We were able to catch up with these dance moguls to speak on their individual journeys as dancers and find out their thoughts on Degree’s partnership with DanceOn.
The Knockturnal: How do you feel about Degree’s partnership with DanceOn?
Tricia Miranda: It’s a perfect partnership! As dancers deordorant is an every day part of our lives, for dancers it just makes sense. The more you move the more it works and that’s what dancers need. There’s nothing worse than having a product on that doesn’t work while you’re out performing.
The Knockturnal: Do you feel like social media plays a role in sparking interest in dance or increasing curiosity about becoming a dancer?
Tricia Miranda: I think when DanceOn puts out these videos on YouTube and regular people watch it, it’s so entertaining and the energy is just crazy in these videos and it makes it look like so much fun. Also the videos can make it look really easy so it makes people just want to be apart of it. Why wouldnt you want to be apart of something so fun?

The Knockturnal: What makes you most excited about the partnership with Degree and DanceOn?
Jessica Bass James: I’m excited because what I do is combine dance and fitness which means a lot of sweating sometimes and it’s great to have a deordant that is working specifically for that kind of movement. I sweat like a man so it’s great that it really works and keeps you fresh so you don’t have to worry.
The Knockturnal: You have a huge following on social media, do you feel like your following has made an impact on your business and what advice do you have for anyone looking to grow their following as a fitness instructor?
Jessica Bass James: I absolutely feel like my following is apart of who I am and my brand, without them I wouldn’t have my brand. I give my followers everything, I love my following they are just amazing! I will say to anyone that is trying to start a fitness account or grow their following, just know that there will be people hating on you, there will be opinions but you have to know that you’re doing it for yourself and you want people to become healthier. You have to focus on the positives. It’s not easy, it is hard work but just stick with it!
