OTION

Guillermo Armand Blinker a.k.a OTION is an MC, singer songwriter, spoken word artist and dancer/choreographer, born and raised in Amsterdam. His extensive background in performing arts started at the age of 11 at the Lucia Marthas Institute for Performing Arts. He regularly performed for TV shows, musical theater productions, movies, concerts and more. After receiving his BFA in Contemporary Dance and Choreography from the Rotterdam Dance Academy (Codarts), he was granted a scholarship to study at the Broadway Dance Center in New York, where he still frequently works as guest teacher and choreographer for the Joffrey Ballet School Summer Dance Intensive Program. 

Now based in Amsterdam Guillermo creates his work under the name OTION. Inspired by hip hop culture, neo soul music and his afro Surinamese roots he finds himself standing in the middle of the ancestral and the futuristic as he aims to create magic in the moment.
