Eliot Feld (born July 5, 1942) is an American modern ballet choreographer, performer, teacher, and director.
Later, Feld joined American Ballet Theatre, leaving at age 25 to form his own company.
[5][6] Feld was also instrumental in the creation of the Lawrence A. Wien Center for Dance & Theater at 890 Broadway in New York City.
In 1997, Feld merged the New York City Public School for Dance and Feld Ballet into Ballet Tech, providing a unified organization, and establishing a professional performing outlet for the school's graduates.
[7] Feld's choreography also appeared in the revival of the Broadway musical On the Town (2001), performed in Central Park.
"The down of one, the up of the other — both beauties attracted me, I think I've spent my choreographic life trying in some way to reconcile, cope, deal with these two elements.
Feld's works are varied and contain anything from off-beat music to aerobic exercises, including somersaults, push-ups, sprints, leaps, and calisthenics.
