This week we are joined by celebrity ballet coach and former NYCB dancer, Kurt Froman. Kurt danced senior corps de ballet and soloist parts for over seven years at the New York City Ballet before venturing off to Broadway when he was cast in the leading role of James in the Twyla Tharp/Billy Joel show, Movin' Out.  He amassed numerous Broadway credits before being presented with the opportunity to be Associate Choreographer for the film, Black Swan, where he was the responsible for training and coaching Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel, and overseeing the Corps de Ballet. Since then, he has created a niche for himself as a celebrity ballet coach working on various projects.
