TASTE TEST 2026

Welcome! Thank you so much for taking the time to support SNACKPACK and Taste Buds’ third ever dance and film festival, Taste Test. 

Founded in 2024, Taste Test Dance and Film Festival is creatively used to suggest an immersive experience of the fusion between dance and film. Taste Test is more than just a showcase, it’s a love letter to the rich and diverse flavors of our dance community.

We want to spark connection, inspire creativity, and remind our community that dance (whether captured on film or performed live) has the power to move us in ways words cannot.

This festival isn’t just about watching dance; it’s about celebrating it, feeling it, tasting it, and experiencing its power in community both on stage and on the big screen.

We invite you to feast with us.

    Yuyan "Suya" Sun is a dancer and choreographer, trained in Chinese traditional as well as hip hop/choreography dance styles.

    She is enthusiastic about bringing the different styles together and presenting the charm of Chinese dance and culture through more modern lenses.

    Miguel Francisco is a cinematographer primarily focused on capturing dance. Rooted in the K-pop dance community, this is his first project exploring Chinese fusion choregraphy.

    Together with Yixuan "Guoguo" Guo and CZ, Suya created this project to share the beauty of Chinese fusion choreography. The team is a group of dancers from Enjoy Dance Studio who share the same passion in sharing Chinese dance and culture to the wider community.
