Supporting and empowering young dancers in their journey
from ballet school to the professional stage.
Mission
The Ballet Brotherhood exists so that no young man crossing from ballet school into a professional career does it alone. Born from Remi Wagner's story, and from what his loss revealed about young men in ballet — more opportunity, less support — we surround them with mentorship, scholarship, and health & wellness care, built around the values Remi lived by: work ethic, teamwork, dedication, and kindness.
Vision
We envision a ballet world where male loneliness is treated as the documented, preventable crisis it is — where every young man has a mentor who has walked the path before him, a brotherhood he doesn't have to earn his way into, and support in place before he falls out, burns out, or checks out. Remi Forward, Always.
Mission
The Green Room is the school ballet never gave you. Through an on-demand Professional Readiness Credential — six core courses plus electives — we teach every dancer, every gender, from ballet school through the first years of company life, the life and business skills almost none of them are formally taught.
Vision
We envision a professional dance world where "nobody teaches you this" is no longer true for anyone — where every dancer steps into a company already equipped to manage their own career, and where the Professional Readiness Credential is recognized by schools and companies alike as proof a dancer is ready for what's next.

The ShamRockk Foundation is a heartfelt tribute to our beloved Remi Wagner, dedicated to supporting young male ballet dancers as they navigate the challenging transition from ballet school to the professional world.
The ShamRockk Foundation's Ballet Brotherhood program is dedicated to transforming young men in ballet into mentally and physically strong, artistically refined, and professionally prepared members of the ballet community. Rooted in the values that defined Remi’s journey—work ethic, teamwork, dedication, and kindness—we strive to create a program where participation is not just an opportunity, but a distinction.
To be part of the ShamRockk Foundation is to embody these qualities, developing not just technical skill, but the resilience, professionalism, and character that make a dancer truly exceptional.
Through mentorship, health and wellness, training, and career guidance, we are building a future where ballet companies recognize and seek out ShamRockk dancers—not just for their ability, but for their integrity, adaptability, and unwavering dedication to their craft and colleagues.
To be part of the ShamRockk Foundation means to be supported, challenged, and elevated—to step into the professional world with confidence, preparation, and the backing of an exceptional community of mentors. It is a badge of honor, a testament to both talent and the values that make a dancer stand out in any company.

Pivot Dancer was created by Dinah Hampson, an Olympic and Paralympic sport & dance physiotherapist, to bridge the gap between elite sports medicine and the real-world needs of dancers at every level. Every class and program on Pivot Dancer is informed by the same evidence-based principles used to assess and treat professional dancers and high-performance athletes in clinic—meaning it’s not just “conditioning,” it’s injury-aware training. Pivot Dancer connects dancers worldwide through live classes, on-demand content, expert-led education, and community chats, so dancers train together across time zones while learning how to dance longer, stronger, and pain-free.
