The PROformance Review podcast (formerly The ImPerfect Cheerleader)

Listen in as Jasmine descirbes 3 ways teams can justify cutting you from the roster. It takes some self-awareness and reflection to understand if you are doing any of these.

At the end, Jasmine mentions an epsisode where she interviews Beyonce's former dancer, Kim Gingras. That episode actually aired before this one and can be found here as episode 142! https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/kKK2AuOO8Ob

You all are in for a special treat! Kim Gingras is on the podcast! I grew up watching Kim in Beyonce's videos (think Beyonce self-titled era, 7/11, Partition, Mrs. Carter World Tour and more!), seeing her on tour with Beyonce and seeing her in many music videos.

Kim Gingras is an award winning dance artist known for her outstanding career as a professional performer, choreographer, educator, public speaker and TV personality. “Dedicated”, “creative”, “charismatic”, and “inspiring” are just a few words to describe this Montreal native internationally sought after for her roles both in front of as well as behind the camera.

Having spent the last decade living in Los Angeles and working with the biggest musical icons in the industry, Kim is officially back in Canada on a mission to spread self-love and positivity on all of her upcoming projects.

As a performer, Kim has worked with Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Ariana Grande, Meghan Trainor, Madonna, Dua Lipa, Backstreet Boys, Nicole Scherzinger, John Mayer, Chris Brown, Nicki Minaj, Gwen Stefani, Nick Jonas, Jason Derulo, Pitbull, Pharrell Williams and more. 

She has graced the world’s most prestigious stages on programs like Super Bowl, Grammys, MTV Movie Awards, The Voice, Ellen DeGeneres, American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, X-Factor and Coachella to name a few.  

Some of Kim’s choreography credits include the French version of the hit TV series The Masked Singer - Chanteurs Masqués (TVA),  A Little Late with Lilly Singh (NBC), Lights on Canada Day (CBC), Bouge! (Radio-Canada), Cochon Dingue (Télé-Québec), Reitmans, New Balance, L’Oréal, Marie Mai, Saute Dans Mon Monde, Fillactive and DANSEncore International Festival.

Throughout the years, Kim has gained the love and respect from not only her peers, but from tens of thousands of fans from around the world. She is an inspiration and mentor to so many, especially young women. Committed to making a difference and impacting those around her, Kim has founded the PROFESSIONAL DANCE CAREER COURSE, a mentorship program to guide, support and unite aspiring entertainers from all corners of the world including Australia, Russia, Spain, Ireland, England, the United States and Canada. 

Whether it is in film, on stage, in a commercial for the latest product or through various educational roles, Kim always looks forward to combining creativity, professionalism, enthusiasm, and her tremendous amount of knowledge and experience in the business to help one’s vision come to life.
