Jaycee Wilkins was born on November 24, 2002. At the age of two, Jaycee was enrolled in dance classes at Club Dance Studio and it was evident from her first class that she was talented.

"She had a natural flexibility that helped her reach the top of her age level quickly," said Alexa Moffett, Jaycee's former dance teacher.

By the age of 9, Jaycee was winning national titles at dance competitions and was well-known in the dance community. Soon after, Jaycee began making television appearances on shows like Disney Channel's Shake It Up and NBC's America's Got Talent.

Jaycee and her friend from Club Dance, Dylynn Jones, participated in Disney Channel's Make Your Mark. Having won the televised competition, the two girls got to dance alongside Zendaya Coleman and Bella Thorne in a scene of Shake It Up.

In addition to this, Jaycee has also made several appearances on TLC's Toddlers and Tiaras.

Health & Recovery

In 2015, Jaycee was diagnosed with Perthes Disease, and is unable to dance for a year. She also has a GoFundMe page to raise money for surgery to save her left leg.

So far she has gone two rounds of recovery. In the first round, her first fixator was removed, went on crutches and later tried to walk, run among other things on her own. But that first round was unsuccessful. So she tried again with a new doctor. Her second fixator was removed and has gone back on crutches. According to an Instagram fan account devoted to her, she must continue to go on crutches until January. During this time, she has once again taken therapy session and has been doing well.
