My guest today is James Jimenez aka Animated J.
I’ve always admired J for his category-defying style of movement, so I was eager to ask him about the evolution of his dance. We talk about his beginning steps in New York, to his developmental years in Allentown PA, to the present in L.A.. He’s also the first interviewer that I’ve interviewed, and we talked about the motivation behind his podcast Creative Movers; it’s on YouTube and I’ve linked to it in the show notes. This is a great conversation with a thoughtful artist and we conclude with a drum and dance exchange, so stick around until the end!
