2nd Best Dance Agency in Hollywood is….
They say 2nd place is 1st loser, and that sure is the case with this agency! They are better than CTG, but fall short of the best agency in Hoooollywierd.
The Good – This agency has some of the most delicious dancers in the industry today!
The Bad – The head agent is not the most pleasant person on the eyes!
The Ugly – It’s been rumored that this agency stole a client or two from the number 1 agency. Oh well, to the victor goes the spoils….
Can you guess which agency ranked number 2…………O.K. I’m OOveeer this waiting…..
Bloc Ranks #2
Why does this fierce agency rank above CTG? Check the specs honey!
STAR POWER -
Bloc gots the JUICE! Their agents don’t seek the spotlight, but they’re major players in the dance scene. Truth be told, their roster of choreographers and oh so fine dancers gets them over. The hot thing about the agency is that they rep Choreographers, Dancers, and Extreme Sports. They’re located in 3 cities (sorry Clear, they have one up on you!) Los Angeles, New York, and The ATL. The agency is ran by Canada’s finest brother and sister duo, Brendan and Lacey Filuk.
NUMBER OF CLIENTS -
Again, mama could not get her contact to give me an exact number, but the contact did state that Bloc has around 400 dancers on its roster, making it one of the largest agencies in client roster. (Of course most of them aren’t working)!
CHOREOGRAPHERS ON ROSTER -
This is where BLOC pulls up. Listen to this client list: BRIAN FRIEDMAN, FATIMA, RICHMOND AND TONE, MICHAEL ROONEY, MICHELLE JOHNSTON, Ms. Janet Jackson girl/boy friend GIL, MARTY “Same Steps” KUDELKA, & up and comer TYCE DIORIO! – G*D DA*M that’s an all-star cast!
YEARS IN SERVICE -
The agents at BLOC have been in the business the LEAST amount of years (compared with the other 2 agencies), however, they have had much success especially with Hip-Hop. The big drawback is that their roster of choreographers minus Micheal Rooney, Michelle Johnston, and Brian Friedman, can only do Hip-Hop. This is why they rank 2nd on my list.
NUMBER OF BOOKINGS -
The delicious group of young dancers book consistently, and they’re not afraid to tell you about it. Check out their home page which shows all the latest bookings by their clients. The big faux-pau is that their Choreographers don’t book the huge movies that the number 1 agency does….
OVERALL -
Great agency. They have the market cornered in the area of hip-hop. Their choreographer list is MUCH stronger than CTG. But the agency is toooo nichey, and doesn’t have the power to book high budget films like the #1 dance agency. 4 out of 5 twists!

This posting is absolutely ridiculous. Kindly check your facts before ranking agencies. Each agency is strong in their own particular ways. This is obviously biased coming from a dancer who is not with any of the agencies listed 2 and below. If the #1 agency is so great, then why are their dancers fleeing from them and onto the #2 and #3 agencies… Know your facts before you publish them.

I know what I’m talking about. I’m getting the sh*t from the horses mouth! You probably work for TRIO or some other horrible agency that does nothing for its dancers! – AND YOU KNOW AS I KNOW….Dancers leave agencies for different reasons, usually because they don’t feel like they are getting the love they deserve!
You don’t even KNOW WHO THE #1 AGENCY IS because I haven’t revealed them yet. Which means you probably know who NUMBER #1 is!!!!
Don’t hate…Congratulate! -

Hello children.
I wanted to give you an update regarding the Bloc Dance Agency. Someone, (who shall remain nameless) from the agency contacted your truly to set some matters straight.
#1 – In direct opposition of my other source within the agency, I was informed that Bloc does NOT have 400 dancers, but a much smaller base in order to keep them working (My source would not reveal the number). The source also stated that it keeps its choreography base low for the same reason.
#2 – The source feels that my blog will hurt the dance community.
I don’t see how that could be since my source for most of my information is FROM DANCERS. This is what many people are thinking but are afraid to say out of fear of the establishment and the threat of being “Blacklisted”.
Tell me what you think….
