Kendrick Lamar. Eminem. Dr. Dre. All in One Night.
From a Super Bowl stage to The Manor LDN's studio floor

Choreography by Cassidy Ratliff
Artist: Busta Rhymes - Touch It
Location: The Manor LDN Dance Studio, Finsbury Park, North London
Ask Cassidy Ratliff to pick a favourite credit from a genuinely stacked career, and she doesn't hesitate: the 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show, held in Los Angeles the year the Rams won on home turf, sharing a stage with six of music's biggest icons — Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, and 50 Cent. What made it unforgettable wasn't just the scale, she's said, but the way the artists stayed immersed with the dancers throughout production and rehearsals, right up onto the stage itself — a genuine "family mentality" that pushed everyone to elevate together. That same energy is exactly what she brought into The Manor LDN's Finsbury Park studio.
A graduate of AMDA, Ratliff built the kind of foundation few performers get, and it shows in a résumé that spans stage, screen, and choreography in equal measure. She's performed with FINNEAS, Sam Fischer, the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, and Meghan Trainor, with television appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Late Show with James Corden, and NBC's Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting. As a choreographer and assistant choreographer, her credits include MTV's Becoming a Popstar finale, NBC's The Good Place, AIDA: The Musical at AMDA L.A., and work with Lil Baby, Ava Max, and Kendrick Lamar.
That range across live stage and screen isn't accidental — Ratliff has specifically credited her training in dance for camera as pivotal to her career, given how much of her ambition sits inside the TV and film world specifically, distinct from performing live. Bringing that dual fluency into The Manor LDN meant London dancers trained with someone who's genuinely mastered the difference between a stage and a lens, backed by a résumé that includes standing shoulder to shoulder with some of music's biggest names on one of the largest broadcasts in the world.
