Jacqueline Poorter

Digital Media Specialist

She/Her

Jacqueline’s love of dance began long before she ever stepped into a studio. Growing up, she was captivated by watching her parents compete—mesmerized by their rhythm, grace, and the way they seemed to float across the floor. As a child, she trained in jazz and ballet, and later rekindled her passion during university through adult classes in salsa, ballroom, swing, and most recently, tap.

Her dance journey grew even deeper when she became a proud “dance mom”—first to Amelia in 2018, and later to Ella in 2021. Sharing the art of dance with her daughters has been one of her greatest joys and continues to fuel her passion for the NJADS community.

Beyond the studio, Jacqueline brings over 20 years of professional experience in fundraising, event management, and nonprofit leadership. With a degree in Cultural Communication and training as a Conflict Resolution Worker, she blends her professional expertise with her love of dance, making her a dedicated and valued member of the NJADS team.

At NJADS, Jacqueline combines her professional expertise with her love of dance through visual storytelling. She finds joy in capturing new smiles, celebrating milestones, and documenting the growth of dancers both on stage and behind the scenes. For her, every step tells a story—and she’s honoured to help preserve those memories while furthering the NJADS storytelling experience.
