Bengt Jörgen

Bengt Jörgen is a co-founder of Canada’s Ballet Jörgen and serves as its Artistic Director and CEO. In 1992, his artistic vision led to the formation of a partnership with George Brown College in Toronto where he is the Artistic Director of the full-time dance program. He is an acclaimed choreographer who has created more than 30 full-length ballets for numerous ballet and opera companies including the National Ballet of Canada, The Royal Winnipeg Ballet, the American Ballet Studio Company, and the Hong Kong Ballet. His re- creation of major classical works such as The Nutcracker: A Canadian Tradition, Romeo and Juliet, Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty are celebrated for re-energizing and bringing dramatic clarity to traditional ballet. Born in Stockholm, Sweden, Bengt Jörgen is a graduate of the Royal Swedish Ballet School, one of the oldest classical dance training schools in the world. He furthered his studies at the National Ballet School of Canada and went on to join the National Ballet of Canada. A major influence on his training that continues to shape his approach to classical ballet today was New York teacher Maggie Black, with whom he studied for extended periods in the 1980s. An accomplished teacher in his own right, Bengt Jörgen is focused on helping develop the next generation of Canadian dancers with the technical discipline and quality of movement of classical ballet along with the enhanced artistic sensibilities demanded of contemporary audiences.
