Episode description

Jaja Vaňková is one of the most talented, prolific dancers in the world. She won America's Best Dance Crew with IaMmE, was in the Top 2 of So You Think You Can Dance season 12, has danced in and worked with Step Up (the movie), Cirque Du Soleil, Nike, Puma, Justin Bieber, and so much more.

In this episode we talk about the origin of the word "robot," how Jaja had $9000 taken from her in Russia, her difficult journey of getting a work visa in America as a person from the Czech Republic, which country she believes has the most underrated dancers, and a never before told story of her experience on America's Best Dance Crew. Come with us and laugh, shed tears, and enjoy the journey of a special dancer on the STEEZY Podcast ❤️
