Imani Frazer (she/her) began her training in Colorado Springs, CO at Barbara Ellis Studio of Dance before moving to Arizona to study at Tucson Dance Academy and Club Dance Studio. Graduating with a BFA in dance from NYU Tisch in May 2024 under the direction of Pamela Pietro, she has had the opportunity to perform works by Andrea Miller, Kyle Abraham, Sophia Nappi / KOMOCO, and Gibney Company. Imani is hungry for new experiences and has completed Orsolina 28, Hubbard Street Summer Dance Intensive, Alvin Ailey Professional Division Intensive, and participated in the B12 Summer Festival which allowed her to study the repertoire of Crystal Pite, Marco Goecke, Ohad Naharin, Nacho Duato, Emma Portner, Alvin Ailey, Jermaine Spivey & Spenser Theberge, and Azure Barton. She has been nominated for the prestigious Princess Grace Award and has had her choreography showcased at the Mark Morris ChoreoLab in New York. With a love for performing and the creation process, Imani is beyond excited and grateful to be joining Ballet BC as an Emerging Artist this season.
