J Setting

Leland and his dancers make an HBCU historically rooted dance style their own in this Emmy Award-winning love letter to Dance and Atlanta, helmed by Fr3deR1cK for KQED in San Francisco. J-Setting dancers bring energy, precision, and stunts to the floor, and the Dance Champz of Atlanta are trying to take this underground LGBTQ+ art form to the next level. Leland Thorpe and his team are on a mission to get the underground version of the dance form taken more seriously in the wider dance world.
