Black Ballet History Month!...Balletist Of The Week!...Amanda Morgan!

 

Yes!...Black Ballet History...

...is 'So Far Away!'



We now remember, and say the name...







...Amanda Morgan!





Amanda is making great news all over the 

place! She studied hard at DT Northwest 

and NWBallet School, doing year rounds 

and summer intensives at Boston Ballet 

and especially Alonzo King LINES Ballet. 

Amanda then joined Pacific North West 

Ballet and quickly rose to prominence 

as the First Black Soloist there. But she 

is making an even greater impact 

choreographing at Film Festivals, and 

featuring her own films at the Northwest 

Film Forum. Thank her for the birthing 

of the Velocity Dance Center. Amanda 

also created the very popular Seattle 

Project, which premieres up and coming 

controversial filmmakers!


 


"She's Busting Down Ceilings All Over

The Place!"





Amanda has a mid-upper-lip

Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus)

called "The Way!"







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.
