Dancing runs in Jenna Johnson‘s family.

The Dancing with the Stars pro grew up with five siblings — Stacy Bills, Jill Zenger, Scott Johnson, Jason Johnson, and Skyler Johnson — two of whom also share her penchant for the sport. Their mom, Tammy Johnson, told the Daily Herald in July 2013 that Jenna was inspired to pursue dance after watching her older sisters perform.

“I don’t think I would be here if it weren’t for them,” Jenna told the Utah publication of Stacy and Jill. “They are my biggest supporters, other than my mom.”

Though Stacy and Jill eventually stepped away from the limelight, the next generation of Jenna’s family has already started carving out their own path on stage. In September 2025, Jenna’s niece, Hailey Bills, who turned 19 in May 2025, announced that she was joining the Dancing with the Stars troupe for season 34.

“Is life real?” she captioned her Instagram announcement. “I can hardly even believe I can say I’m on THE DANCING WITH THE STARS TROUPE FOR SEASON 34. Still in complete utter shock. So much more to come, just so thankful and EXCITED! LETS GOOOOOO @dancingwiththestars 🥳🎉💃.”

Here’s everything to know about Jenna Johnson’s siblings — Stacy Bills, Jill Zenger, Scott Johnson, Jason Johnson and Ashton Johnson — and how she is related to one of the show’s newest dancers, Hailey Bills.

Jenna’s parents have six children in total, and welcomed four before Jenna was born. Her brother, Skyler, is the youngest in the family.

Jenna’s father, Curt Johnson, told the Daily Herald that the parenting tricks he used on her four older siblings weren’t as effective on Jenna.

“Try as you might to stay upset at her, you just can’t, because she’ll do something so incredibly funny,” he said. “The things that sometimes drive me crazy about her are the things that make her so endearing to audiences.”

Curt and Tammy raised their family in Provo, Utah. There, Jenna started dancing at a local performing arts studio with her two older sisters.

“She’s always been a little performer; a little drama queen,” Tammy told the Daily Herald. “That was something we saw in her at a very early age.”

Her mom went on to say that Jenna’s tendency to do “things the way she wants to do them” is one of the reasons her daughter is so successful. She added, “She just makes up her mind about who she is and what she wants to do, and goes with it.”

Her two sisters are also dancers

Stacy and Jill are not only dancers, but they also previously competed on Fox’s hit dancing competition series So You Think You Can Dance. Stacy even served as her younger sisters’ company director when they were younger, per the Daily Herald. Jenna also competed on the show and made it farther than her two sisters.

“It was probably the best scenario I could ever ask for,” Tammy told the publication of the sisters’ shared passion. “And they’re extremely close. It’s been such a positive thing in every way.”

Her three brothers, however, don’t seem to have inherited the dancing gene. Scott has worked as an endodontist — a dental specialist who focuses on root canals and tooth trauma — since 2017.

Jenna has occasionally roped him into her social media pranks, convincing him in one that she was taking a picture instead of a video before undergoing a root canal in July 2025.

Jason also works in the dental industry as an orthodontist, and Skyler has worked as a nursing home administrator in California since 2023, per his LinkedIn.

Jenna was Hailey’s mentor on Dancing with the Stars: Juniors

In 2018, Hailey, who is Jenna’s older sister Stacy’s daughter, competed on Dancing with the Stars: Juniors with the help of her aunt as her mentor. Jenna told Access Hollywood that she loved the “family affair” of the show and how it allowed her to spend more time with her sister and her niece.

“When I figured out she was my mentor, I was just so excited,” Hailey shared in the September 2018 interview. “‘Cause I could just act normal in front of her.”

However, Jenna did admit that she was surprisingly tough on her niece because she expected “a lot” out of her. “It’s just because I know what she can do,” the professional dancer explained. “I’m literally her biggest fan, so I think I was just trying to push her.”

She continued, “But honestly, I would sit back and watch her dance on this stage at 12 years old, I’m like, ‘What is your life?’ It’s incredible. She’s accomplished more than I have in my 24 years of living.”

Jenna and Hailey were eliminated from Dancing with the Stars: Juniors after the first round of performances.

Hailey and Jenna frequently make TikToks together

The aunt and niece duo frequently show off their dancing chops on TikTok. Though most of their videos together feature them recreating viral routines — where Jenna’s husband Valentin Chmerkovskiy occasionally makes an appearance— sometimes they share more intimate family moments.

After Hailey learned she was going to be on the troupe for season 34 of Dancing with the Stars, she shared a video of her aunt’s reaction on TikTok.

“This day will always hold a special place in my heart…,” Hailey captioned the post. “my parents are such angels in my life and this was such an amazing moment for us 🥹 @jennajohnson & @Val I’m so happy we got this on film! Freaking love you guys.”
