In the Studio with Bengt Jörgen: Anne of Green Gables – The Ballet™ 09/11/2019

All the best to Canada's Ballet Jörgen for their upcoming premiere of an instant Canadian classic: Anne of Green Gables -- The Ballet. I can't think of a better company or choreographer to bring this iconic Canadian story to life through ballet, nor to bring it to virtually every theatre from coast to coast. See you in Toronto!!

DanceTeq in Versailles!

25 years ago as a young dancer, and after concluding a run of performances in Germany, I accompanied my teachers, co-artistic directors of Opera Atelier, Marshall Pynkoski and Jeannette Lajeunesse Zingg, to Paris while they taught a seminar in Baroque staging, acting, and dancing at the Opera Comique. Each morning I would walk to 54 Rue de Clichy to attend Barre Au Sol classes with Jacqueline Fynnaert, not far from the Palais Garnier. Little did I know at that time how much that trip would influence me as a dancer and teacher of Ballet.

As of this posting 25 years have past, and I was fortunate enough to have had a wonderful career working with many great artists and creators throughout the world. The art of ballet, La Danse, is my career and more: it's the common thread woven throughout my life linking training to performance to theatre to choreography to teaching to opening Dance Teq Centre and making a home for DanceTeq.

This series of mini-documentaries filmed in 2018 on my 6th tour to perform in the Royal Theatre with Opera Atelier illustrates my connection to France, Paris, and in particular the Chateau de Versailles where the Sun King, Louis XIV, summered. As it was by his decree that the first school to train professional dancers ('L'Academie de la Danse') was founded, we ballet dancers each owe him a debt of gratitude for his forward thinking.

I hope you'll join me as I elaborate on some of this recent and ancient history of ballet, and my time in it's birthplace.
