Brianna Skehan<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Brianna, hails from Australia where she started dancing when she was just 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later she began her serious training at the Queensland National Ballet School and then came to Europe to study for a year at the La Scala Ballet Academy in Milan before transferring to the Royal Conservatoire at the Hague, Holland where she stayed for 2 yrs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brianna: \u201cAs my next training step, I am very excited to be joining the JBA program. Here I will work with and learn from esteemed professionals, alongside of other talented dancers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope to grow as a dancer both technically and artistically in the studio while gaining stage experience and so come to understand just what this career will demand of me.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brianna\u2019s dream companies include the Australian Ballet as well as major European companies like Dutch National Ballet, and Semperoper Ballett, Dresden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the list of works she would love to perform or choreographers she dreams of working with are: \u2018Four Solitudes\u2019<\/em> by Crystal Site, \u2018Blake Works’<\/em> by William Forsythe & \u2018Clowns\u2019<\/em> by Hofesh Shechter. These are choreographers she admires and in this way she would be able to explore the boundaries between classical and contemporary ballet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also Christopher Wheeldon and Jiri Kylian are greatly respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside the studio, Brianna enjoys reading, listening to music, cooking and craft hobbies such as colouring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
