Vita
Ioannis Edgar wurde in Griechenland als Sohn armenischer Eltern geboren und wuchs dort auf. Er begann in jungen Jahren mit dem Tanzen und erkundete verschiedene Stile wie Ballett, Hip-Hop, Tango und Street Latin, bevor er sich schließlich auf zeitgenössischen Tanz spezialisierte. Mit 18 Jahren zog er nach Athen, um an der National School of Dance (K.S.O.T.) Tanz zu studieren. Nach zwei Jahren setzte er seine Studien mit einem Stipendium an der House of Performing Arts in Athen fort, wo er eine umfassende Ausbildung in verschiedenen Tanzdisziplinen erhielt, einschließlich zeitgenössischer Tanztechniken, Improvisation und choreografischer Komposition. In den folgenden Jahren engagierte er sich als freiberuflicher Tänzer in der griechischen Tanzszene. 2021 entschied er sich, seine Studien im dritten Jahr der professionellen Tanzschule AKTINA fortzusetzen, wo er mit einem Diplom in Tanzpädagogik abschloss. Parallel zu seiner Ausbildung unterrichtete, tanzte und choreografierte er im Bereich des zeitgenössischen Tanzes und ließ sich dabei von seinem vielfältigen Tanzhintergrund inspirieren. Von 2022 bis 2024 war Ioannis Edgar Mitglied der wee dance company und ist seit der aktuellen Theatersaison Teil der Tanzcompagnie des Gerhart-Hauptmann-Theater Görlitz-Zittau.
