HOW IT STARTED?

JUMPING FOR JOY DOUBLE DUTCH CLUB was founded by New Orleans, LA native, Tamika Williams, in February 2024. Tamika started jumping double dutch in elementary school and in her neighborhood. Tamika, a graduate of McDonogh 35 Senior High School, asked some classmates to jump double dutch on occasion. The response was always a thumbs down. Tamika was determined to bring this fitness and recreational sport back to life in the New Orleans area. Speaking life into her vision, Tamika met some ladies that showed interest and supported her vision. Selena Cook, FOUNDER & CEO of DOUBLE DUTCH THERAPY and one of her mentors, is the epitome of sisterhood and uplifting others. Selena, along with her sister whom she admire, Trenease Knox, encouraged Tamika to search within herself and move forward what GOD has set for her to do. Selena and Trenease, has shown Tamika how to lead with a purpose, grace and humblness. Let's continue to JUMP FOR JOY!
