Mr. Scott
Mr. Scott, Ballet Instructor, is a part of the Dance Conservatory’s Instructor Development Program. He oversees the instruction for Ballet A & B, Pre-Pointe/Pointe, and Adult Ballet classes. He is currently the costume shop manager for MNSU’s Department of Performing Arts.
Mr. Scott grew up in the larger Philadelphia and New York City areas. He has been a dancer for the last 25 years. Favorite roles include Renfield (Dracula, the Ballet), Fawn & Stag (Four Seasons), the Herald (Swan Lake), and the Rat King (The Nutcracker Suit).
Mr. Scott’s favorite dance genre is Ballet; however, he has developed a keen love for Irish Step and Swing Dance. He dances because it can uplift the soul and connect us to a higher ideal. A dancer must experience their art inside and outside of the studio. Learn all that you can and make it your own. Fun Facts: his favorite colors are lilac & moss green; he’s an avid reader and has a B.S. in Biology from Penn State University, a B.A. in Design & Technology from Desales University, and an M.F.A in Costume Design from Indiana University.
“The essence of all art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure.” Mikhail Baryshnikov
