Todd Flanagan
An Arkansas native, Todd always had big city lights and stars in his eyes. He knew at an early age that he wanted to be “inside the television”. In 2007, after graduating from Southern Arkansas University with a BA in Theatre, he made the move to LA to pursue his dreams. While his first passion is acting, after settling into North Hollywood, Todd quickly fell in love with dance. Within a few short years, he went from training, to realizing his gift for teaching young dancers. His charismatic and caring approach makes him a highly sought after mentor to youth.
Todd’s professional credits include Dr. Phil for Matty B, and featured choreographer/judge, assisting world renowned choreographers and industry professionals, Chonique Sneed and Lisette Bustamante on Britney Spears’ Femme Fatale stage show, America’s Best Dance Crew & the K- Pop sensations Girls Generation; working with Collective Uth & Sophia Grace & Rosie with a guest spot on ELLEN; assisting Krista Miller on the Skechers Industrial Show; Autumn Miller’s commercials for Britney Spears’ “Twister Dance”, “Justice” & “BARBIE” music videos for MATTEL; working with Lavelle Smith on Michael Jackson’s Tribute Show in Africa with Jermaine Jackson. He’s also worked closely with Laurie Ann Gibson & Teresa Espinosa.
Recently, Todd filmed the secret project with Kat Graham, choreographed by Marc Cleary. Todd also worked closely with Christian Superstar & “The Voice” finalist Anthony Evans on his stage show for Mary Kay in Dallas, Tx, and was the movement coach for his latest video “Never Fail” directed by Rock Jacobs, and choreographed the commercial campaign "Foodie Surprise".
Currently Todd is on tour with Fulid, ENERGY, & KBM Talent - dance conventions where he travels the US sharing his love and passion for the art of dance. He’s also the new director for LAUNCH II at The Brea Space and regular instructor on The Space TV.
Todd's high energy and passion for teaching makes his classes incredibly memorable. When he's not traveling, Todd calls the Millennium Dance Complex and The Brea Space/Space TV his home.
