Jamie-Lynn has been teaching movement arts including partner dancing, yoga, flexibility, and strength & stability training for the better part of her lifetime. Her journey began in competitive figure skating, progressed off the ice onto the ballroom floor, and eventually found its way to Lindy Hop, Blues, and Argentine Tango. Across all these connected partner dances, she believes connection begins with connection to yourself: your own body, your own movement and balance, your own abilities and joy. She strives to create a community of dancers that thrives on communication and respect.

She teaching lineage is primarily rooted in the Milonguero and Salon combined style of Oscar Casas & Marie Riolo Roach from Indianapolis, IN. An avid tango festival addict, she is strongly inspired in her teaching and dancing by Diana Cruz, Maxi Alvarado & Paloma Berrios, Homer & Christina Ladas, and Nick Jones.

In addition to teaching dance, she currently uses her yoga teaching and personal training background as a facilitated stretching specialist and incorporates body awareness and movement training into her local dance classes. In all areas of her practice, she seeks to help people feel safer in, more comfortable with, and better integrated between their brains and bodies.
