Activated Dance Experience - Performance

Dancer

Meet Jojo, a dancing dynamo with a corporate past, and the dedicated founder of

Mojo Dance studio. Her mission? To bring the joy, connection and therapeutic

benefits of dance to everyone!

Jojo’s journey started at the age of six, dancing her way through any dance her

parents would sign her up for— she’s since spent a lifetime exploring and building an

authentic love for a myriad of styles.

After obtaining degrees in law and business, Jojo spent nearly a decade in the

corporate world. However, battling depression and anxiety, and feeling restless and

disconnected from the monotonous 9-5 routine prompted her to begin teaching

dance (including dance therapy) part-time, using movement to create relief for both

herself and for others.

Today, she stands at the forefront of Mojo Dance, championing the capacity of dance

and community to inspire change. In our post-pandemic world, Jojo recognises the

heightened desire for unity and inclusion, which is exactly what Mojo Dance

provides. It's more than just a studio - it's a diverse, energetic community where

dance is accessible, liberating, and a whole lot of fun. Guided by the belief that

dance is for EVERYONE, Jojo ensures her studio is open to all, regardless of dance

ability, race, background, sexual identity, religion, or age.

She may not have envisioned herself at the helm of a dance studio, yet there's not a

single day she regrets it. Jojo’s journey is testament to the transformative impact

dance can have, a journey she invites everyone to join.
