Meet Joy…
Joy Smith’s journey began in the city of Oakland, California, where her love for dance was ignited. Her roots in hip-hop dance paved the way for an enriching tapestry of dance styles. Over the years, her dance journey blossomed, incorporating entry-level ballet, jazz, modern, contemporary, and liturgical dance.
Through this intricate fusion, Joy discovered her profound connection to the Father through the ministry and art of praise dance, later shifting into prophetic dance and movement. Not only is Joy a dancer; she is a mentor, coach, and teacher. In the realm of prophetic dance, she imparts her wisdom in both group settings and one-on-one sessions. Her true passion lies in unlocking the unique giftings within each individual, guiding them to fully realize and embrace their identity in Christ.
As a minister of dance, Joy has been blessed to share her ministry throughout the US at various conferences, events, and churches. Joy is passionate about seeing others go deeper in their relationship with the Lord, inviting them to experience the presence and power of God through worship.
Joy’s influence also extends into the marketplace, where she currently serves as a Realtor. Her previous leadership roles in various non-profits, serving as a Project Manager, Case Manager, and Service Coordinator, were marked by advocacy for the vulnerable, particularly those experiencing homelessness and victims of human trafficking. Joy’s heart is forever inclined toward the marginalized and voiceless.
In her life, Joy acknowledges that it was the hand of God that has opened doors for her, both in the marketplace and ministry. Whether through dance, business, or everyday life, Joy endeavors to reveal the love and power of Jesus Christ, as it is her fervent desire to draw people to Him.
