Jumping Dreams was founded by sisters Dominique Artis and Angelicka Crawford September 2017. Being former competitors in the sport of double dutch they naturally had a passion for jumping rope and wanted to start a program in the city of Charlotte, North Carolina. Through jumping rope they realized you get more out of it than jump rope you literally develop important keys to life. Angelicka specifically took the approach from fighting childhood obesity as a child and used jump rope to stay in shape and build confidence. Dominique on the other hand used jump rope to make friends and travel the world. The sisters put the two ideas together and decided why not run an organization that can help youth of all ages and sizes become stronger physically, mentally and emotionally. Which will serve as a tool to build confidence, leadership, and social skills through the ropes of life. Jumping Dreams started off as a hobby for Artis and Crawford which later turned into a career to help do good in the community of Charlotte , especially during the pandemic when many schools and youth organizations were shut down or limited. Our team ranks in the top 5 in the world in the sport of double dutch. We’re committed to succeeding as a unit, and dedicated to representing our team’s principles of hard work and sportsmanship. Jumping Dreams is made up of some incredibly talented players and a terrific staffing team who always seems to know when to push the right buttons and how to pull the right strings. In our program we believe you should dream big and jump over any struggles in the ropes of life.
