for mental health support for fellow Djs as they travel the world. Now a rising global nightlife icon, she is a DJ, producer, and a multi-instrumentalist. Her range is as eclectic as her taste–the DC-10 resident has played the world’s biggest clubs and stages, headlined festivals and underground club nights alike, and remains the pulse of the fashion world.

JAXON WILLARD

Hailing from Utah, America, Jaxon first discovered dance when his sister invited him to an after– school ballroom class. Instantly, he was hooked. Despite the challenges of growing up in a place where he was considered a minority – and being one of the few boys to dance – it is in overcoming these struggles that led him to discover greater self–confidence and the ability to use his body as a medium of self–expression. He finds that travelling the world and dancing broadens his perspective and loves to teach choreography to inspire a new generation with the power of movement. In 2018, he appeared on NBC’s World of Dance, he is the current National Top Senior Male Dancer for Radix Conventions, and this year, he pushed his own boundaries, starring as a backing dancer for Rihanna at the Super Bowl.
