Gema Whitford-Joynt

Gema Whitford-Joynt is one of Red's foundation members and has been building the brand of one of Red's top crews 'Rebellious' for eight years. She is considered a world-class competitor having competed internationally in Australia, America, and Europe. Bringing home a Bronze medal from the HHI worlds competition in 2021 with Rebellious was one of Gema's goals. In 2025, she successfully ticked off being part of the Megacrew Division winners at Project competition in Tauranga helping them win $10,000 in prize money! While Hip Hop has been a strong part of Gema's dance journey, she values versatility and currently trains with Red's pre-professional group Perspective who specialize in Jazz, Contemporary, and Commercial styles. Gema is looking forward to passing her knowledge onto younger dancers and welcomes all dancers into our classes.
