Avant Chamber Ballet

Help us welcome new company members for the 2026-27 season - plus a promotion alert!

Kiley White was born and raised in Marietta, Georgia and began her dance training at the age of 3 with the Tolbert Yilmaz School of Dance. At age 12 she was accepted into the pre-professional dance company, Roswell Dance Theatre (RDT), and trained in Ballet and Modern, which sparked her drive to gain more knowledge in different styles of dance.

At 16, she was accepted into the University of North Carolina School of the Arts (UNCSA) high school program for ballet, where she studied through her junior and senior years. She continued her education at UNCSA through their college program, where she graduated in May of 2025 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in ballet. While at UNCSA, Kiley worked with esteemed faculty such as, Eva Draw, Jennet Zerbe, Angelina Sansone, Laura Martin, and Jared Redick. She was also given the opportunity to perform various repertoire with UNCSA, including Ilya Kozadayev’s The Nutcracker, George Balanchine’s Serenade and Concerto Barocco, and Gina Patterson’s Seven Deadly Sins, among other classical and contemporary repertoire. Her studies gave her a new perspective on being a dancer and have inspired her to continue performing and sharing her love of dance with the audience.

Kiley spent the 2025-2026 season as a trainee with Avant Chamber Ballet, and is excited to be returning for the 2026-2027 season at ACB as an apprentice!
