Jaïra Joy, an 18-year-old from Maastricht, has become the world champion in street dance, as reported by De Limburger.
She won the Red Bull Dance Your Style World Final at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, performing in front of 10,000 spectators. Joy is the first female Dutch dancer to claim the title.
This year's final was notable for being the first time all 16 finalists were women. In the final, Joy competed against reigning world champion Waackxxxy, also known as Si Yeon, from South Korea.
I feel truly insane that I am world champion and that I got to represent our small country on this huge stage.
Joy's victory is a historic moment, as she represented the Netherlands against talented dancers from countries like the USA, Japan, and Korea.
