Jamica Zion

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Jamica Zion takes pride in being a dynamic follow and growing lead. Jamica aims for range, not just in connection and style, but across genres too! Jamica holds multiple titles in Blues and Lindy Hop contests from top US events including Lindy Focus, Camp Jitterbug, Beantown, and Camp Hollywood. When Jamica is not social dancing, teaching, or working on choreography, they are likely working on research for their dissertation which focuses on these scenes (that they have been a part of since the age of 15)!

Jamica’s approach towards sharing dance with others includes a critical understanding and appreciation of its history and culture, while simultaneously ushering students to build their own styles and meaningful connections to it. Jamica is a Frankie Manning Ambassador for this approach both in the Atlanta community and as a guest instructor in other scenes. Jamica draws on the professional training received while working with organizations like the Anti-Defamation League and educational exposure via a sociology doctoral program which allows Jamica to deliver inclusive and responsible classes that are creative, fun, and original.
