Thank you for 14 years!
After 14 years of creating, performing, and imagining new possibilities for ballet, XAOC Contemporary Ballet is entering an indefinite hiatus.
We are deeply grateful to the extraordinary artists, collaborators, supporters, and audiences who joined us in exploring what ballet could become and helped bring our vision to life. Thank you for sharing in this journey and for believing, as we did, in the power of dance to bring beauty and love to the world.
To contact our team, including Artistic Director Eryn Renee Young, please email us.
BALLET:REDEFINED
Classicism for the Next Generation
WHO WE ARE
XAOC Contemporary Ballet is a New York City-based neoclassical ballet company founded by choreographer Eryn Renee Young in 2010. The name XAOC (pronounced zay-ock) is derived from the Greek ‘χαος,’ which means ‘chaos’ and implies explosive creation. It is meant to portray the spirit of the company as they move ballet into the future, while maintaining strong ties to classical form.
XAOC operates under the belief that there is room for ballet to evolve into the 21st century, led by women with a vision of inclusivity, generosity, inventiveness, spirit, humanity, and love.
“The empowered woman is powerful beyond measure and beautiful beyond description.”
