Today we’d like to introduce you to Jeremiah Perkins.
Jeremiah, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
Dance became my passion at a very young age. I often hear my mom tell the story of how I would not talk, but I would dance. I’ve always loved music and even learned my school work to music, songs, and beats. Dance was my way of expression. I did not really start to speak until I was five years old. My mom put me through therapy, and they even told her to learn sign language to communicate with me. Well, if you know my mom, you know that was unacceptable. So my grandmother, mom, and her closest friends came up with the idea to teach me everything through songs.
It started to work and I would dance the entire time. Ironically, my mother tried to put me in sports, but I was not interested at all. It was all about dance and the beat of the music. The first time I knew this was something I wanted to do, was at my elementary school. They had a boys step team and we performed in Stockbridge, GA. There were so many people there and we won first place. After that, I knew I had to dance. My family pushed me so much that soon it was not only about dance. It was about vision, creating, and developing. At every step of my life, from Art of Confidence or AOC to Dance 4 Your Life or D4YL, and ATLA Connect or ATLA Entertainment Studios, I received an impartation that has led to who I am today. I don’t only desire to dance, but I am an Influencer, Entertainer, Content Creator, and Visionary.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
No, it absolutely has not been a smooth road. But to whom much is given, much will be required. The one thing about a path is it will evolve and develop as you do. It brought me to a place of understanding the energy around me and how important it is to be sure the people in my life are aligned with me and are on the same path to greatness.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am known for my business PerkProductions. At the age of 17, I do it all. If you need a choreographer for different genres, I am your creator. I am also a videographer, music editor, photographer, and creative director. When you work with me, anything is will be possible. There is a way and be sure you will receive great customer service for a great price. I have a clothing line that will launch this year, PerkMerch. Perk stands for Positive Energy Raise the Kingdom. It is all about surrounding yourself with positive energy. You are the Kingdom and when your vibrational energy is high, it means you rise. I am proud that at such an early age, I’ve had the opportunity to work with an amazing artist and TV networks. Ultimately, I am proud of my growth and who I am.
Have you learned any interesting or important lessons due to the Covid-19 Crisis?
Yes, I learned lessons about me and how important it is to be in tune with yourself. Before the pandemic, I did it for others. Now, I am doing it for myself. I learned that you have to adapt and have more than one area of life to support you. When you stay in tune with yourself, it becomes easier.
