BALLROOM COACH NAMED

By blog

Jessica AdamsJessica Adams has been hired as the Ballroom Dance Team Coach for Skyridge High School. She has been dancing various styles for 22 years including Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Hip Hop, and Ballroom and has also been teaching these styles for over ten years.

She started dancing ballroom during her Senior year at Lehi High School. After graduating, she attended UVU where she was a member of the UVU Ballroom Dance Tour Team. While on the team, Jessica trained under instructors Paul Winkelman, Ryan and Ashley DiLello, Chris Williams, Tara Boyd, Michael Johnson, and Chris Witt. As a member of the team, she was privileged to represent the United States at the International Folk Art Festival in China in 2013. In 2014, she was able to return to China with a small group of ambassadors to build relations between the UVU Ballroom program and China’s CFLAC branch of government. Last year she represented the United States at the International Blackpool Dance Festival in England, where her team placed 1st in Ballroom formation and 3rd in Latin formation.

Jessica’s vision for the Skyridge Ballroom Team is one of respect, unity, creativity, and success. Throughout the year, her students will be taught more than technique; they will find unity and respect for one another as they support and encourage each other through rehearsals, performances, and competitions. Upon graduating from Skyridge, her ballroom students will not only be successful dancers, they will be exceptional individuals, capable of success in everything they do.

Jessica is finishing her degree in Marketing at UVU. In her spare time, she loves baking, outdoor activities, spending time with her husband, and volunteering as the Executive Director of the Miss Greater Salt Lake/Miss Timpanogos Scholarship Organization.
