WOD: What do you think your fans would want to know about you?
JDC: We’re obsessed with playing FORTNIGHT!
WOD: Why do you think dance is important to the world?
JDC: Dance is important because it allows you to express yourself in ways words cannot. Everyone needs an outlet for self expression.
WOD: What are you most excited/nervous about being on the show?
JDC: We’re most excited to perform! We’re most nervous for feedback because you never know what the judges will say.
WOD: What sets you apart from the competition?
JDC: Our versatility and physicality. We have trained to develop our technique, style, tricks, partnering, performance quality. The whole package ;)
WOD: What cause or organization do you care about and would like World of Dance to share?
JDC: We have done fundraiser performances for an organization in our area called Community Solutions. They provide critical services for children, teens, adults, and families who are facing times of crisis, ranging from mental health and substance use challenges to domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.
