Jenasyn Baker began dance and gymnastic classes at age 8 in Richmond, MO at Shapes Dance and Acro. From ages 11 to 18, she danced competitively at competitions such as Groove, Talent on Parade, BravO, and Stage One. During these years, she studied the styles of acrobatics, ballet, contemporary, improv, jazz, and lyrical. She performs in numerous recitals and attended many outside workshops. Jenasyn was also a member of the STAR Leadership program. Her favorite memory was performing on a Carnival Cruise ship in July 2016. After graduating high school in 2018, Jenasyn took a hiatus from dance to study Journalism at the University of Missouri - Columbia. Before her junior year of college, she transferred to Missouri Valley College in Marshall, MO to major in English and minor in Dance.
