A.J. Gomez was born in Santa Clara and was raised in San Jose until today. In 2005 he started with folk dancing with Hiyas Phillipine Folk Dance Company under the direction of Justin Mambaje. After two or three years into the group, he discovered that some of his team member were doing Hip Hop and made him realize his true passion for dance. By 2008, He transitions from Folk dancing to Hip Hop under a junior division team known as: Movement Munchers under Andrew De La Cruz, Chad Pacifico and Kento Vo. In 2009 he also joined an adult division team known as Wrawsome in San Jose with Jeffro Rosalejos. After countless groups, workshops and free-styling in his home garage, A.J. has finally settled in a new group known as the Chocolate Factory based in Cupertino under the influence of Guino Dalit.
