Janae began her dancing career at age 5. Her career started with the Somerset Trojan Majorettes under the direction of Norette Simmons. She performed in majorette competitions, Bermuda Day Parades, Christmas Parades, and other community events. Janae wanted to explore different genres of dance, so she enrolled in United Dance Productions. While at UDP she took several classes such as ballet, tap, hip hop, gymnastics, and African dance, as well as participating in their annual recitals. She discovered her love for hip hop because of the high energy and fast pace movements. She is forever grateful for her high school dance teacher Miss. Joanna Powell continued to shape and mold her into the dancer she is today. She encouraged Janae to audition for the Bermuda Musical and Drama Society’s Pantomime as a dancer. She was selected to be a part of the production and participated for 3 years. Before leaving high school, she was offered a dance instructor position at The Centre, where her love of teaching dance started to develop. She was blessed with another opportunity as the dance instructor of Bermuda’s National Drumline. Her responsibilities included: ordering costumes and leading practices and meetings. In 2013, Janae had the privilege of joining the Sui Generis Dance Team under the leadership of Deshae Edness. It was through hard work and dedication she became the Assistant Leader of the group. Within her new role, Janae assisted with choreography, parade preparation, and organizing fundraisers. Janae is an active member of the dance ministry at her church. She has ministered at several churches across Bermuda and was blessed to attend a conference in Tampa, Florida, where she participated in a ministry showcase. Janae always reminds her dancers “to give it your all” and “never stop dancing” because the audience doesn’t know the routine!
