J.D. is Pinoy!!! Yee-Haa!!!

J.D., one of the finalists for “So You Think You Can Dance? – Australia”, is actually a Pinoy.

Abandoned by his parents at a very young age, he was seen walking at the streets of Manila by a taxi driver. The taxi driver then dropped him at the orphanage where his adopted parents took him to Australia.

He has been dancing ever since. He has done performances for his family and mates and has created so much noise in the Melbourne dancing scene with the creation of Melbourne Music Academy’s dance faculty as the premiere urban dance school.

He has also toured the likes of Ja Rule, Usher, Destiny’s Child and Ashanti and has been teaching around Australia, Chicago, San Francisco, New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Taiwan.

He has really made a mark as a choreographer and joining the contest is a struggle he is trying to overcome with the thought that he’s just a choreographer and not a dancer.

Well, I guess he’s making a mark as a dancer now. I hope he’ll make it.
