Bio 

Starting her dance career as a child, Kaytii began as a Reggae dancer. She was eventually
introduced to Dancehall by Sashi Empire, formerly a member of the Xpressionz family.
She was a pioneering member of Cuban Squad from 2008, creating powerful, sharp moves
during this early female Dancehall period and refining her craft in the Kingston Dance Halls.
Kaytii consciously changed the face of New School female Dancehall with her hit move Appeal
in 2017, as a retort to the body and chronic illness discrimination she faced in the Jamaican
entertainment history.
From that time on, Kaytii's oeuvre has definitively focused on creating moves that unlock a
woman's sensuality and strengthen her relationship with her body.
As a teacher and mentor, Kaytii brings expertise across Old Skool, Mid Skool and New Skool
male, female and Queenz styles and history. She is a highly sought-after long-form teacher and
globally recognised dancer and MC, teaching global courses on Dancehall technique, culture
and moves. Her tour credits to date include Europe in 2019 and 2022. She has also MCed
Jamaica-based Dancehall Mecca twice.
A former member of Kimiko Versatile's Versatile Ones before going her own way, Kaytii brings
extensive experience in dancing with crews and as a solo artist. Her expertise has led her to
judge multiple Jamaican and international Dancehall dance championships.
Kaytii placed second with her first crew Insanity Girls in her first competition (On The Verge) and
second in the World Reggae Dance Championships with Outshine Girls.
Kaytii is a frequent collaborator with her contemporaries Inspire, Smilez and Reda, and Mama
Blazzaz. She has also been a main dancer for the Boom Energy Drink squad, with Darkie and
Happy Feet, for over a decade.

See you there!
