Jason Holley

"After TWA, I moved to Los Angeles when I was 15 and started studying at Debbie Allen Dance Academy. I eventually started working for Debbie Allen, teaching and continuing to take classes there.

"I also became a dancer for the WNBA Team, the Los Angeles Sparks, for 3 years. For 2 of those years, I was the head choreographer!

"I've spent much of the past 2 years in Tokyo, Japan. I dance for Tokyo Disney, in a jazz review show called "Big Band Beat!" Living in Tokyo has been a great experience for me dance- and culture-wise. I have learned a lot of the language and hope to be almost fluent by the time I leave here. One thing I have learned from this experience is when you get an opportunity such as this, to dance and study abroad, do not hesitate to take it. It is a challenge and a very life-changing experience, but it is something that will work in your benefit for the future."
