Michelle Jenneke, who recently became an internet sensation after footage of her pre-race warm-up dancing went viral, has signed with sports management company Six Sides Management Group.

Nineteen-year-old Jenneke’s unique warm-up routine was captured at a 100 metres hurdles heat at the 2012 Junior World Championships in Barcelona, with one version of the video amassing more than 17 million views on YouTube. The footage has since been broadcast on media outlets worldwide.

Michelle also has this amazing personality that is bubbly, endearing and generous. She really is a sponsor’s dream.”

Jenneke and Six Sides Management Group will hold a press conference at 11am on Wednesday 29 August, where Jenneke’s personal and athletic career plans for the next 12 months will be revealed.
