Sometimes until late into the evening when her mom was closing the studio. She choreographed first time at the age 12 for two of her own hip-hop solos in the studio. Today she said that she doesn't consider herself a great hip-hop choreographer, and therefore she doesn't want to teach hip-hop prime, but thinks she is a great contemporary choreographer and instructor, she is also passionate about, and where she has more a stand-alone feature in LA.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnGQ-QkEUx0 JUST BEING WE with Jojo Gomez: identity]</ref>
