Natalie Hudono

I began my training at the Russian Choreographic Academy, where I studied the Vaganova Ballet Method graduating Level 8 with an Honours. I was invited to perform at Victorian Curriculum Assessment Authority’s Top Class Dance 2022 and Top Acts 2022, a prestigious concert showcasing the top scoring dance solos from Victorian students. I then continued my training in Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre’s Graduate Program, where I have gotten many performance opportunities. Some highlights include performing in Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre’s production of “The Nutcracker” (Terrance S. Orr), being invited to perform the Sugar Plum Fairy variation for the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s “Highmark Holiday Pops” performance, and being chosen to perform the soloist role of “Mazurka” from “Les Sylphides” (Mikhail Fokine) staged by Marianna Tcherkassky. In addition, I have had opportunities to work with inspiring choreographers such as Durante Verzola and Houston Thomas to create new works. I have also attended summer programs at Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, Nashville Ballet and Oregon Ballet Theatre. I’m super excited to join Ballet Jörgen’s Junior Company!
