Congratulations to Dallas Ballet Company Class of 2026 senior company member, Allison Vandermosten! Allison is a graduate of Highland Park High School. In the fall, she will attend Cornell University to study Business Economics with plans to continue her training in dance.

Allison discovered her passion for classical ballet at DBC, where she trained under the artistic direction of Judy and Brent Klopfenstein since the age of three while also studying contemporary, jazz and hip hop. Additionally, she has been a proud member of DBC Tap Connection. Allison has tremendously enjoyed performing with DBCo , more recently as a soloist in Paquita & Coppelia, Fairy of Passion in Sleeping Beauty, Dulcinea in Don Quixote, and Waltz of the Flowers Lead in The Nutcracker. Over the years, Allison has treasured the experience of teaching younger dancers, the opportunity to bring dance to Children’s Medical Center and Juliette Fowler Seniors, the memories created on tour with Stars of Tomorrow International, performing at Youth America Grand Prix as well as Regional Dance America festivals. As a recipient of DBCo Merit Scholarships, she is grateful for the summer intensive training opportunities at American Ballet Theater in New York City, Boston Ballet, Pacific Northwest Ballet, and Dutch National Ballet. Allison extends her heartfelt gratitude to her family for their loving support, to her teachers for their valuable mentorship, her artistic directors for their inspirational guidance, and to the DBCo dancers for making each season with the company so meaningful.

We are incredibly proud to call Allison a Dallas Ballet Company Alum!
