Josh Cesan started dancing around the age of four.

It's a family affair - mum Jacqui is a dance educator at Auckland's Mount Albert Grammar, as well as founder and director of The Dance Studio and Boyzdance.

Josh graduated with a Bachelor's of Dance from Auckland University at the same time as his brothers Richie and Andrew.

Josh went on to create the Identity Dance Company - which has won multiple gold, silver and bronze medals at the The World Hip Hop champs.

He's choreographed around the world and is sought after to teach masterclasses in a style he's become recognised for called 'glitching'.

He joins Kathryn to explain the moves behind it, and explain why New Zealand dancers do so well at hip hop.

And Josh will be performing live in The Identity Projekt on the 19th and 20 October at Q Theatre as part of Tempo Dance Festival.
