Although Janey primarily teaches ballet, tap, jazz and musical theater, she also has enjoys ballroom dancing. Swing is her favorite, but she also knows Fox Trot, Waltz, Cha Cha, Tango and others. In 2002 she graduated suma cum laude from Western Oregon University with a major in dance. Her senior year she received the “Outstanding Dance Major” award.
