Yes!...Black Ballet History...
is 'So Demanding!'
We now remember, and say the name...
...Rishan Benjamin!
Born in London, Rishan cut her teeth at
the Central School of Ballet. Later she
joined the Scottish Ballet, where she
did a digital film series and performed
in other Media, admitting that she
likes The Crucible the best!
"She Shines The Light!"
Rishan has a mid-upper-lip
Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus)
called "The Pretty One!"
Black Ballet History Month,
celebrated each year in August, 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,
