Now entering his twelfth season with Colorado Ballet, Soloist Bryce Lee has performed a wide range of roles, from virtuosic classical parts to richly theatrical characters. He is drawn to roles that challenge both his technical skill and his dramatic versatility.
Bryce began his dance journey at age 12 in a musical theater dance class in Oxnard, California, and soon after began formal ballet training with Dmitri and Jennifer Kulev at Dmitri Kulev Classical Ballet Academy in Laguna Hills. Within a year, he earned scholarships and placements at leading programs including American Ballet Theatre, Boston Ballet, Colorado Ballet, Miami City Ballet, and the School of American Ballet, where he studied under New York City Ballet luminaries such as Jock Soto, Andrei Kramarevsky, Peter Frame, and Darci Kistler. As a student, he received top honors at competitions worldwide, including Los Angeles Music Center Spotlight, KAR, Youth America Grand Prix New York Finals, and winning YAGP Europe for Pas de Deux.
With Colorado Ballet, Bryce has performed works by acclaimed choreographers such as Jirí Kylián, Twyla Tharp, Yuri Possokhov, and George Balanchine, as well as in beloved classics like Giselle and Swan Lake. Featured roles include Nutcracker Prince in The Nutcracker, Benno in Swan Lake, Bluebird in The Sleeping Beauty, Principal Pas in Balanchine’s Rubies, The Scarecrow in Septime Webre’s The Wizard of Oz, Renfield in Michael Pink’s Dracula, and Twyla Tharp’s In the Upper Room.
Outside the studio, Bryce is the founder and Artistic Director of The Male Dance Connection, a global training initiative that leverages technology to connect and mentor young male dancers worldwide. He holds an Associate of Arts in Elementary Education and will graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Marketing in December 2025.
