Meet the Harmony Team
Tammy Jimmo
Founder & Owner
With over 25 years of experience as a proud backstage dance mom to her three children — Brianna, Linda, and EJ — Tammy has been deeply involved in every step of their dance journeys, offering both behind-the-scenes support and personal encouragement. Today, she works alongside Miss Brianna and Miss Linda to lead Harmony Dance Center as a truly family-centered studio. Together, they are committed to making Harmony a second home for dancers of all ages.
Beyond the studio, Tammy has dedicated nearly a decade to Scouting America. She served as Cubmaster of Pack 3 in Waterbury, helping grow the pack from five to over 25 members, and later became Assistant Scoutmaster of Troop 6 in Middlebury. In 2022, she was honored with the Influential Women’s Award for her dedication to youth and community leadership.
At Harmony, Tammy is passionate about creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every dancer feels seen, celebrated, and inspired to grow.
