Joshua Ponton

Artist

Originally from Hercules, CA, Joshua Ponton began formal training in high school at Oakland School for the Arts in California under the instruction of Reginal Ray Savage and Alison Hurley. After high school, Joshua found numerous opportunities to experience and connect with many knowledgeable teachers and mentors throughout his time working and attending several dance summer programs including UNCSA and Alonzo King LINES.

After completing his BFA at UNCSA in 2022, Joshua chose to dedicate his energy, time, and spirit toward his goal of connecting with audiences through performance. Passionate and hungry to communicate expressively through movement, Joshua is excited to stretch his dance career far across multiple planes of creativity while also exploring his artistic horizon. He is eager and energized for the opportunities that lay ahead of him.
