About Jennifer
Jennifer Jaymes has been dancing since the age of three, with a background in ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary and ballroom dance. She fell madly in love with Argentine Tango in 2014 after deciding to take a deep dive into both the technical and social elements of the dance. She has been dedicated to Argentine Tango ever since, studying and enjoying it as her primary dance.
Jennifer began assistant teaching at Backstreet Tango in 2016, where she studied tango for five years under the apprenticeship of Luis Perez (Tacoma, WA). Since that time, she has intimately studied the nuances of tango technique with influential teachers such as Veronica Gardella and Marcelo Bernadaz (Buenos Aires, Argentina), Ana Thomas (Las Vegas, NV, US), Leah Barsky (NY, NY, US), Buket Akdol (Istanbul, Turkey), Maria Zujeva (Tallinn, Estonia), Dilara Citil (Istanbul, Turkey), Paula Emerick (Brazil), Sol Irupe (Buenos Aires, Argentina), Maja Petrovic and Marko Miljevic (Zagreb, Croatia), Zeynep Aktar and Sercan Yigit (Turkey), Joe Ferreira (Brazilian native and Florida based), Jorge Olguin (Argentinian native, located in Vancouver, Canada), and many more. She continues to train regularly with Brazilian maestros Olivia Teixeira and Fernando Lima, as well as Lucas Fernandes De Goes Vieira and Argentinian native, Laura D’onofrio.
Jennifer lives in Olympia, Washington with her husband, Lyndon, and her three dogs, Bodhi, Cody and Kai.
