Tony Testa (born 31 March 1987) is an American choreographer, film-maker, photographer, educator and performer. Testa started dancing at age eight in his hometown of Fort Collins, Colorado at Westin Arts Academy & Artistic Fusion Dance Academy. His career as a choreographer began at 16 years old when he made a demo reel using his mother's video camera. The reel was seen by Janet Jackson, who hired him to be a choreographer for her promotional tour shortly after. After moving to LA in 2005, Testa choreographed for Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, Versace, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, The Grammy's, and over 20 K-pop projects for SM Entertainment. He was hired by director and mentor Kenny Ortega as an associate choreographer for Michael Jackson's final tour, This Is It, and co-choreographer for Dancing With The Stars, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Descendants 2. In 2010, he choreographed Kylie Minogue in "All The Lovers", "Better Than Today" and "Get Outta My Way" music videos, and in 2011 was the associate director and choreographer for her Aphrodite: Les Folies Tour. In November of that same year, Testa co-directed the opening of the American Music Awards with Wade Robson, and served as the Creative Director for both Season 1 of The Voice UK and for One Direction on Saturday Night Live (Season 37, Episode 18). His choreographies have been featured at the LACMA alongside Noah Purifoy's "Junk Data", and in shows directed by Franco Dragone. In 2021, he was on the cover of GASP ZINE: issue 10 "The People's Issue", and his photography was shown at both GASP GALLERY and in Vanity Fair Magazine (Italy).
