Our Ambassadors agree to give advice, be a public face, and open doors for our organization as needed. There are no monetary fees associated with being an Ambassador. Each year, Ambassadors will be contacted by the TBA Board Chair to discuss continuing in the role for the following year.
The Emerging Choreography Mentorship program has been created by The Ballet Alliance to further the craft by educating our own aspiring choreographers. These young choreographers receive vital assessment, suggestions and encouragement from one or two mentors specifically about their work, which may take place in process or when a work is finished or at both stages. Mentors work with member company artistic directors to establish a process that works best for each choreographer and company. The Emerging Choreography Mentors are chosen based on their established skill in the field, their dedication to the education of our young people, and their ability to inspire the next generation.
Mentors for the 2022/2023 Season:
