Serge was best known for competing on season 11 of So You Think You Can Dance in 2014 but also assisted pros like Maksim Chmerkovskiy with choreography on Dancing With the Stars – where he probably met Rumer, who won the 2015 show.

Serge's sad passing was confirmed by his representative Jim Keith, president of The Movement Talent Agency, in a statement released to E! News and EW.
"He was an amazing dancer with a huge heart and he touched the lives of everyone who met him," the statement read. "He will be truly missed. This is a sad day for us at the agency and for the dance community as a whole. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family at this time."
Serge's funeral will be broadcast live, it has been announced on his Instagram
Just two months ago, the dancer celebrated making a brief appearance in Lin-Manuel Miranda's In The Heights film.
Taking to Instagram, he wrote: "I mean it's for literally 2 seconds but I've never been more honored to be part of a project. It's such a privilege to be part of a movie that represents the cultures and peoples and dance genre that basically raised me and I owe my whole everything to."
