Raimi Neal
Raimi grew up in a family of artists, musicians, and performers in the
Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, where they developed an enduring passion
for the fine arts. They received comprehensive training in various
dance genres and studied classical violin both privately and as a
member of city, regional, and state orchestras. In 2021, their
dedication to music led them to the Boston area, where they pursued a
scholarship in Violin Performance at the Boston Conservatory of Music.
While at the Conservatory, Raimi minored in dance, furthering their
skills through the Contemporary and Commercial Dance programs.
Since moving to Boston, Raimi has become an enthusiastic part of the
local dance community. They train and perform with Isiah “Zay”
Beasley’s Boston-based Hip Hop company MlzMvmnt (MVRZ), teach
Commercial-Style Heels, and regularly take classes at Boston Dance
Studios. In addition to performing they enjoy collaborating on dance
visuals, modeling, and photography projects with fellow artists.
Season 30 marks Raimi’s eighth season performing with DanceWorks
Boston and their fourth season as a choreographer. They are extremely
grateful for the creative opportunities DanceWorks has provided them,
as well its vibrant and welcoming community, and is excited to begin
this season’s rehearsals!
