⚽️ WORLD CUP TAP DANCE CELEBRATION FEATURE ⚽️

🇦🇺 From AUSTRALIA: Garry Stocks 🇺🇸

👞 @garry_stocks ⚽️

Australia, also in Group D, is playing against the USA as we speak.

Garry Stocks is a Melbourne-based tap dance artist. Whether it be teaching, performing, or creating new work, he welcomes them equally with passion, dedication, and artistic freedom. His dance journey began in the little country town of Bathurst in New South Wales, and since then he has spent his life surrounded by dance. Initially, he was drawn to the fascinating world of tap dance and began his training as a 7-year-old with the Les Griffiths Tap Dancing Syllabus. As the years went on, he began exploring any style of dance he could participate in, and ballet became a new challenge and artistic expression he wanted to explore to its fullest.

Garry decided to move to Melbourne at the age of 15 to study at @theaustralianballetschool and after graduating, in 2005 he joined @ausballet, under the direction of David McAllister AC. Garry has performed on iconic stages all around the world, including NYC, London, Paris, and Tokyo, Shanghai and Auckland, as well as home stages such as the Sydney Opera House and Melbourne’s State Theatre. After 10 years performing with @ausballet, he has returned to his first dance style in which he now finds himself focused on bringing deep and impactful percussive dance work to the stage and educating the next generation of passionate artists.

His career with The Australian Ballet allowed him to dance both modern and classical works by some of the world’s leading choreographers such as Graeme Murphy AO, Jiri Kylian, Alexei Ratmansky, Krzysztof Pastor, Rudolf Nureyev, Stanton Welch, John Cranko and Kenneth Macmillan.
