Sophia Bovet, age seventeen, is a part of the new generation of dancers who are mastering the elegant level of artistry needed to be successful and the high demand of athleticism within the art. Her love for movement began very early, starting her first ballet classes at the age of five. With an infectious can-do attitude and ferocious fearlessness, Sophia has propelled in her passion since those early years. By acknowledging the value of hard work and dedication, Sophia has been fortunate enough to train in a variety of technical and quality environments. Her distinctive hunger to progress in dance has allowed her the opportunity to grow her resume, reputation and repertory.

When performing, Sophia offers an authentic and sincere picture of exquisite grace and beauty. She is just as beautiful and graceful off stage, but there's a delightful and engaging integrity about her personality. Humbled by the opportunities ballet has presented to her, Sophia isn’t letting any opportunity go unfollowed. Sophia is currently an Apprentice of Festival Ballet Theatre, performing lead roles like Clara and Dew Drop in The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, Ophelia, Firebird, and others. She is continuing her instruction in advanced and sophisticated approaches at Southland Ballet Academy under the direction of Salwa Rizkalla.

Sophia has had the privilege of being mentored and trained by many notable ballet professionals, including Fabrice Calmels, Larissa Saveliev, and Yuri Fateev. Sophia was even provided the opportunity to take many distinctively personalized private lessons under now current A&A Ballet Owners, Alexei Kremnev  and Anna Reznik. She has attended summer intensives through the Paris Opera Ballet, Bolshoi Ballet, Royal Ballet and the San Francisco Ballet, as well as a short term scholarship from the San Francisco Ballet.

Sophia's dance story began at The Academy of the Arts in Jackson, Michigan. She then commuted nearly 7 hours weekly to pursue her career as a professional dancer at the Joffrey Ballet Academy in Chicago. Sophia was cast in the Joffrey Nutcracker and had the honor of performing with The Joffrey Ballet at historic Auditorium Theater of Roosevelt University in Chicago.
