How Celebrity Choreographer Jojo Gomez Learned to Love Herself
Jojo Gomez is a kinetic, animated dancer. There is an electricity in the air when she performs, which is why it’s hard to believe she was ever down on herself. There was a time when Gomez struggled with body image issues. After she embraced her curves, she made her own dreams come true. Today, Gomez is a dance world star who choreographs routines for celebrities like Demi Lovato, Tinashe and the Backstreet Boys, while making time to mentor up-and-coming talent.

She is an amazing choreographer. I feel like the song gets better when I see her dance to it.

Awww... Thanks for the ❤
I'm not a dancer but music has always been a major part of my life. I love Jojo and have from the start because of the fact that she is a bad ass. You can tell be the way she dances and just by the way she IS! More women need to be comfortable in their own skin and take ownership of their sexiness. Jojo is and will always be a talented, beautiful, honest and wonderful person and I will always look up to her. 💗

JoJo seems like a genuine person and also humbled by her success. It’s hard to find people that like that. I hope she continues to do her thing, she is unstoppable and I am so inspired by her tenacity and perseverance.
I LOVE Jojo!! She is so inspirational, and such a sweet, cute, nice person

What's with the dislikes and the rude unnecessary comments! If you don't wanna see the video don't click on it. It's really just that simple. I'm hoping JoJo will never look at these comments. Her self esteem will get worse. Be nice!

No now the hate comments are actually the Jojo bizarre adventures (a anime show) fandom(fans) who got recommended this and saw the name Jojo without the siwa and pose saying Jojo pose something that’s well known in Jojo, they don’t hate the skill full dancer shown they just dislike how they got click baiting into thinking this dancer would strike poses from anime’s or cool fictional story’s. Also have a good day I hope I said nothing offensive
I just realized Mojo Jojo could very well be a JoJo

I absolutely LOVE JoJo. She is flippin AMAZING!!
I love her choreography especially the company video for Tinashe! That video was so hot! Jojo is fierce with her moves, such an inspiring force of nature! Great Big story, I'm glad you guys put this out for us to watch because I've always wanted to be a dancer but gave up because I'm a big girl. This gives me that positive attitude again to try again. Thanks for the positive visuals!
1:58 - I love this outfit, I love this hair, I love specially this outfit combined with this hair in this lady dancing. Also... She has some serious Billie Eilish vibe I love.

Congratulations 🎉 I had watched all her videos and undeniably she's demonstrated she has the quality of the highest rating choreography. Because no one can ever be a serious choreography unless you feel what you dance. I have never took dance classes and only took basic jazz, plus,I used to practice aerobics for 6 years,and I was blessed to be on stage dance aerobics with a reknown aerobics trainer here who was dance mate with my mom in a Spanish group.
I just clicked on this video because I wanted to see the Jojo references
You should keep your great stories overseas lol

JoJo is amazing! Go watch her choreography shot by Tim Milgram over at Millenium Dance and you'll see what the fuss is about! She's incredibly distinctive & electric - you can always spot her in a crowd.

poor choice of editing by interviewer for sure. Doesn't negate the talent of the dancer or the subject. I love that she teaches and is incredibly supportive to other dancers. Not everyone is. People need to stop tearing each other down and be more supportive.

IFrag PSN She actually is a very unique person in the dance industry. If you actually check out her artistry its very distinct, whether its hiphop, jazz funk, or contemporary. She knows how to dance “generically” bc thats her job, “generic” dance moves sell better than unique ones. but if you look at her real noncommercial work its better than you think it is.

@@alejandrosantos5328 Slow your roll fanboy. First off, I never gave any actual thoughts regarding her dancing. Second, everything you said *could* be true... but if it is, whoever directed this video did her wrong, by not pointing out that she's repeating two of the most generic and overused dance moves in history... *after* she went out of her way to say she "loves being different." That'd be like making a video proving Michael Jackson was the best dancer ever, but only showing the crotch grabs. That'd be like trying to sell Shakespeare plays by only quoting the lines with toilet humor. So either Great Big Story needs better familiarity with the subject matter in their videos (so as not to inadvertently make people like her look hopelessly "generic"), or maybe..... juuuuuuuuust maybe..... she ain't as "different" as you and she like to think she is.

IFrag PSN Iol i was pissed off bc of something that day so i was emotional when i wrote that lol im so sorry. anyways yeah she is a very unique dancer its just the video doesnt showcase it well. one of her strengths is versatility it just so happens that they just showed her doing hiphop, which could be considered “generic” bc everyone does hiphop. its easy to label her as just some other dancer until you place her side by side with someone doing the same choreo
