A SoCal native, Justin was born and raised in sunny San Diego. Always a mover and shaker, he can't help but to groove when the beat drops. Formally trained in Ballet, Jazz, Modern, African Folk, and Hip Hop, Justin decided to pursue dance in college. Along with dance he was a competitive cheerleader for both the college and Southern California National Championship Pro All Star Cheer team Cheer Empire. During his competitive years with Cheer Empire opportunities in dance continued as he was part of the National Championship Hip Hop dance team. After taking a long break from dance and living in LA for 7 years, Justin wanted to try something new and joined Cirque School LA. As a Cirque performer he performed for Warner Brother's, a music video for Moth & Flame, numerous events with Cirque du Soleil, appearances on news channels, magazines, newspapers, national ad campaign for the WB show "The 100," "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," and prepared Annie Potts, and Adrienne Barabeau for their Broadway roles in Pippin. Feeling like something was missing in his life he jumped back into the dance world and loved what GROOV3 stood for, "DANCE, SWEAT, LIVE." Dance the ish out of it and leave it on the floor.
