ALAN HINELINE
“Hineline successfully integrates classical ballet with contemporary dance movement in a way that encourages one to view both styles anew. He propels the dancers through space on pointe one second, but in the next moment, is just as likely to have them turn by pivoting on their heels, jutting their hips out to the side.”
- The Kansas City Star
Dynamic, spontaneous, witty and exciting are only a few of the adjectives that have been used to describe the work of New York City-based choreographer and ballet master Alan Hineline. A sought-after choreographer and teacher, Hineline’s work has appeared in the repertories of many companies in North America and has been received enthusiastically in performances around the globe.
In 1997, at the invitation of artistic director Marcia Dale Weary, Hineline was named resident choreographer for the Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet. During those eleven years he has created numerous ballets for this internationally acclaimed school and company. His body of work can be seen in the repertories of American Ballet Theatre Studio Company, Pennsylvania Ballet, Atlanta Ballet, Dayton Ballet, Kansas City Ballet, The Juilliard Dance Ensemble, Sacramento Ballet, Alabama Ballet, Ballet Concierto de Cuba, and Utah Regional Ballet, among many others. His work has been performed at the New York International Ballet Competition, the Aoyama International Ballet Festival in Tokyo, Japan and the International Ballet Competition in Jackson, Mississippi.
As a teacher Mr. Hineline has instructed every level of dancer, from beginner through professional. He is part of the faculty of the Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet and has been a guest faculty member for among others, Ballet Academy East, The Juilliard School, Atlanta Ballet, Kansas City Ballet, Richmond Ballet, Alabama Ballet, and the Utah Regional Ballet. Along with these fine schools he has taught at the Jackson International Ballet Competition, the Aoyama Ballet Festival, and numerous Regional Dance America (RDA) festivals and at colleges and universities across the United States. In 2008 he will be a faculty member of the Jacob’s Pillow Summer Dance Festival.
As a dancer his career spanned a broad spectrum of traditions and styles. Hineline trained primarily in Dayton, Ohio with Dance Theatre Dayton and Dayton Contemporary Dance Company and afterwards with Milton Myers and David Howard. His company affiliations ranged from the classical with Eglevsky Ballet and Nashville Ballet to modern with Joyce Trisler Danscompany and Michael Mao Dance to post-modern with Laura Dean Dancers and Musicians.
Mr. Hineline sits on the national advisory board of Regional Dance America and, for that organization, has served as an adjudicator for several regions and as artistic director for the Craft of Choreography Conference. Hineline is the founder and director of the Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet’s choreographic initiative, Choreoplan. Among his many awards are the Choo-San Goh Award for Choreography from the Choo-San Goh and H. Robert Magee Foundation and multiple National Choreography Awards from Regional Dance America.
Hineline will take helm of Ballet Philippines in May 2008.
