Two TV Icons, One Screen Career: Devante Latorre

Choreography by Devante Latorre

Live performance and screen work demand almost opposite instincts — one built for a crowd feeling the room in real time, the other built for a camera that never lets an off moment slide. Devante Latorre has proven himself in both, and his television credits alone would make for an impressive career on their own: appearing with Meghan Trainor on Australian Idol and with Adam Lambert on The Voice, two of the most-watched talent competition stages in the world.

That screen fluency says something specific about Latorre's range. Live shows reward energy and instinct; television rewards precision repeatable enough to survive multiple takes and unforgiving close-ups. Doing both at a high level, rather than specialising in one, is rarer than it sounds — and it's exactly the versatility Latorre brought into The Manor LDN's Finsbury Park studio, translating camera-ready discipline into a room built for direct, in-person training.

For dancers hoping to build a career that isn't confined to one format, watching someone who's genuinely comfortable in front of both a live crowd and a broadcast camera offered something most single-lane choreographers simply can't teach — proof that The Manor LDN keeps finding versatile, globally recognised performers capable of bringing that full range into a single class.
