Isaac Owens
Dancer, Collaborator
Isaac Owens was born in Landstuhl, Germany, and raised in South Carolina. He studied contemporary dance at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and The Fine Arts Center of Greenville, SC, under the tutelage of Madame Jan Woodward. Isaac also dances as a full-time member of Periapsis Music and Dance (directed by Jonathan Katz) and is a regular guest artist for XAOC Contemporary Ballet (dir. Eryn Young) and touche pas (dir. Rachel Rizzuto). Isaac first became intrigued by dance watching performers in music videos and movies like The Wiz, Flashdance, and Fame. He constantly imagined himself performing for many audiences when he was younger. Isaac is grateful every day to see that dreams do come true.
