Today we’d like to introduce you to Jade Christina.
Jade, please kick things off for us by telling us about yourself and your journey so far.
I’ve been dancing since I was two. I was introduced to hip hop dancing at age 13 and started teaching it at age 15 after I became friends with world known choreographer, Tricia Miranda. At age 17 I choreographed the entire routine for my hip hop class that I was attending. From ages 18 to 20, I choreographed for my dance crew in college, as well as the modeling troupe I was a part of. I joined the army at 21 and started dancing again at 1million dance studio in South Korea. That’s when I finally started getting real dance training. I started constantly training at dance conventions such as Pulse, Radix, and Monsters. After getting out the army, I’ve assisted Phil Wright a handful of times this year. I’m mainly known as a dancer and a YouTuber. Now I’m in the process of making myself known as a choreographer. I currently teach during dance workshops at studios throughout North Carolina. Also, I teach competitive hip hop teams at a studio located in Smithfield, NC.
Can you give our readers some background on your art?
I’m basically an entrepreneur if keeping it vague. My personal brand is “Where is Jade?” And my business brand is “Bring Your Everything.” When it comes to my YouTube channel, I create content that inspires others and gives positive hope. When it comes to my job as a choreographer, I try to create stories with the art of dance. I want whoever the audience is viewing my choreography to really feel sucked into my piece. Whether it’s a hip hop, jazz funk, or heels piece, I want to lure my audience in. I don’t want anyone to ever feel bored when watching something I create. All I want is for my creativity to inspire someone else to create in their own way.
How do you think about success, as an artist, and what do quality do you feel is most helpful?
Financial support. People love anything pertaining to the arts because it’s entertainment for them, but don’t want to support the arts. Think about it.
What’s the best way for someone to check out your work and provide support?
People can view my work on my Instagram, or my YouTube channel. Website is coming soon.
