Jamila Aisha Bridges born
and raised in High Point, NC grew up always interested in
sports since young. Dancing to the beat of Hip Hop, she danced
nights away during her teenager years. Jamila got interested
in salsa during her college years where with friends they
would exchange dance steps and hit the local salsa club in
Greenville, NC.
Soon after moving to the Raleigh-Durham area in NC, she decided
to learn Mambo on2 and immediately joined Mambo Dinamico’s
classes during the spring of 2006. Her fast improvement led
her to earn a spot in Mambo Dinamico’s student team,
Mambo Sabroso. Because of Jamila’s dedication, hard
work and positive attitude, she was also able to join Mambo
Dinamico’s professional performance team within just
a couple of months training with the company.

| Accordingly to Jamila, she enjoys
being part of the Mambo Dinamico team, which she believes is
the greatest Latin dance company in North Carolina. Jamila has
been training under the supervision of MD director’s Betto
Herrera, who she considers a very passionate instructor, since
she first started her venture into Mambo On2 Style. She admires
Betto’s dedication, as he caters the needs of each student,
ensuring that they walk out of his class being a better dancer
than when first walked in.
Jamila feels happy to have an extended family within the
Mambo Dinamico. She believes that this is a group of individuals
that genuinely care about each other and she plans on being
part of the team for years to come, not only learning, but
sharing the knowledge that Betto has impressed upon her.
