Teddy Forance

Teddy grew up surrounded by dance as the fourth generation to live in his family’s studio, the Hackworth School of Performing Arts in Massachusetts. He took his career to a professional level at the age of 17 by traveling throughout Greece as a dancer for international pop star Anna Vissi. In the years following, Teddy partnered with many esteemed choreographers including Michaels, where he assisted the Celine Dion Taking Chances tour, as well as performing as a lead dancer on Cirque du Soleil's Delerium. Well-known for his work with seasons two and three of the Fox reality show So You Think You Can Dance, he received an honorary Emmy nomination. Teddy has begun to carve his career on the Dancing with the Stars stage as well, both as a featured performer and as a choreographer for Julianne Hough and Kenny Wormald. He has also performed with award-winning artists including Lady Gaga on American Idol, Usher at the American Music Awards, Florence and the Machine at the MTV Video Music Awards, among others, and choreographed for Kelly Clarkson on the American Music Awards. Currently, he teaches around the world for JUMP Dance Convention. Teddy is a founding member of the Los Angeles based dance company Shaping Sound.
