Skyla Schreter

Dance and Visual Artist

Born and raised in New York, I have worked as a professional dancer for Boston Ballet and most recently, for 6 years at San Francisco Ballet. I attended the School of American Ballet in New York City for my formal dance training. During my ballet career in San Francisco working with renowned dance artists, musicians and designers, I cultivated my artistic inspiration and began developing my own choreographic voice. Now, as an independent choreographer and multi-disciplinary artist, I have relocated back to my roots in New York to develop my body of work- synthesizing multiple mediums to expand boundaries in ballet. Working primarily in dance, paint and film, I have created performance, media and visual art on both coasts, as well as internationally. In addition to my work as a creator, I feel privileged to get to share my ideas and experience with students of various backgrounds. I have enjoyed teaching opportunities ranging from assistant teaching at the School of American Ballet, to teaching students of all ages in ballet and choreography workshops, for the Scarsdale Ballet School in Westchester, NY and the San Francisco Ballet Trainee Program.
