Jay Markwick - el Lord del FlamencoBorn in Orsett Essex, England on january 27th 1993, Jay started dancing classes at the age of 7. **His young sister Jazmines dance classes of ballroom latin and disco followed Jay's football practice so he would have to sit and watch her. When she practiced at home he started to tell her what she was doing wrong... He was soon dancing in the class to help her. The teachers were amazed that a boy so young could master the steps so quickly.

They gave him a partner of his own age and entered them into competitions where they immediately started to win trophies and impress judges. 10 months and 8 trophies later Jay now 8 years old. He wanted to try something more demanding his father suggested Flamenco..
