Vancouver Brotherhood is running it back for the 2026 season

Every Pro-Team in the International Dance League (IDL™) had the same offseason decision to make: build out the roster or bet on the core. Brotherhood made their choice.

While other Pro-Teams expanded their Season Rosters, added international talent, and hedged their bets heading into 2026, Vancouver Brotherhood signed exactly 20 dancers. The minimum. The same 20 that won the 2025 IDL Championship. No additions, no reinforcements, no insurance. Just a reigning champion looking at the team that already won and deciding it was enough.

That is not an accident. That is a statement.

The Architects

Brotherhood was founded in 2011 in Surrey, British Columbia by choreographer Scott Forsyth, who has built sets for BTS, Stray Kids, NCT127, EXO, and Super Junior. But Brotherhood has never been built by one person.

Adrian Vendiola is co-director of the Pro-Team alongside Forsyth and one of the most decorated choreographers in the industry. An internationally awarded choreographer, Vendiola has taken his craft to stages and studios across North and South America, Asia, and Europe, and has choreographed for K-Pop artists including NCT127. He co-directs Northside, Studio North Vancouver's elite mega crew. Together, Forsyth and Vendiola have built a Pro-Team that has won Hip Hop International, World of Dance, Body Rock, and Vibe multiple times each. The 2026 Season Roster is the team they built. They are not changing it.

The Roster

Brotherhood's confidence has names behind it.

Humuza Bazira and Andrew Ha are the only 2 new additions. Bazira arrives as a 2x Canadian Red Bull Dance Your Style Champion (2022, 2025) and carries a recurring role on Fire Country alongside his competitive career. Ha brings director-level experience, having led Knights Dance Co and Pacific Artists Movement. Two additions. That’s all Brotherhood felt they needed.

The returning 18 carry the weight of that strategy. Eldon Linsangan, the youngest member at 19, made his Brotherhood debut at the 2025 IDL Launch Event and immediately set the internet on fire. The "Move It" challenge spawned from that performance and went mega-viral on TikTok. He holds 2.4 million followers on the platform and a Bronze Medal from the 2024 World Hip Hop Dance Championship. Ryan McEwen and Dayton Paradis have five major studio credits between them across the Descendants franchise, Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, and Henry Danger: The Movie, and the two play the Smee twins together on screen. Jon Ray Dy Buco brings credits from Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender and HBO's The Last of Us. Francis Aranton, the first male dancer in BC Lions history, has choreographed for the NBA Portland Trail Blazers Dance Team. And Alo Galedo has been here since the beginning, a founding member of Brotherhood alongside Scott Forsyth in 2011, present for every championship this Pro-Team has ever earned.

Brotherhood is not rebuilding. They are not experimenting. They are defending.

The question for every other Pro-Team in the IDL is simple: what are you going to do about it?
