Originally from New York, New York, Samuels began his dance training at the age of three, after his family moved to Columbia, South Carolina. He studied ballet, jazz, and tap at various dance studios, including the Columbia City Ballet School, where he would return as a teenager to dance and compete with the Southern Strutt Dance Studio in Irmo, South Carolina.

At the age of 10, he had a recurring role on Fried Dynamite on Cartoon Network. After a move back to New York City at the age of 12, to attend the summer program at the School of American Ballet.

At 12, he also starred as "Boo Hoo" in Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical on Broadway, from 2007-2008.

Of his work on the show, a critic for the Chicago Tribune wrote: "But for me, this show was, is and ever more, will be all about Specs, the newsie with the glasses who's charged with the most spectacular dance tricks. If you got a Specs, you got a show and the spectacular Jordan Samuels delivers, even if his name is buried in the cast list. Stars don't sell 'Newsies'! Specs sells 'Newsies'!"[8]

In addition to his work on Broadway and national tours, Samuels has also toured Europe in a production of Romeo and Juliet and continues to teach dance,[9][10][11] having served on the dance faculty at The School at Steps on Broadway in New York City and the Baltimore School for the Arts in Baltimore, Maryland.[12]
