Guide Note: Janelle Ginestra at a very early age wanted to dance. She finally persuaded her mother and started taking lessons. She has been formally trained in various styles of dance such as ballet, jazz, and hip-hop. She would spend her time practicing in her garage with carpet put down on the floor and mirrors on the wall.
She graduated from Johansen High School and moved to Los Angeles. She has been living a typical dancer's life with all the auditions she must attend.
Five months later she was told by her agent about the new Bravo television reality series Step Up and Dance and went for it and thought it would be a perfect place to showcase her talent. She practices from seven in the morning until midnight.
