2018 Winner, Neven Connolly
The quality of shows presented by the 2018 contenders was extremely high, and our judge had great difficulty in choosing a winner. In the end, Neven Connolly won the award for his outstanding "out of the box" choreography which involved huge intricacies.
Alex Miedzinski was chosen as a runner up.
