Black Ballet History Month!...Balletist Of The Week!...Dwight Rhodan!

 


Yes!...Black Ballet History...

...is 'So Fantastic!'



We now remember, and say the name...



...Dwight Rhodan!


Dwight's rise to his zenith can only be 

described as 'meteoric!' Of course he 

began dancing at 17, studying at 

Dayton Contemporary Dance 

Company! He quickly made Principal 

at Alvin Ailey American Dance 

Theater. Media Producers constantly

hound him to appear in their Films, 

TV Specials, Commercials, and 

Documentaries! It seems that he has 

worked with everyone who was 

anyone. Creating and choreographing 

more than 80 Ballet Works...what else 

can be said! 



"He's Dynamite!"



Dwight has a mid-upper-lip

Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus)

called "On Stage!"








Black Ballet History Month was

 founded by Ralph 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 Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a Classical Ballet enthusiast,

USC Dental School Graduate,

and elucidator of elatus labialis wingeulus.
