成长历史：这个以戴白面具、白手套和棒球帽著称的舞团，在2003年成立於San Diego（圣迭戈)，团名典故源於「爱丽斯梦游仙境之镜中奇缘」里一首叫Jabberwocky的镜中诗 。他们最初多半在SD和LA演出，2007年参加America's Got Talent第二季的比赛後，知名度大增，2008年在America's Best Dance Crew以锐不可挡的气势夺下首季冠军。
假面舞客这一团队创立初衷是一群朋友想要展示自由风的舞蹈。在那个时代Hip-Hop风盛行，然而到处都是一些风格相同的舞蹈团队，那些舞蹈者所表现的舞蹈就像是克隆过一样。“舞蹈为了跟随音乐的节奏”和“舞蹈作为艺术表现形式”两者之间失去了平衡。因此就有了假面舞客的诞生。
经由《美国偶像 American Idol》评委Randy Jackson打造的《Randy Jackson Present America’s Best Dance Crew》结束了第一季的比赛，也诞生了第一只美国最棒的舞蹈团队，这支团队就是JabbaWockeeZ。
JABBA早期是7个人，其中一个名字叫GaryKendell的人因肺炎去世了，所以到后面ABDC的时候他们只有6个人。他们多数舞蹈中无论开头还是结束都有指向天的动作，那是为了纪念失去的队友。他们的舞蹈其中又分为有10人，7人，6人，3人。每个成员都有不同的舞蹈和生活背景，这为整个团队带来了多元化的风格和观点。
在ABDC比赛期间，评审Lil Mama毫不避讳地多次表示她超挺JabbaWockeeZ，Lil Mama对JabbaWockeeZ的评论是：「每次表演时，虽然你们的脚步踩得超稳，但是手部动作却异常优雅，这是你们与众不同的特点，也是我爱JabbaWockeeZ的原因。」
假面舞客这个创意来自于Joseph Larot, Kevin Brewer和Phil Tayag三个人。
当时整个团队还包括另外五位成员，他们共同创造了假面舞客的特殊风格。
这五位成员分别是：Randy Bernal, Ryan Ellis, Chris Gatdula, Gary Kendell, Rainen Paguio。
而在过去的五年中，假面舞客的成员人数又增加到了11个。
所增加的那四位成员分别为：Ben Chung, Eddie Gutierrez, Saso Jimenez和Phi Nguyen。
Jabbawockeez原有11人，但由于受参赛人数限制，最后留下7人，2007年Gary Kendell,病故，就剩下了现在的6人，2003年1人加入，Jabbawockeez又变回7人，这7人都是美国人，但5人是亚裔，1人是非洲裔：
越南裔1人： Jeff Nguyen
韩国裔1人： Ben Chung
菲律宾裔4人：Rynan Shawn Paguio、Phil Tayag、Chris Gatdula 、Joe Larot
非洲裔1人： Kevin Brewer

Rynan (RAINEN) Paguio ,AKE'Kid Rainen'
San Diego, CA
Rynan (RAINEN) Paguio started dancing at the early age of 12 as a bboy (break dancer). He was inspired by crews from the early eighties and nineties: Rock Steady Crew, Battle Squad, Air Force Crew, and NYC breakers. He started dancing professionally at age 18. Since then he has danced and competed with some of the best bboys, and hip hop dancers in the world. Winning worldwide events, and guest performing at many worldwide shows. Rainen has danced for many professional recording artists such as Nelly Furtado, Missy Elliott, Chingy, Ludacris, Neyo, Leona Lewis, Pussycat Dolls and Gwen Stefani and has done industrials for companies such as Adidas, Nike, Pizza Hut, Mitsubishi, Anheuser Bush, and Skechers.
He has worked in films such as How She Moves and Step Up 2: the Streets where he showed his diversity in dance through stepping, hip hop choreography, and bboying. He trained with some of the best bboys/hip hop dancers in the world like Flo Master(7 GEMS/Footwork Fanatix), Poe ONe(Style Elements/Rock SO Fresh), and Gary Kendell(Mindtricks/Jabbawockeez).
He always remains a student and loves learning the history of the dance. Knowing where each dance comes from, the style of the dance, and when it was made. Hip hop dance is an evolving dance that has a foundation but leaves you free to make your own style. Without foundation a house will crumble. Without style you have no soul.
"Is there anything else that we should know? I just got married in Nov. 24, 2007. I am a sexy guy when you close your eyes! I'm Filipino. I need to pay my bills. I love hip hop. "

he group gained fame by appearing on America's Got Talent before winning the MTV hip hop dance reality series America's Best Dance Crew on March 27, 2008. The crew has won 0,000 and a touring contract after being crowned as America's Best Dance Crew in season one.

Unfortunately, Kendell passed away shortly before the group's start on the show America's Best Dance Crew due to pneumonia. The six JabbaWockeeZ members on the show told the judges during the Live Auditions Special that Gary was the "Yoda" of their crew and that they were doing the show for him. They have stated, "As a tribute to him we point our fingers in the air after each performance
