Blanken uses a mindful approach to ballet technique with a focus on body awareness, kinesthetic learning, musicality and movement dynamics.  He nurtures specific ballet qualities including classicism, aplomb, and use of epaulement to create resilience suitable for recreational to professional dancers. The class is comprehensive but straightforward with emphasis on creating efficient movement patterns.  

Billy has taught at Peridance, SUNY Purchase Conservatory of Dance, the Jakarta Intercultural School, the Rioult Dance Center, the National School in Tirana, Albania, Ball State University, Wright State University, Gibney Dance, Northwest Florida Ballet, Logrea Dance Academy, and others.
