This November 9, 2024, the Red Bull Dance Your Style world final took place in Mumbai (India). And among the sixteen qualified dancers, we found Lausannois Pakissi. It is “the first time in the history of Swiss dance” that a Swiss representative qualified for this stage of the competition.
Despite this feat, he did not win the dance competition. Indeed, as he explained in an Instagram story, entitled “Thank you very much”, the 26-year-old dancer lost in the first round. “I was not seen live because I lost in the first round in a very good battle. Thanks to everyone for the support. I really appreciate the support you all have sent me. I am proud to have been able to represent Switzerland in the final of Red Bull Dance Your Style,” he explained.
It was the Vietnamese MT Pop who was crowned 2024 champion. For his part, Pakissi promised his fans that it was “not over”. “You’re going to see me again. Once again, thank you for everything. It was an incredible experience. It’s OK, we killed that. You don’t even realize what this will bring us. Next year for those who know, we’ll see you there,” he said, miming LA with his fingers. Los Angeles will host the 2025 Red Bull Dance Your Style World Finals.
