🌊 Meet Company Member: Ali-asha Polson 🌊
Ali-asha Polson, 22, was born and raised in Bay Shore, New York. He began his dance training at the age of five at the Vennettes Cultural Workshop. In 2014, he expanded his studies in classical ballet at the Ohman School of Ballet. Two years later, he was awarded a scholarship to The Ailey School while attending the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts.
In May 2025, Polson graduated magna cum laude from Fordham University/The Ailey School with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. Since his junior year, he has been training with TDA prep (the dance artist prep) in Chicago under the mentorship of Preston Miller and Jacqueline Green at their studio in Carol Stream, Illinois. Through his continued work with TDA, Polson has been developing his artistic voice and refining his craft as a performer and creator.
He has performed in numerous works and galas with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, including the City Center Season and the Spirit Gala, as well as at the Dance Theatre of Harlem Vision Gala. Polson has had the privilege of working with acclaimed choreographers such as Hope Boykin, Rena Butler, Christopher Huggins, Levi Marsman, Tracy Inman, and Carolyn Dorfman.

This special combo pulling from iconic work from Bob Fosse’s repertoire was so much fun to learn. A big thank you to the extraordinary Jessica Lee Goldyn for her amazing direction while teaching this amazing combination. Thank you, Noah Fosse, for stopping by and sharing your wise words with us on Thursday! It has been a pleasure getting to learn this legendary work. 🕺🏾
