About Jaime Ruiz
D
iscovered by a talent scout at the age of 15 – while breakdancing on the streets of Santiago – Jaime had a professional dance career for over 20 years. He was initially recruited as a dancer on the popular Chilean variety show Sábado gigante (1986-2015). During this time, he studied Jazz, HipHop and Ballet at the Mangosta academy in Santiago. He subsequently auditioned with and joined two dance companies: Abaraxas Jr and Tramax where he was one of the lead dancers who performed in all the choreographies. Tramax was led by Manny Castro who came to the US in the 1990s and found fame on America’s Got Talent.
After a break from dancing Jaime returned to the Mangosta academy where he trained and obtained certification as a Cuban Salsa teacher.
Cuban Salsa is closest to the original style of Salsa. Rooted in Cuba, it incorporates Afro Cuban movements. This form of Salsa is hugely popular in much of Latin America, Europe and Miami. We are excited to bring this to the Hamptons.
