Black Ballet History Month!...Balletist Of The Week!...Paunika Jones!



Yes!...Black Ballet History...

...is 'So Rectifying!'


We remember, and say the name...






...Paunika Jones! 



Paunika excels in her 'Job' in the King's 

Court! She telegraphs her fine motions 

precisely and instinctively! To me, it seems 

like she's 'having a party' when she dances, 

even if it's a melancholy piece. She 

continuates in her Space/Time directions, 

velocity and acceleration included, down 

to the practiced nanosecond! I'm so 

thankful for the social media videos on her. 

Otherwise, I wouldn't be aware of this 

'Force in the Danseuse Universe!'




"I Feel So Good When She Dances!"



Paunika also has a mid-upper-lip

Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus)

called "Substance!"



Black Ballet History Month was

 founded by Ralph C. Winge, D.D.S.

in 2025 to recognize, celebrate, 

and honor, with deep pride, the 

countless Black Men, Women, 

and Organizations who 

tirelessly gave, and are giving, their 

time, talent, and physical treasure to 

exquisitely create, interpret, and put 

on historical and memorable 

Professional Ballet Productions the 

World over and to teach and mentor 

upcoming generations of performers!



The Founder of Black Ballet History Month,

Ralph C. Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a Classical Ballet enthusiast and

USC Dental School Graduate.
