Autumn Blamoville is a Queens, NY native who started dancing at the age of 3 years old. She started dancing at American Dance & Drama and Ultimate Dance Academy as a member of their competition teams from the age of 5 years old under the direction of Anthony Borello and Jeff Cowans. Autumn trained in styles of ballet, tap, lyrical, contemporary, jazz, and hip hop. Autumn’s love for jazz and hip hop grew and she began to train at Broadway Dance Center in the Junior Training Program and in the Urban Dance League. She went to Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School for Music, Art, & Performing Arts where she studied Vocal Music, but participated in school productions and developed an even greater love for musical theatre.

Autumn attended Duke University where she developed her own individualized program of study under the Dance Program called “Integrative Arts and Health: Interventions and Collaborations.” She is extremely passionate in researching and demonstrating the power of the arts in engaging with communities, understanding their health needs, and providing supportive treatment in addition to medicine. Her individualized program allowed her to continue to study dance, music, and theatre, along with public health, neuroscience, and medical anthropology. While at Duke, Autumn was a member of the musical theatre organization, Hoof ‘n’ Horn, the largest student run musical theatre organization in the south. During her time with Hoof ‘n’ Horn she served in multiple leadership positions, choreographing and music directing for multiple productions, as well as the President of the organization in her senior year. 

Autumn began teaching dance at her home studio during high school and continued when she returned back to New York after completing her Masters at Drexel University. She has taught children ages 3-16 in ballet, two, jazz, and hip hop. Her love for dance has continued through teaching and choreographing, and she is so excited to continue dancing in DanceWorks in her second season and first season as a choreographer!
