Joel Ditcher - • Joel was raised in Minnesota. At 14, he traveled to Monaco to pursue his education of dance. He graduated from Academie de danse Princesse Grace, a ballet school, in 2022 and currently is employed with Aalto Ballett Essen, Germany. • Before going to ballet school, this crazy technology kid did competition dance and gymnastics. He competed at national level with Larkin, Studio 4, and Elite Gymnastics. At 12 years old, he decided ballet would be his career path. • From the age of 13 to 15, he trained at Master Ballet Academy in Scottsdale, Arizona. • This two year moment for him was pivotal. Major Ballet schools were beginning to scout his potential. While competing at YAGP finals, he performed a big solo at Lincoln Center in 2017 for thousands which impressed the right people and sealed the scholarship deal with the Academie de Danse Princesse Grace. • For four years, the results, resilience, and intelligence of the individual were tested on short notice. By graduation year, each student was pressured, or not, to achieve a work contract with a ballet company before graduation. Joel is grateful for the many intriguing opportunities, influential figures around, and growth into his art form whilst in Monaco. • He is indebted for his close circle in Minnesota. His sister who is so smart to keep her connections and his mother who did research and brought him to the right place at the right time for his career and education.
