About Girl Jams

Giselle Anguizola created the original California Girl Jam in 2005 to give Lindy Hoppers an event where every class focuses on the follower; an event that highlights the individual talents of both past and present lady dancers. Since the California debut, Girl Jams have appeared in the Northwest, Rocky Mountains, Midwest, and even Australia, as well as a host of other follower-focused dance weekends striving toward the same or similar goals. We are excited to bring this fun, inspiring dance weekend back to the Northeast. See you in Rochester on Valentine’s Day!
