Apprentice
Nevan Boyden (He/Him) was born in Vancouver, BC, where he trained in the Arts Umbrella Dance Program from the age of five. From 2016-2021, Nevan attended the Arts Umbrella Pre-Professional Training Program. During this time, he worked with artists such as Wen Wei Wang, Josh Martin and Eric Beauchesne. In 2021, Nevan was accepted into the Arts Umbrella Post Secondary Program, where he was invited to join the Ballet BC Annex program under the direction of Artemis Gordon and Medhi Walerski. Nevan has had the opportunity to perform works by choreographers such as Johan Inger, William Forsythe, Crystal Pite, Marco Goecke, Medhi Walerski, Dance Novella, and Rebecca Margolick among others. Nevan also loves to use creation as a tool for expression, which led to creating three works on fellow Arts Umbrella dancers as an emerging choreographer. Nevan is excited to be joining Ballet Edmonton for the 2024/2025 season.
