Taylor Carrasco’s life was dedicated to ballet from the age of three. First as a student at the New Mexico Ballet Company and then the School of American Ballet at Lincoln Center, he later enjoyed the entire length of his performing career as a member of Cincinnati Ballet. While his passion for guiding dancers began with choreographic opportunities in high school, it was in Cincinnati that he truly emerged as a leader in the dance community. With choreographic and teaching opportunities at institutions including Cincinnati Ballet’s main and second companies, the Otto M. Budig Academy, Northern Kentucky University, the Joffrey Ballet’s Grainger Academy, Hairston School of Dance, and Ballet Tech of Ohio, Carrasco continues to help educate and shape the Midwest dance scene. He continually strives to create an inclusive, focused, fun, and challenging environment in his classes and is thrilled to continue his relationship with the Otto M. Budig Academy and the beautiful city of Cincinnati!
