AFTER its successful media launch on March 8, 2022, and performance at the Philippines first-ever P Pop Convention, April 9-10, Calista, the country’s hottest girl group is breezing through a hectic but joyful schedule.

Their latest performance was at the country’s first Pinoy Pop (P-Pop) Convention at the New Frontier Theater in Cubao, Quezon City. Calista wowed the crowd with their lively rendition of their latest single, “Race Car” and Little Mix’s “Woman Like Me.”

Many who watched the event live and saw recorded videos on You Tube heaped praise on the group for their energy and their improved moves and performance.

According to Calista’s manager Tyronne James Escalante, the progress of the girls could be credited to their hard work and dedication.

“Olive, Anne, Laize, Dain, Denize, and Elle poured their heart into their performance,” he said. “The girls also appreciate the concern and constructive criticism from their fans and P-Pop fans. They continue to remain humble and work hard to earn the admiration of the P-Pop industry and its fans.”

Escalante added that the management, with the producer Merlion Events Production, Inc., made significant changes in the coaching line-up that also contributed to the girl’s growth.

“We are now partnering with Douglas Nierras of Power Dance to fast track the improvement of their dance performance.”

Nierras is a veteran and highly-regarded choreographer in the Philippines, a dance legend in his own right who has over 40 years of experience in the industry. He is an award-winning choreographer whose experience with various dance styles has earned him widespread recognition.

TEAM (Tyronne Escalante Artist Management) also decided to add another choreographer to form Calista’s powerhouse coaching team — Vimi Rivera. Rivera is a World of Dance Manila director, owner of Groove Central Dance Studio, head choreographer of Legit Status, and ABS-CBN choreographer.

Escalante added that Calista is still trained by vocal instructor Imelda Marie “Marnie” Jereza.

Apart from honing their talent, TEAM and Merlion also expressed their gratitude to the rest of Calista’s team that continue to help the girl group shine, including celebrity stylist Myrrh Lao To.

Calista is training especially hard in preparation for their upcoming “Vaxx To Normal” concert at the Araneta Coliseum on April 26.

“They train for 12 hours, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Workshops, voice lessons, dance training…,” shared Escalante, “They’re training double time for the concert.”

Joining Calista at the concert are Yeng Constantino, Elmo Magalona, AC Bonifacio, Darren Espanto, Andrea Brillantes and Ken San Jose.
