A Masterclass with JaQuel Knight

Sharjah Performing Arts Academy (SPAA) is honoured to host critically acclaimed, award-winning celebrity choreographer JaQuel Knight for an exclusive dance Masterclass. JaQuel is a Director, Creative Director, Entrepreneur, and Choreographer known for creating some of the most memorable moments in dance and entertainment history.

His rise to global recognition came at the age of 18, when he created the choreography for Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It),” which has since accumulated over 905 million views on YouTube and become one of the most iconic videos of the 21st century.

As a choreographer and creative visionary, JaQuel has lent his creative expertise to culture-shifting projects such as Beyoncé’s “Black Is King” film for Disney+ and “Homecoming” documentary for Netflix, the Shakira Super Bowl Halftime performance with Jennifer Lopez, and Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion’s “WAP” video. 

Artists ranging from Marshmello, to pop legends like Cher and Britney Spears, to singer-songwriter stars like The Chicks, Miley Cyrus, Pink, Zara Larsson, Victoria Monét and Ben Platt, to hip-hop powerhouses like Pharrell, N*E*R*D, and Big Sean have all enlisted the help of JaQuel to utilize his impeccable vision and ability to innovate groundbreaking concepts that the world has never seen before. Most recently, his choreography to Megan Thee Stallion’s “Body” spurred a buzz-worthy TikTok trend to Adele’s “Water Under the Bridge.” Nothing JaQuel does falls short of iconic, viral moments in pop culture.
