Anthony Pucci

Anthony, born and raised in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, began his dance training at Studio Dance under Michele Burke. He attended the University of Iowa, where he received a B.F.A. in Dance Performance and Choreography. While attending university, he had the privilege to perform extensively in faculty, graduate, and undergraduate work — most notably a site-specific work at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia with the visually stunning Tori Lawrence & Co, as well as an evening-length work exploring energy cultures at an Anthroprocene symposium hosted by the University of Wyoming with Incite Insight Arts. Anthony danced for the past four years with Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre in their productions of Carmen, Don Giovanni, and others. Anthony is also a 200-hour certified yoga instructor through the Yoga Alliance. Anthony originally joined NW Dance Project in 2017.
