Hello all and welcome to my blog!
My name is Kristen Segin and I am a corps de ballet dancer with the New York City Ballet. The New York City Ballet is one of the top tier ballet companies in the United States and all over the world. Our founding choreographers were George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins and our repertory includes works by many famous choreographers including Alexi Ratmansky, Christopher Wheeldon, and our resident choreographer Justin Peck. I adore dancing with this company, because we are in the forefront of new developments within the world of ballet, and we are not afraid to push existing boundaries.
With this blog, I hope to use my unique knowledge of this world to break old ballet stereotypes (the tiara and pink tutu) and open your minds to a new way of thinking about this crazy, glamorous art form. We will discuss trending choreographers, ballerina influencers, diversity of the art form, performance reviews, the ath-leisure trend, fashion house designers, stage makeup and other topics of the like. I hope to use my unique perspective as a dancer in this world to keep you constantly informed and en pointe (I am so sorry for the ballet pun, but I couldn't help myself). Please join in the discussion!
