Host / MC
HDI is hosted by its Master of Ceremonies, Ejoe Wilson, age 39, who stands as one of the most influential House Dancers on the planet. His life as a dancer has been documented in numerous films, including Check Your Body at the Door and Maestro, and his work has been featured in videos for MC Lyte, Jungle Brothers, Will Smith and Mariah Carey, with whom he accompanied on five world tours. Ejoe now travels the world teaching his unique style of house dance, which has been described as “The Truth”. He is credited with innovating House Dance through the infusion of Jacking with dynamic floorwork, lofting and acrobatics, a style that has been emulated the world over. Ejoe is co-host of Soulgasm, a house dance event based in New York, and is the artistic director of Beyond Phenomenon, an avant-garde house dance company.

Famous quotes containing the word host:
“Nothing is quite so wretchedly corrupt as an aristocracy which has lost its power but kept its wealth and which still has endless leisure to devote to nothing but banal enjoyments. All its great thoughts and passionate energy are things of the past, and nothing but a host of petty, gnawing vices now cling to it like worms to a corpse.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
