Carlos Acosta is the Chairman and Founder of the Acosta Dance Foundation and considered, perhaps, the most famous dancer of his generation. Carlos is a career that wasn’t meant to be – a tough kid from the backstreets of Havana who was forced to study ballet and became a reluctant star. His combination of talent, dedication and charisma has taken him to perform on the most famous stages worldwide. Among them are Paris Ballet, the Russian Ballet and the Royal Ballet. Acosta is that rarest of things – a ballet dancer who has pirouetted into the public consciousness. Sine 2011, the Foundation he founded has significantly impacted the lives of hundreds of dancers and students worldwide. Since its creation, Carlos has delivered significant changes in how people access and use dance services and the structure of global dance markets.
