Alexis Nicole Panos is a native of the Boston area. Initially, training to be a gymnast at the Massachusetts Gymnastics Center in Waltham, she started ballet to facilitate stronger, more fluid movement.  She pursued classical ballet training in the intensive program at the Boston Ballet School for ten years and fell in love with dance. In her years at the school, she performed in several productions a year with the Boston Ballet Company and was featured on channel 4 for dancing the title role of Clara in the Nutcracker at the Wang Theater. 

​

Alexis is a graduate of the National Ballet School of Canada in Toronto. She has studied with Chautauqua Festival Ballet in New York, the Royal Danish Ballet in Denmark, and L’Ecole Supérieure de Danse de Cannes Rosella Hightower in France. She has trained in many styles of dance and movement including Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Modern, Flamenco, Ballroom, Character, Pointe, Hip Hop, Popping, kinesiology, and Contemporary.

She has performed soloist and principal roles in the USA, Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Monaco, and Denmark.  Alexis has worked with prestigious companies such as Dresden Semper Opera Ballet, Cannes Jeune Ballet, Ballet Opera de Nice, the former Boston Dance Company, Oper Halle Ballet, Staatsoper Hannover Ballet, and invited as a guest soloist artist at the Academie de Danse Classique Princess Grace in Monte Carlo, Monaco. 

​

A certified Yoga and Zumba instructor, with thirty years of experience with Pilates, Alexis enjoys teaching many styles of dance and methods of movement. She aims to teach a harmonious balance between technical skill and artistic expression. In class, she emphasizes awareness of the body through inner and outer alignment and encourages each dancer to be their most expressive self with character, style, and individual personality.

​

Alexis considers her greatest strength to be her versatility in movement and in life. She is grateful to have studied with numerous international teachers and to have danced everything from classical ballet evenings, neoclassical pieces, contemporary works, to musical theatre productions.
