Most recently he was based in Los Angeles, where his career led him to work with the leading talents of our generation including Travis Wall, Mia Michaels, Mandy Moore, Sonya Tayeh, Noemie Lafrance and Luther Brown.

Notable projects are Cirque Du Soleil, MTV Video Music Awards and American Music awards as a performer and So You Think Can Dance Canada as a contestant. Other performing credits include Shaping Sound Dance Company and Sonya Tayeh Dancers.

Alongside dancing, Hani has devoted himself to the art of choreography, creating national award winning pieces and being named one of Capezio’s A.C.E. Awards’ top choreographers in North America for 2009 and 2012. He teaches master classes around the USA, Canada, Dubai, Vietnam and other international locations, sharing his experience and knowledge in the art of dance. Hani’s passion for movement and dance is immeasurable: his unique outlook on dance in life adds a fresh face to movement, and his vision is a relatable innovation of eye candy.
