Jessie started dancing when she was 4 years old. From Buena Vista, CO
she would come to visit her grandmother in Loveland and joined dance camps every summer until she was able to start dancing at a studio closer to home around the age of 7. When she was 12 years old she wanted more advanced training and moved to Spirit of Dance in FairPlay where she studied Ballet, Point, contemporary, lyrical, jazz and hip hop. She was also involved in musical theater where she grew in acting, singing and choreographing. After high school, she stopped dancing and began her journey on the mission field. After 4 years, the Lord started to reawaken her love and passion for dance. She moved to Hawaii, where she taught dance for over two years. Throughout that time, the Lord grew her passion for Dance as a form of worship. She believes that our relationship with Jesus should lead everything we do, including dance. She is passionate about helping other dancers recognize their potential while also growing in relationship with God. She is so excited to be apart of the Rez Dance Family!
