Black Ballet History Month!...Balletist Of The Week!...Aminah L. Ahmad!

 

Yes!...Black Ballet History... 

...is 'So OMGosh!'

We remember, and say the name...

...Aminah L. Ahmad!

Aminah got her 'Stars and Stripes' the ol' 

fashioned way...she earned them! She 

also possesses the very rare bragging 

rights to being one of the Founding 

Members and Principal Dancers of the 

Dance Theatre of Harlem! After 

refusing an early recommendation to 

'switch out of Ballet,' she put on her 

seat belts and drove nonstop to be the 

best! After her auditions improved 

with every try, Radio City Music Hall 

Ballet Company quickly snatched her 

up and made original roles for her! 

Aminah is also credited with introducing 

to the world of Ballet legging tights that 

matched closer to her own African

skin colour!

"Your Performances are Addictive!"

Aminah has a mid-upper-lip

Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus)

called "Always First!"
