DJ Esgrove (Suomi)
Known as DJ Esgrove, Juri “Aksu” Lukkarila is a truly versatile dj. Coming from a long history of street dancing, deejaying was a natural continuum to his love and passion for dance music in many styles and forms.
A guaranteed party rocker, he doesn’t want to get stuck with just one genre of music. Instead, his dj-sets combine a wide selection of bangin’ beats from old school classics to fresh bangers with the only criteria being to keep it very much danceable.
Today, the six time finnish streetdance-champion can be seen behind the decks ranging from underground dance jams to various club nights and events. He’s played in many of the biggest street dance events and battles in Finland and also organizes regular club nights as one half of Ruff Cut Djs.
And when he’s not spinning records, you can be sure to find him on the dancefloor!”

Well if you don’t know me, just ask. I have a world of wonders.
Raised in Brooklyn NY. At the age of 7, I discovered the love for performing arts during his elementary school talent show performing the “time warp” from the Rocky horror picture show. I began fulfill My needs to act, dance and sing at local community talent shows in my home town of Brooklyn New York. While attended Williams E Grady H.S in Brooklyn, I entered talent shows and performed in the school plays such as “Grease”, “West Side Story” and “Little Shop of Horror”
I am also an advocate of awareness in the field of HIV/AIDS. I worked full time as a HIV Tester/Counselor and a Youth support facilitator. HIV/AIDS hit close to home after loosing my mom, the best supporter Trizell Williams in 2004 to the fight of HIV/AIDS when i was 19. She was a single mom and raised me and my Brother Darshan alone. I continues to spread the word of awareness and supports my peers in the community. With My continuation of support from My Mentors Darryl Brown and Jennifer Browne, best friends Dajuan, David and Roxy, I will continue to strive for excellence in My Craft.
During my beginning high school years, I have been introduced to the Underground Ballroom scene where I was able to continue my talents as a vogue dancer and explored the world of hosting underground ball events due to my amazing voice. My Vogue dancing skills has landed Me in a couple of commercials, 2 such as Coca-Cola and Buffalo Wild Wings. My dance skills also marked the creation of a popular dance called the 5,000 from my remarkable win of $5,000 for a Vogue competition in Atlanta Georgia in 2005. I turned it out. I am a active member of the dance group vogue evolution. we have sailed the seas and were still trooping for more. I have been apart of the Underground Ball scene for 10 years the past October and I continue to support the members in the scene. Youtube has opened up so much for me as a vogue dancer. so many people stop me in the streets to tell me of my skills.
