About DanceJam

DanceJam was founded by M.C. Hammer along with visionary Internet entrepreneurs Geoffrey Arone and Anthony Young from Flock.com. The current popularity of dance globally is evident by the success of dance television shows such as ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ ‘So You Think You Can Dance, ‘America’s Best Dance Crew’ and online videos such as ‘The Evolution of Dance’. DanceJam’s founding trio saw an opportunity to create a niche video site focused entirely on dance and dance culture. From this, DanceJam was born, created to cater exclusively to the growing community of dancers & their fans.
