Giovanni Ravelo
Giovanni Ravelo’s first job at BTOS was with the legendary Mr. Henry Danton — and from that moment, he became a cherished member of the Ballet Theatre of Scranton family for many years as a teacher, dancer, and choreographer.
A native of Colombia, Giovanni’s career includes performing with the National Ballet of Colombia, The Roxey Ballet Company, Northeast Youth Ballet, Contrast Dance Theater, Les Ballets Grandiva, and the world-renowned Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo.
