Dance Mogul Magazine is always looking for trailblazers in our industry, we are honored to present Jerome Alexander. Not only an accomplished choreographer but an innovator in the business of dance. Jerome and his team were able to produce the first dance subscription app, in this new digital age, it is vital that we find new and creative ways to present quality work and engage the youth at the same time. We hope the ambition of Jerome and others can lead to more creative ways to engage the arts. Jerome Alexander is originally from Napa, California.\u00a0\u00a0 He comes from a large family, 10 sisters, and brothers, but has always managed to find the spotlight. \u00a0Two days after graduating from high school, he moved to Los Angeles to train for the summer before attending Chapman University in the fall.\u00a0 Upon graduating from Chapman a double major in Dance and PR\/Advertising, Jerome found himself dancing for Kanye West and rock group Ok Go! in Nike\u2019s Human Race Campaign. That same month, he booked Lady Gaga\u2019s music video \u201cPoker Face,\u201d and booked his first national commercial for McDonald’s.\u00a0 Jerome was off to a great start! His next jobs included dancing for Brian Friedman on America\u2019s Got Talent and Macy\u2019s Passport Fashion shows; Tyce Diorio, Andre Fuentes, and Kevin Maher were also choreographers that year.\u00a0 Shortly after completing those jobs, Jerome did his first campaign for Aczone, a skincare line, he danced in music videos for Lil John and Sean Paul, and he became a series regular dancer on Nickelodeon\u2019s number 1 show \u201cVictorious.\u201d The next year, Jerome would dance for Jennifer Lopez, appear on Keeping up with the Kardashians with new girl group BG5, dance in the opening number for the Jerry Lewis Telethon, and travel to Japan to dance for Japanese superstar Domoto Koichi.<\/p>\n

Having only been in LA for 4 years, Jerome has broken many barriers.\u00a0 In 2012, he booked 3 national commercials: So You Think You Can Dance, Little Caesars (he was the Assistant Choreographer and also danced), and a promo commercial for Zooey Deshcanel\u2019s New Girl; 2 of the commercials even aired at the same time! After that, Jerome was asked to be the Assistant Choreographer on a feature film, he choreographed a campaign for marriage equality and traveled to Tokyo, Italy, Germany, and Switzerland in between jobs to teach and choreograph. A huge milestone and accomplishment in Jerome\u2019s young career are becoming a co-creator for The Dance App, a dance application for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.\u00a0 Many choreographers and teachers have tried to break into this untapped market, but Jerome has succeeded in creating the first subscription dance app with a consistently changing dance faculty!\u00a0 As of March 2013, the app has been downloaded over 5000 times!<\/p>\n
