Ryan Conferido is an Filipino American bboy who is best known for being a contestant on the first season of the television series "So You Think You Can Dance." He was raised in a strict religious household where dance was forbidden. He picked up bboying style on his own in high school. In 2005, though he had no formal training, he decided to audition for the first season of the Fox dance competition So You Think You Can Dance. His impressive self-taught breakdancing style earned him rave comments by judges, and he was passed through to the top 20 finalists for the actual competition. He proceeded through multiple rounds of eliminations, and was one of the last 16 dancers eliminated.

Conferido is currently teaching breakdance classes at LA Dance Center, performs with hip hop/bboy choreography team "Sickstep", and is a core member of the b-boy crew "The City Drifters".
