Hokuto "Hok" Konishi, was born July 11, 1984 in Tokyo, Japan. Also known as Hok or Hawk, he was a finalist on the third season of the American reality television show So You Think You Can Dance.

Konishi is a breakdancer and has also appeared on the show in seasons one and two. In season two, Konishi nearly made it to the final twenty, but had only a student visa and was unable to be legally employed in the United States, which resulted in his dismissal from the program. Subsequently he obtained a work permit and became eligible to participate in the competition in Season Three. He was voted off the show by the judges on July 19, 2007. Born in Tokyo, Konishi is of Japanese descent, but grew up in Oxford, England. He is currently in the United States as a student in graphic design at Santa Monica College.

Konishi is known for his breakdancing moves and was formerly a member of the dance troupe SickStep. He appeared with SickStep in the season two auditions and was the final member to make it through to the Vegas stage. As of 2007, he is a member of a breaking crew called Quest, which competes and performs in various venues in California. Konishi is also friends with So You Think You Can Dance season one contestant Ryan Conferido; they are both members of Quest.

Hok Konishi started dancing at age 5. He attended a dance studio for 2 years learning how to Hip Hop and Lock. His dance style refers mainly to hip hop and b-boying. Hokuto also likes to cook, draw, paint, design, and play the violin. He is so far the only one in his family who daces professionaly. He has performed in the musical theatres Vibe, All VC, Collaboration, and the Sai-Gai Carnival.

Guest Speaker

 


In researching what it is that Directors, Parents and Dancers want out of their summer camps, we learned that Teambuilding and Leadership skills rank right up there with technique and choreography. We listened; and boy, are we delivering!

We are pleased to present, straight from New York, Ms. Ann Fry, MSW, who will be customizing a Leadership Training workshop specifically for the Prestige Destination DANCE! Young Leaders Camp.

Ms. Fry works with Executives from Fortune 500 companies across the nation helping them to develop world-class organizations by fostering the team with insight, injecting the workplace with fun and by using common sense approaches to dealing with tough situations. She is the author of such books as Laughing Matters and the author of seminars entitled "Managing to Bring out the Best", "Lighten up: A Playful Approach to Stress Management" and "Aw, What the Heck....Do it Anyhow".

As the CEO and Dean of Fun at Humor U, she has enlightened and entertained audiences of all ages nationwide with her motivational and inspirational messages. Prestige couldn't be more excited to have her join us in the Summer of 2008 for our camps!

Directors, we didn't forget about you in this process.... we figured our Directors could similarly benefit from her experience and expertise, so we have arranged for Ms. Fry to also spend time with YOU in smaller breakout sessions during the camp, in order to work on similar topics of interest.

More Guest Speakers will be announced soon!
