Anthony Raimondi to Teach Master Class at CaRu NJ Studio


Pennington, NJ - CaRu Entertainment is proud to welcome professional dancer Anthony Raimondi to its NJ studio on September 18 for a master class with the 2013 CaRuCrew.

Anthony began his dance training at the age of ten at Horizons Dance Center in Brooklyn, NY, where he explored classes in Ballet, Jazz, Tap and Hip Hop with well-known choreographers and teachers - Tyce Diorio, Mary Kate Felber, Derrick Yanford, Andrew Turtletaub, KC Castellano, Linda Abbate-Machado and Rachel Bachietto. Anthony recently graduated from the University of Arizona with a BFA in Dance and a BS in Business Marketing. While attending the University of Arizona, he had the opportunity to perform works created by the school's world-renowned faculty as well as works created by the well-known artists and icons Mia Michaels and Donald McKale.

Immediately following graduation, Anthony began performing with Giordano Jazz Dance Chicago, in which he was given the opportunity to perform works by Jon Lehrer, David Robison, Kiesha LaLama and Christopher Huggins alongside the main company. In 2009, Anthony had the chance to compete with the Top 150 dancers in So You Think You Can Dance "Vegas Week," and has performed for a number of different commercial venues across the United States including fashion shows, commercials and music videos.
