I was born and raised in the great state of Utah, surrounded by natural gems like the Great Salt Lake and Zion National Park. I’ve spent my youth witnessing Utah grow and change, and I am an enthusiastic contributor to Salt Lake City’s blossoming art community as a Soloist at Ballet West. Over the past 10 years, I have obtained a Bachelor of Science in Human Development, a 200-hour Yoga Certification from Kripalu, and have studied with Scott Moore, Kim Dastrup, John Cottrell, Coby Kozlowski, Dana Regan, Jashoda Edmunds, Devarshi Steven Hartman and Anodea Judith. As a dancer and yoga instructor I aim to connect my body and consciousness to the point where I am always evolving, always surrendering to the present moment. I walk a path blazed by professional ballerinas before me, but I often stray to the road less traveled in search of balance. When ballerinas perform on stage we appear composed, elegant, and alert, but maintaining a healthy presence of mind is a daily commitment. I began dancing professionally in 2009 with Aspen Santa Fe Ballet touring their Nutcracker, later joined The Tulsa Ballet for three seasons, and have been a member of Ballet West from 2013-Present. I have worked with a vast range of choreographers including: Nicolo Fonte, Wayne McGregor, Jorma Elo, Christopher Bruce, Jodie Gates, Edwaard Liang, Ma Cong, Matthew Neenan, Val Caniparoli, and Natalie Weir. Performing in roles such as: Olga in John Cranko’s Onegin, The Young Girl in Kurt Jooss’s The Green Table, Court of Love in Nicolo Fonte’s Rite of Spring, Pas de Cinq lead in George Balanchine’s Chaconne, Sugar Plum in Ballet West's The Nutcracker, Overgrown Path Jiri Kylian, Pas de trois in Adam Sklute’s Swan Lake, and Kate from David Bintley’s Shakespeare Suite. I am currently providing Mentorship, Life Coaching, and Workshops for dancers who struggle with anxiety through the process of meditation, life skills, daily tools, and yoga. Wellness is a prominent word within my vocabulary whether it is physical or mental. Chelsea-Keefer.com @thechelseakeeferpodcast @keeferchels

Choreographer of Ballet Idaho's 2019 production of Cinderella, Edwaard Liang, talks with Garrett Anderson about the challenges and joys of being an Artistic Director. Edwaard had a stellar career as a dancer with New York City Ballet, on Broadway, and with Nederlands Dans Theater, and transitioned seamlessly into working as an international freelance choreographer. His curious mind and love for a challenge then led him to take leadership of Ballet Met, which has flourished under his leadership. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ballet-idaho/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ballet-idaho/support

Our guest this episode is artistic director of BalletMet, Edwaard Liang. Born in Taipei, Taiwan, Edwaard made his way to the US when he was 5, and at just 13 years old -- and after a couple tragic life events -- Edwaard bought a one way ticket to New York City to pursue a career in ballet. Edwaard’s work today is enjoyed at ballets all over the world, so we’re very lucky to have him here in the Midwest, shaping the performances at Columbus’ BalletMet. sponsor: http://integritypowersearch.com
